The swipe to queue and add track to library gestures are no longer working on any Artist's "Popular" songs. The gestures still work in other locations such as when viewing albums, playlists, or searched songs. This feature is important to me because when a song comes on from an artist I haven't listened to and like, I visit artists pages and queue up their Popular songs to see if I like some of their other releases. This allows me to easily and quickly save the songs and artist if I like them or pass them up and continue with my playlist/radio if I do not. The ease of access is especially important while I'm working, exercising, or driving. I'm guessing the loss of functionality has to do with the recent UI change to Artist's pages (Pictures are now a cover picture behind their artists names and follow button look and position change).

I think it would be great, if the recommmandations on the Home page would be optional. The section that contains Top Hits of the country etc. In my case, those are genres I don't listen to and I often just click somewhere else just so I don't have to see it.

It seams very clear that rumors about Child Abuse by MJ are true. Ok, he isn't judged by a jury. But, Hitler wasn't judged also. I did like his music from the beginning But, I don't want listen music by Child Abusers. Not on any way! Not by songs and not in another tracks! Why can't an artist being blocked, as a sort spam filter?

Honestly I am a power user of the net, and it took me 15 min to find the button to SUBMIT this idea! My idea is to put the SUBMIT button where it can be easily found so i can submit ideas like this one to make using the Community easier!

The option to “opt-out” of certain artists and/or content has been a recurrent need in the Spotify community – as evidenced from community posts dated 2012 requesting a feature that prevents unsubscribed artists from appearing on curated or trending playlists recommended to users by Spotify. In 2017, the “case was closed” after 4000+ up-votes with no action taken by Spotify. As paid subscribers, Spotify users can direct their support to artists, allowing for accurate “streaming numbers” that credit the artists’ work. In the same metric, paid subscribers should be able to “opt-out” of artists that they do not want to support financially (for whatever reason). I would not go out and buy a Chris Brown record because he is a misogynist abuser of women and I will not be involved in supporting his career. However, I have no way of ensuring that his content does not stream on my account when using Spotify features I pay for. If an artist get paid per stream – I require the freedom to opt-out of that artist. This is not an “up-voting” issue, but more, a fundamental membership issue that contributes to an unsafe user experience. This is not simply a matter of “not wanting to hear artists who are against my views” but rather, not wanting to support artists who are criminal offenders. I just assume this would be a priority for Spotify. It may not be a popular feature with artists, not based on the 4000+ community up-votes, it is essential to users.

It baffles me that this option was taken away, but with the latest build of Spotify, which replaced the old inbox with the very unneeded message threads, there is no way to delete messages. I was told to submit this as an idea, but I'm shocked I even have to. Next thing, I'll be submitting an idea to allow me to shut Spotify down after I'm done using it. EDIT: I'd also like to add, as some of you have, that it's somewhat disturbing to find very old messages that I "deleted" two years ago now appearing in my Messages box again. Which means Spotify held on to those private messages, even though I hit that Delete button. Not good. EDIT #2: Hi, everyone. It's been A YEAR AND A HALF since I posted this, and as you can see, even after 19 pages of comments and almost 700 kudos, Spotify hasn't done anything about it besides call it a "good idea". Thanks, Spotify. Because of this issue, and because of Spotify's reluctance to listen to the community on an issue which I feel is way more important than the color of the background, I have barely touched Spotify in the past 6-7 months. There are other alternatives these days. While they may not be perfect, at least they seem to respect my privacy more than Spotify, which is extremely important to me. Keep the comments and kudos coming, friends. I appreciate all of you backing me on this. Hopefully, Spotify will fix this issue at some point in the next decade. Until then, I'll be enjoying other streaming services. EDIT #3: Whelp. Checked back three years after initially posting this to find that the folks at Spotify deemed this invasion of privacy unimportant, and gave it a "Not Right Now", even after 1,268 votes and 33 pages of comments.Much more important that they change the font of that one band's name. Spotify Peeps, being able to delete your private messages shouldn't be an "idea" or even a "suggestion". It should be common sense. But whatever. I've been very happy over at Apple Music. I urge everyone reading this to remain on the free Spotify plan, switch to the free plan, or stop using Spotify altogether. There really are other good options out there. Farewell, and keep the comments and votes coming, people!

I think it would be awesome to have the effect of Colorflow (a jailbreak tweak) in Spotify player built in. It looks beautiful, and altho it could not be on the lockscreen having it inside the app would be slick. The best thing is it is just less than 50 lines of additional code. The attachment is a screenshot of how colorflow works. It takes dominant colors of an album and makes the player UI in that color. Isn't it beautiful?

Really loving the Google Home integration with Spotify, but I wish it had more commands. One I miss in particular is "Play [song] next" or "Add [song] to queue", just like the right-click command "Add to Queue" on desktop or the tap-and-hold "Add to Up Next" on mobile.

Hey! I just want to let you know that there's a country named Bosnia and Herzegowina in the Balkan (EUROPE). We love music. We really love music. Could it be possible to make Spotify work here? A lot of German (and other EU) people come here on vacation and feel bad, because they can't listen to their favourite music, and then we feel bad, too, beacause they're feeling bad. Please, almighty developers, please let us enjoy music, like everyone else in the world. WE WILL PAY FOR PREMIUM! This should be a constructive critic: Why is Deezer working like a charm here, but Spotify not? Please... I need answers and just one solution :) Greetings from Bosnia! P.S.: Come and visit us, we have ćevapi. ;)

A way to loop an individual song without making a playlist would be nice.
Like a option in the dropdown menu that you could use to start playing it on loop.
Thanks to @musicblaster for some nice use cases!
Use case:
As a performing artist, I use Spotify to listen to songs and would like to work out passages by repeat-playing only short segments of songs in a loop forever.
Use case:
As a hobbyist DJ, I want to use Spotify at a party and easily loop some portions of songs.
Use case:
When running a haunted house, I want to play just the few creepy sound effects of this one song forever.

I think there needs to be more compatible Alexa commands such as: - Alexa add this song to my [playlist] playlist - Alexa play songs from the same album as this one - Alexa shuffle this artist - Alexa play [song] from this album - Alexa play song with lyrics... - Alexa shuffle my library even if you have to say 'Alexa ask Spotify to...' that would be better, there just simply needs to be more commands as it feels bearly functional without them.

when you want to find a particular podcast you listened to it's hard to remember exactly who posted it and what date it was released (you have to scroll through all podcasts to find the one you want). By allowing people to search a particual word or the title of the podcast in the search bar and it to come up (or others with such phrasing) it can help find that podcast quicker. Also this helps if you want to listen to a podcast on a certain subject. Thank you :)

Can we get support for Adaptive Icons introduced with Android 8.0? Currently Android app icons have varying shapes and this results in a really disorganized feel. Recently some device manufacturers (Samsung for example) attempted to solve cohesiveness issues of icons by just having a white backdrop with a custom shape and original app icon stamped into the middle, this approach completely ignores any input from developers and their opinion. Adaptive Icons however enables the app developer to have a lot more control over brand identity and design while maintaining a cohesive feeling. Developer can choose background and a foreground layer, it would be shaped by a mask layer provided by the launcher and that's it. Thanks for your time and here is an example from other developers https://adapticon.tooo.io

The ability to save custom eq settings on my iPhone Spotify app would be awesome. In my different listening environments I often have to adjust my EQ. It’s slightly annoying that I have to manually adjust it.

As the user f1micro said in this closed idea, it would be awesome to have a headless client for Spotify which could be controlled from a web page or from a mobile app. I also would like that the build were available to ARM/Rpi architecture. Actually, this is really important to me (: Please make it happend!! :D Thx, Sebastian.

There is a previous idea that was replied to incorrectly by Spotify - Idea 137915. The point of this request and mine is to support the ability to add podcasts by URL when a podcast is a premium (paid for) subscription. Like the original poster, I too have a podcasts that I pay to access without commercials and with extra content. Other applications allow users to add the url of the subscription directly to the podcast list. It would be very useful to have all of my podcasts and music in one app. thank you

I just made the "brave journey" to Tidal in protest of Spotify's arrogant business desicions. The reasons are so easily fixable it just makes me sad. Lately, Spotify has really shown that Spotify Community just is a place where frustrated customers can let steam out, but why even bother when posts with 7000+ votes does not even get considered? The reasons why I left (which are so easily preventable): 1. No Apple TV-app https://community.spotify.com/t5/Live-Ideas/Partnerships-Apple-TV-Support/idi-p/3629 Issue posted 2012 – 7400 votes. Before you say this is Apple's fault, may I remind you Tidal has an app? 2. No Hi-Fi option https://community.spotify.com/t5/Live-Ideas/Music-HiFi-Quality-Lossless-Streaming-16bit-44-1khz/idi-p/700006 Issue posted 2014 – 10 500 upvotes Tidal would literally go bankrupt if Spotify gave us this feature. My frustration with Spotify is summed up beautifully in this forum: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Other-Apple-TV-App-update/idi-p/4263922 " 1) Are you creating an app for Apple TV? If ‘yes’ then when will it see the light of day? If ‘no’ then see 2) 2) Are you going to create an app for Apple TV? If ‘yes’ then when? If ‘no’ then see 3) 3) Do you realize that ‘we’, your subscription customers pay your salary? If ‘yes’ then please create an app for Apple TV If ‘no’ then also please create an app for Apple TV 4) Do you even read or follow this “support” forum? If ‘yes’ then please answer us. If ‘no’ then…. nevermind. Yours sincerely, paying customer. "
