In the most recent spotify update, any catagory of music except for "Albums" and "Artists" has been removed. "Artists" now only shows the artists you follow, and "Albums" now only show full albums that you have saved (so if you have one or two songs saved in that album, it won't show up there). There is currently no way to change this back to the old layout, and this is inconvenient if you would like to see your entire library under "albums" and "artists."    Spotify should, consequently, either return to the previous layout or add an option for these two tabs to organize your entire library. This will make it far more convenient for Spotify users to access their library, as well as listen to music from specific albums or artists without being forced to listen to the entire discography of an artist or an entire album if they do not wish to do so.   Attached belowis an image the new layout for reference.   ...

Please add the dislike button to the Premium Membership users account either in the search list or at the bottom where the heart option is. It is a feature already implemented in the Free account search option. The lack of it means Premium Members have less control of what is offered and the direct result is a less enjoyable experience than those who are not paying, and means we have less valued individual tastes. ...

Revert the change that removed the screen staying on while plugged into charge. This feature was ideal when driving so you could see what was on without having to touch phone. At home this was great to display on phone/ipad so everyone could use spotify rather than having to pass them to somebody to unlock. Removing this has no benefit and makes the app a lot more unpractical. This change should have been made as an option for the user to decide wether they wanted to lock or not.    Any solutions provided involve using another app for this feature to work. This is not a solution.  ... View more

I and many other Spotify users are annoyed by the widget removal. I use it every day, multiple times a day. This morning I used the widget and by this evening it was gone. It's enough of an inconvenience that I'd stop paying for premium and use a competitor app that does have a widget, like Pandora. Spotify's twitter handle is @Spotifycares. Well, if Spotify does care about its users, then they'll bring the widget back. ... View more

I never expected to have to post this but the new Spotify update has outraged me so much I'm forced to bring my issues up here, in the hope that Spotify will do something about it.    The new update has done nothing but send the app (both desktop and mobile) backwards and has just become less accessible as it no longer works in the way you expect a music player to do so.   Firstly, no longer being able to view your saved library songs by artists is something that baffles me. I've always got to the music I want to listen to this way and it was a great way to shuffle all saved songs of one particular artist. Now you choose which artists to follow and that only takes you through to the artist page.    Also now when you save an album to your library you can only access them through the albums section. All the songs within the album aren't added to the song section. Like, seriously. You save the album, but not the very songs that make up the album. Therefore if you want to access the album in both places you have to save it as an album, then save each song individually as well.   Don't fret though as the albums you saved before the update are still in both sections. But, wait... If you want to remove one of those albums from you library, the songs will remain and you are left to remove each one individually. Lovely.   This is all before I've got to the specific issues with the mobile app (for me Android). Another side-effect of the change to artists in your library you can no longer download all the saved music you have under a specific artists. So you have to download each album/song. It's also really hard to navigate to specific albums/songs you have downloaded - so there's that as well.    Want to filter your library down so you can get to exaclty what you listen to? Well you can't do that any more.    As much as I've ranted in this I really just want the old Spotify back. I used to use it everyday without fail: in work, at home, on the move. All the artists, albums and songs I love so much all easy to access on the app. I've been more reluctant to use it recently as it's just not accessible any more. It seems it's been angled more for those who create and listen to playlists - which is not everyone.    For the first time ever I started to look at what other options I have available in terms of accssing and playing music. I really hope I don't have to move elsewhere and that Spotify sort this out soon.      ... View more

In the hookahbars, bars, clubs and ect. you often sit and think you'd rather listen to another music. My idea is that the bars create a playlist for their customers, and these people who are there can choose what should be heard next and thus determine the playlist themselves. Here every customer who uses spotify can decide what will run next and is therefore forced to get spotify. There could also be the option to add songs to the playlist if the owner of the playlist allows it.  ... View more

So when are you going to roll back to the previous version of the mobile app? Honestly, this has to be one of the single most unpopular updates I've ever seen birthed into this world. Did nobody who designed this stop for even a second and think that, amongst other things, removing the recently played section from library was, in fact, NOT a good idea? Nobody reckoned that would be a bad move?   Honestly, I've been using premium for 4, probably nearly 5 years now. But if there's no reverting to the previous version, or at the very bare minimum, a reinstatement of the recently played, I'm gone. Done. C'est fini! And no, the 4 or 5 albums on the home page "recently played" section do not count in the slightest. Especially considering one of them is the naff video explaining this terrible update. ...

Theres a list of letters on the right hand side to help navigate songs when theyre in alphabetical order... it was super helpful and I used it all the time. Mine suddenly disappeared though :-( Is this a new update or did i change it somehow?  ... View more

Basically what the title says: make it so that upon liking an album in any spotify app, all the individual songs within it are liked as well. Or if you wish the user to have that ultimate choice, make it a settings option. ... View more

Recently Played is currently at the top of the mobile app but users cannot press and hold to delete items that show up there. PLEASE let us do this - I want to control the music I have in Recently Played. It's been annoying since the update in July. Thanks for the consideration. ... View more

This was previously possible, but as of the latest UI update i cant seem to find a way to view a list of all of my liked/saved songs. A compilation of every individual song i have from every playlist and every album is very useful, i would shuffle play that for a completely random song of one of the many genres i listen to. It used to be within the “your library” tab, under another tab titled “songs”. But a few weeks/months ago the update changed this and removed the feature. Now the only options are playlists, artists, and albums no “songs” tab. But at least now there is a podcasts tab which i never use. If there is still a way to do this on mobile i cant figure out how. If the feature was completely removed from mobile... why would you do that.  ... View more

I want to be able to "tune in" to a user. For example, say my friend Joe is listening to music in his car, I want the option to join him, that is, when i click "follow Joe", my Spotify will play exactly what Joe's Spotify is playing, even if he manually changes the music he is listening to. This would then happen until I click "unfollow Joe". If Joe stops playing music, I automatically "tune out" of Joe's Spotify. ... View more

Remember before the update that got rid of the old Your Library tab? Yeah, bring that back. I want an artist's tab that shows every artist in my library, not just the followed ones and then a random list of all the other artists I have saved.  And the songs tab. None of this playlist with every possible song in it garbage. And please, most of all, PLEASE bring back the list view of recently played everything!  Albums, artists, playlists, whatever it be.  And if course, the ability to SAVE AN ALBUM.  I don't listen to track based artists. I LISTEN TO ALBUMS. So let me save that album with one click.  The new user interface is probably great for some people. I hate it. Reddit hates it. So, just give us a nice little button we can press in settings to select which UI we want to use. Please, it's been 1 day and I hate the new UI. It feels like I list a bunch of stuff for the podcasts tab. I don't listen to podcasts. So give me the option to change it.  Please spotify. I'm begging you.  I love the statistics I get through you guys, I love the end of year review, but this UI makes me want to check out Apple music or sound cloud go or something else.  ... View more

There is a "don't like" option that I believe used to allow you to block a song or artist. I had something come up and couldn't find the option to never play that song again. I  would like to be able to use the "don't like" to block an entire artist or an entire song in radio, daily mixes and the 'keep it going' after an album finishes. It would also be great if you could search for an artist (Faith No More, for example) and then either block them or an annoying song you hate (Epic, for example).  ... View more

Update 17/2/14 - Almost 2 years ago I submitted this idea, and in the last few weeks, the number of Kudos email notifcations I receive daily is getting even more frequent. Thanks to everyone who keep's voting it up, I didn't think it would get 10 votes let alone over 1,000! Clearly it's popular but not as straight forward to develop hence the 'Not Right Now' status from Spotify, but keep the voting! The most rated ideas are getting developed and it's just a matter of time before this one does too.    Thanks!   ------------------   I'd like to see a miniplayer and mini controls for Spotify that could sit in the taskbar (Windows and Mac!)   The idea came about, after I kept maximising and minimising Spotify just to see my play queue and sometimes jump down a few . This is my solution making it a less obtrusive way of seeing what's coming up and track jumping.      ... View more

I used to be able to "Save" an album and go through and remove the tracks I didn't want, like live songs on a deluxe album.  Now that "Save" has been replaced with "Like", all the albums I had saved now include every song from the album with no way to remove them and even though "Like" is not selected for the songs I don't want it still plays everything on the album, not just the likes songs.  This is so frustrating.  I didn't have the songs saved for a reason, now I have no choice unless I want to turn all of my saved albums into seperate playlists.  Frustrating. ...

It'd be really interesting to see what tastes you have in common with people you meet. Would be a great way to help promote the use of the new "Listen Together" feature because it would show artists/playlists that you both like, making choosing what to listen to a more fun and interactive experience. ...
