Now that Spotify is investing more in video, I think it's important to allow for flexibility in how users watch videos on their devices.   By allowing for Picture-in-Picture (PiP), users would be able to play Spotify videos in the background, which is not only a major enhancement to the current experience, but is also more consistent with how audio works in Spotify.   On iOS and Mac, more and more apps are adopting the native PiP functionality, including Safari, YouTube, Twitch, etc. I think it would be good for Spotify to do the same. ...

I would like the option to permanently dislike a featured artist like on mobile that I can choose for "Don't play this artist" e.g for several weeks now various artists and gamechops have appeared in my release calendar. I have absolutely no interest in this band   But I dont have the option to remove the featured artist, which just means the following week a new artist pop ups with gamechops as featured and I have no way to prevent this. I have event tried blocking gamechops on android but makes no difference     ... View more

I want to be able to opt-out of Spotify's A/B testing. You've taken away canvas from me, as well as a plethora of other great features in the name of testing.   Please allow at least paying users the ability to opt-out of being in A/B testing groups so I keep the features I'm paying for and have come to expect. This is a horrible user experience for people like me that are paying $15 a month on a family plan and not getting all the features that even my friends on free plans get. ... View more

Can a search bar please be added on top of the list of playlists that appears when you're adding a song to a playlist? It's really impractical having to scroll through all of your playlists to add one song, especially  if you have al lot of them.  Thanks ... View more

Recently, Spotify (at least in my iOS app) has added a very helpful feature which is lyrics. It finally collaborated with Musixmatch (thanks God why haven't you done this sooner).   Problem is, I am an Indonesian listener who is familiar with Latin alphabet. I loved many Asian songs, which we know, are not written in language using those Latin alphabets, namely K-Pop, J-Pop, or you name it. Those songs' lyrics are still shown in their original alphabet (K-Pop in hangeul, J-Pop in kanji and hiragana, etc). Usually, foreign listeners are able to sing-a-long by looking at the romanization version.   Now I know that Musixmatch indeed does not have that romanization lyrics, but Genius does and I know Spotify has partnership too with Genius, I guess? So, why not give a choice for listeners to choose between Genius or Musixmatch?   TL;DR: 1. We want romanized lyrics to Asian songs or any songs not using Latin alphabet 2. Give options for Spotify listeners to choose which version to show 3. If Spotify can no longer show Genius' service, push Musixmatch so that they make romanized lyrics available.   Sincerely, Global Spotify member. ... View more

I'd love to send a “share” request to another user to listen to the same song at the same time. The user that sends the request won't be able to listen to the song until the other person accepts or declines it, and you'll have the option to comment on the tune you're listening to so the other users on the party know what makes that song special. The request will include the message “I'd like you to listen to this with me”. I think that could be a very attractive feature nowadays.  ... View more

There are many keyboard shortcuts in the Spotify Desktop app, but not one to simply add the playing song to liked songs. The only way to do this is to use the mouse to click the very small heart icon. I have Spotify minimised most of the time or on a screen that's switched off, so the process of "liking" a song is long-winded and i frequently don't bother even though I would like to save the song.    A simple keyboard shortcut like Ctrl + or Ctrl L would be great!!! So I don't have to even look at the app.    I've found a couple of previous ideas to bring this in as a feature, together they reached much more than 100 votes.  Please take this into consideration!   Thank you   https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Desktop-Add-shortcuts-hotkeys-to-like-amp-dislike-songs/idi-p/4659618 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Keyboard-shortcut-to-star-the-playing-song/idi-p/24551 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Keyboard-Shortcut-to-Add-a-Song-to-Your-Music/idi-p/12... https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Desktop-Keyboard-Shortcut-to-Save-Song-to-Your-Music/i... https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Desktop-Radio-Global-keyboard-shotcuts-to-like-dislike... https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Desktop-Global-Hotkey-for-thumbs-up-and-down/idi-p/325... ...

I’ve been listening to Podcasts for a year or two now and one of the biggest components of a great podcast is the comment section.   This is vital for a podcasts success because the comment section is where a podcasts community can connect with each other, which gives the podcast a little bit of flavor   If Spotify can add a comment section to its podcasts page, then it will most definitely kill YouTube podcasting and give you guys most of the market share 😉   and i know you guys love market share ...

As we can see and check what are the current top 50 global songs (or national),  I think that a section in the Spotify app displaying the monthly most listened artists could be useful for more clarity and stats. There is currently no place in Spotify where we can see such a ranking, and to be informed of who is going in or out of the top 500 would be great ! (as it is added on the artist profile as soon as they enter the top 500). ... View more

Can we get podcast speed options on chrome web player? My phone died and I am sadly forced to listen to my podcasts on my laptop. I used to listen to my podcasts at 1.8x or 2x speed on the mobile app, and as this is not an option on desktop, I am greatly inconvenienced and disappointed in Spotify. Thank you. ... View more

There have been many posts about improving the UI for podcasts within the Spotify app. But the more reasonable architectural decision seems to be to use a separate app for podcasts / audiobooks. Trying to cram too much into the spotify music app is confusing; it bloats the experience and distracts the user.   As an episodic medium with repeat consumption and curation, podcasts are just very different than traditional music. In particular, once I've decided to listen to a podcast, the likelihood of me wanting to listen to music is extremely low - podcast-specific search, prioritization and discovery is much worse when mixed up with musical content.  ...

Hello all, The idea is really simple: Spotify can now be controlled with Siri for IOS, but not with Siri for MacOS. It would be very appreciated if the Spotify staff would look into this option and keep their customers up to date on the subject, as I believe this is a very much requested option. It's quite frustrating knowing that a Spotify function is available on a 200$ old iPhone but not on a  brand new 3000$ MacBook. If it's simply not possible to integrate Spotify in Siri for MacOS, then it is what it is, but at least find a way to keep in touch with the customers about what steps have been taken and will be taken.  Thanks in advance!

Seems simple enough, give me an option to flag a song as "Do Not Play"....ever (until I choose to unflag)!  Let's say I am listening to an album and I just detest a song on it, I would love that song to be automatically skipped every time I listen to that album.  While I do understand I can make a custom playlist, alter queue....etc, a simple right click and choice of "Do Not Play" would be really really nice, assuming it sticks forever. Thank you for considering ... View more

I often use my iPad, via mobile hotspot, as a “remote control” for the Spotify app running on my iPhone (which has the data plan). This allows me to switch tracks, like music, etc. while working on the iPad without having to use my limited mobile hotspot data.   However, “hiding” a track from a list (daily mix, radio etc.) does not transfer from the iPad’s playlist to the current playlist running on the iPhone. Therefore, ”hide song” also does not force a skip to the next track.  Similarly, hidden tracks on the iPhone are not displayed as such on the iPad. This makes curating lists of music using multiple devices frustrating at best. It’s important to note that “liking” a track does in fact immediately sync to the other devices and therefore hiding a track should also be possible. Thank You.   Add on: Also, please fix “hide song” so that it syncs to all playlists throughout my account.  If I don’t want to hear a song, I NEVER want to hear it again.  This alone makes listening to multiple Daily Mixes unbearably annoying at times. ...
