June Monthly Ideas Review

Monthly Ideas Review


Every month the Community Team reviews our Ideas Board. In this blog we'll present some of the ones we’ve updated in the past month!

 

IMPLEMENTED:

1.  Sorting Options for List of Playlists

With the recent update to Your Library on mobile, it's now possible to sort and filter your Playlists, Artists and Albums in more ways. 

 

To find the filters, just pull down on the tab you're on, select filters and then choose the one you'd like. The 'Custom Order' filter on the Playlist section will mirror the order you have on Desktop - which means it's now possible to maintain the way your organise your tunes on Desktop across to Mobile. 

 

2. Bring Back Albums' Length

3. Add & Remove Content separately (Artist, Album, Songs)

4. Car View

5. Bring back the old Web Player

 

GOOD IDEA:

6. Spotify in Ukraine

Spotify is launching regularly in countries around the world. Please keep an eye on the Spotify blog or signup here to be first to hear if we reach Ukraine.

 

NOT RIGHT NOW:

7. Add complete Playlists to the Queue

 

We just wanted to update this to say it's possible to add all tracks from a playlist to your queue on Desktop. To do so, just head to your playlist > select all tracks using 'Ctrl/Cmd + A' > right click and select 'Add to Queue'. 

 

There aren't currently plans to implement this on Mobile,  but if anything changes we'll update you here. 

 

 

 

CASE CLOSED:

8. Bring back Recently Played to Your Library

 

With the new update you can now find your Recently Played tunes section on the home screen. Additionally, it's also possible to sort your Albums, Artists and Playlist by Recently Added. To do so, pull down to reveal the search bar, click the 'filters' options and then select 'Recently Played'. You'll also spot some other filter options too, like 'Name' so you can sort your playlists alphabetically.

 

9. Bring Spotify's old UI back

10. Option to show Lyrics only

I would love for spotify to bring in a system that makes your playlists have subcatagories so that you could easily find the songs youre looking for. Would be lovely aswell to have lyrics in the app to the songs youre listening to. Lastly i'd like more custimizing, like colours or text.

Hi all,

Just a note. This is not the place to submit new ideas. If you do it here they will not be processed.

There is a special corner in the community for idea submissions.

Use this link to submit ideas:

"Case Closed: Bring Back Recently Played" - **bleep** you guys. The new UI is trash and the new Recently Played is only like 1/4th of the length of the old one, plus you have to scroll it horizontally. The home screen is a useless mess. I'm switching back to Tidal.

Hi there,

 

I don't know what is the reason behind this, but the UI is getting far worse than it was before. If I just want to cycle through my own curated playlists there is no easy access to do that at all.

 

Do you really expect me to click my own username and go to public playlists. That is unacceptable. Please mend this as soon as you can.

 

Thanks

Hi @yoad2k,

 

What do mean? Just go to library and then playlists. You can also swipe down, an additional menu will be shown to sort and filter.

 

Regards,

René
