Ideas Review

May 2020 Ideas Review

Katerina

Every month the Community Team reviews our Ideas Board and highlights the statuses we’ve updated recently.

 

Below you can find the statuses changed last month. For more information read: Idea Exchange: How does my feedback reach Spotify?

 

 

IMPLEMENTED:

1. [All Platforms][Playlists] Skipping songs in a playlist that you are not the creator of

It's now possible to hide tracks within any playlist on mobile.


Just head to the context menu (three dots), and tap "Hide song". The song will be marked as "Hidden", meaning it'll no longer play in that playlist. This can be undone at any time too.

 

2. [Music] Block / Hide / Blacklist Tracks or Artists

The option 'Don't play this artist' is now available on iOS and Android.


If we have any information about this on other platforms in the future, we'll report back!

 

3. [Browse] Hide song in Premium

We're marking this as implemented, as this feature is now available on mobile.


If we have any info regarding this on desktop in the future, we'll head back here with an update.

 

4. [All Platforms] Sleep Timer

We can confirm this is available on both iOS & Android!


You can check out this idea, if you'd like to vote for a sleep timer on desktop too.

 

5. Increase maximum Songs allowed in Your Music

We're excited to be marking this idea as implemented!


We've now removed the limit on saved items in Your Library, making it possible to save songs, and albums on Spotify to your heart's content.


As the app has changed quite a bit since this idea was submitted, please be aware that some functionality is now different. This change does not impact the limit on the number of songs in a playlist other than your Liked Songs.


For more info, check out this blog post.

 

 

GOOD IDEA:

6. [All Platforms][Your Library] Delete Songs from Account History

7. [All Platforms] "Don't Like Button" should be added to all sections

8. [Podcasts] Push Notification for new Episodes

9. [Social] Real Time "Listen with Friend(s)"

 

CASE CLOSED:

10[Running] Bring back Running

 

UNDER CONSIDERATION

11. [Mobile] Listening History On Mobile

 

 

NOT RIGHT
NOW:

12. [iOS][Other] Spotify Alarm on iOS

This might be a bad suggestion, but I would really appreciate it! I was thinking maybe to have an update where we can change our playlists pictures mobile. Cause currently we can only do that on some computers and I am unable to do that cause my computer does not allow that so it would be great if I could change the playlist picture on my phone! Thank you!

I have an excellent idea

By making a collaborative playlist, anyone can both include and delete songs.

My idea is to select the people that I want to include music in my playlist, but without removing the quality that the playlist is collaborative and public.

How come the Top Ideas advertised on the front page are not the same as when you pick Top Ideas in the full list?

 

And how are you prioritising what to implement? Spotify on Apple Watch is the 7th most wanted feature, but not even an update from your end since September 2019.

I just got the app and I'm paying for premium, I'm shocked there isn't a "Shuffle All" for your downloaded songs. I've had amazon music, and apple music and figured that a feature as simple as playing all my songs was something basic. For all the bells and whistles Spotify has, I thought they would at least have such a simple feature. Literally all the other music streaming services I've used have that. 

 

Also, there should be a dislike button. There are bands I just can't listen too because they're so bad, but I keep getting them suggested on my playlists. 

 

Again, please please please, have a shuffle all options. I think it's redundant to have to like all your songs in order for you to shuffle them. From my understanding, that used to be an option, why would you take that away? It makes no sense to me and it's one of those things that just seems like such a obvious thing to have. Who dropped the ball on that one?

I’m quite sure there used to be a dislike button...
