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

Only took four years plus to implement #5 ... well, I suppose "better late than never".

Please, implement a function where we can change backgrounds of our own profiles and playlists for the phone version.

Because right now my own profile has this orange background. I don't know where it comes from, it's ugly and it clashes with my profile picture (it's white, black and blue). Also my playlists don't have the same backgrounds. I have made a playlist with songs from 2020 and songs from 2021 of which the cover artworks are almost identical. But then my background is white in the 2020 playlist and red in the 2021 playlist which looks pretty ugly and clashes with my cover artworks.

Maybe you could do something with adding standard colours or a function so that we can upload our own backgrounds to fit our personal themes?

 

Also it could be nice to have titles and cover artworks on the left side of the screen (which we can personalize using different fonts and sizes). Now the texts are being wrapped when it's too long and sometimes it just doesn't look good.

Then, on the right side the creators with just a clickable profile picture to go to other profiles. And underneath this profile picture, the followers.

 

Also for extra information there's a maximun of words we can use and in the phone version, but we cannot put as many words as in the desktop version.

 

I hope you'll take these in consideration and that I'll see some of them in the new update! 🙂

 Can you fix how the credit card system works? I've tried multiple times to buy premium as of late and every time it ends up saying "error" but after contacting my bank and everything its just that Spotify System is messed up.

I would like to restart a playlist from the song I listened last.

 

Every time I play a playlist , if I want to play a single and come back to last playlist, the whole playlist will restart from the beginning. 

 

And this happens allllll the time......

I think the ability to change your username would be great, especially for those of us whose username randomly changed to random numbers and letters and aren't being given any kind of solution
