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

Since this awful UI update was implemented, I have lost the ability to sort my playlist songs by most recently added on the PC version. Sorting by "date added" only goes earliest to latest with no option to do the reverse.

I almost exclusively listen to the newest songs in my playlist first, so now being able to do that is really annoying. I made a forum account here for the sole purpose of finding a solution for this awful update.

While there are other egregious things about the new UI, such as mixing playlists, artists, and albums in the "Your Library" tab, the worst one is definitely my previous complaint. Please bring back Ascending Order. I am seriously considering canceling my premium.

Knowing Spotify doesn't listen to its subscribers, I see little reason to continue with the service. I have Amazon Music Unlimited as my secondary source, but now I need to replace my primary streamer. As much as I've tried to avoid the Apple ecosystem, the Apple Music iOS is looking like a very viable alternative to your newly  christened UI shipwreck. Talk about alienating even your staunchest customers.

Is anyone else bugged by how the update shows the profiles of your followers and annoyed by how you cant pick them?? Whenever I open my profile I see the profile of my ex-boyfriend along with other people I don't really want to be shown and I can't remove them because Spotify doesn't allow you to either block or remove followers. Please fix this.

The new update sucks.
