August 2017 Ideas Review

Every month the Community Team reviews our Ideas Board and present the ones we’ve updated in the past 31 days.

We're here to take a look at the ideas we updated for you all in August. Curious what we implemented last year? Well check out our Yearly Ideas Review: 2016 here. 

IMPLEMENTED:

1. Spotify XBOX One App

In August we implemented the Community's #2 request: XBOX One support. Spotify is now available on Xbox One in 34 markets* around the world. The new integration means that millions of Xbox One gamers can now choose the perfect music from Spotify to provide a fresh soundtrack for every gaming session.

2. Student Discount in Sweden

3. Podcasts & Videos on Desktop

4. Prevent duplicates in Discover Weekly

5. All Offline Tracks in Main Menu

6. Fullscreen Artwork

7. Desktop Full screen playback info and visuals

GOOD IDEA:

8. [Android] Rearrange tracks inside a playlist

9. Make adverts relevant to what I'm listening to

10. Multi-Account Setting: Quickly Switch User Accounts

 

 

 

 

NOT RIGHT NOW:

11. [Sony] Add Last.fm support to PS3/PS4 App

12. [Playlists] Scroll automatically to current Track Position

13. More Notifications

14. Shuffle by Album

15. Soundcloud Integration

16. AM/FM Radio streaming

CASE CLOSED

 

17. Equalizer for the Desktop Version

18. Ability to see which of my playlists a song is in

19. Redesign the Android app to fit the Material Design Guidelines

20. Implement Touch Preview On Android

21. Less space between lines

I have many many playlists with many tracks in each one. Often I can't remember which playlist I put a song in.  I would like to be able to search for songs across all my playlists.

Does anyone know how to do this?

I would really like a way to disable the Genius lyric facts but KEEP THE ACTUAL LYRICS. If I'm learning the lyrics to a rap song you don't see more than half the lyrics. Same goes for any music genre really.

It would be fun to be able to "rename" songs within My Music or a playlist, with the new title denoted in some way (different color font maybe?). You could use it for organizing (rename a song in a wedding playlist to "Processional" or "Recessional") or just for fun (rename "24K Magic" to "TURNUP IN THE DORM").

Note: this would not change the actual name of the song file-wise; there would be some way to show the actual name, like if you right-click on it or something.

Hopefully this idea is simple enough to actually implement. I really like the folders feature but I find myself with many different playlists and it becomes a lot to navigate through. What I'm suggesting is a way to create a custom filter within a playlist: to either play certain songs you've selected or omit certain songs you've selected.

Thanks a lot for sharing this status, this a great way to include the users into the development process. It is your right and duty to take decisions what to do and what not. If you would share your reasoning for a NO decision, those who liked it could even be more understanding.
