My Question or Issue

 Is there a way to customize what is shown in start menu live tile? As a metalhead, all the pop/rap stuff that shows up is not only irrelevant, but annoying.

Hey @Pepetruen0

I do agree it would be great, but for now it's not possible, unfortunately. 

However there is a Live Idea which suggesting this, you can give your vote and comments in support there : )

But why is it 'not possible'? Everything is possible when it comes to programming. Of course it should be possible to mirror the current song on the tile. Many other apps show latest/current content - so why not the premier music streaming platform? 

Hey there @alexwent,

 

Thanks for sharing this here in the Community!

 

While the app's tiles in the Windows Start page are not customized or updated live yet, the best way to request that is by sharing this in our Idea Exchange. This way, other users can show their support and contribute to the discussion about seeing this feature in the Windows app.

 

Further, keep in mind that the idea shared above is more related to the Start page in the app itself rather than the Windows Start page. You can find more info on how to share your idea in this Spotify Answer.

 

As for how your feedback reaches Spotify and how ideas get implemented, we'd recommend taking a look here for more info.

 

Hope this info is helpful but don't hesitate to give us a shout if there's anything else!

 

Have a lovely day 🙂

Exactly. "for now it's not possible, unfortunately" is neither a solution nor an explanation.
