Hey everyone,

Thank you for sharing your valuable feedback here on the forum. Rest assured it hasn't gone unnoticed.

We believe that time spent on Spotify should be meaningful, personalized, and fulfilling. For this reason, we're excited to share that we're giving users the ability to better tailor their time spent on the platform, either by choosing to maintain the audio-first experience or to layer a richer, video-enhanced one. This article goes more in-depth on the topic, I'd recommend checking it out.

⚠️ Note: the feature is still in the process of rolling out gradually, so if you don't see it on your end just yet, rest assured it's coming your way soon. In the meantime, make sure you're keeping the app updated so you don't miss a thing.

Thanks again for helping us make Spotify better. The Community is always here if there's anything you need assistance with.

Why have you done this? No one asked for this. I just want to switch to audio mode and now I can't, it's actually comically bad. FFS stop messing up your app at the detriment of your users. NO ONE WANTS THIS
