PLAYLIST PRIVACY CHANGE hindered on PC app

Solved!

PLAYLIST PRIVACY CHANGE hindered on PC app

ISSUE ON PC APP: I'm unsure if this is a privacy change being looked into, but playlists no longer hold the 'public playlist' or 'private playlist' title like they used to. while the feature still exists on mobile and can be edited there, if a playlist is 'removed from profile' and in the private state on PC, it cannot be changed from the application. The buttons 'make private/make public' have previously always been present alongside 'add/remove from profile'.

tldr PC private/public and add/remove to profile functions are not present despite working on mobile

Hey @joryclark,

 

Thanks for reaching out.

 

We've tested this on our end and the playlist privacy settings work as expected on desktop - the Make public/private buttons are present and Add to profile is there when the playlist is set to Public.

 

Can you please try clean reinstalling the as described here and let us know your OS version and Spotify version if you're still having issues?

 

Keep us posted.
