Hello, @jessieh9-us!

 

Thanks for contacting us. Could you send us which version of Spotify you're using and the model of your iPhone? I’ll make sure your comments end up with the folks responsible for the iPhone app!

 

Regards,

Hey @jessieh9-us

Apologies for the delay here. We decided to disable Touch Preview when Voice Over is enabled, however we're open to feedback regarding this.

How would you like Voice Over to work with the Touch Preview function should it be introduced in the future?

The way that I would do it, is when you double tap and hold it should just
start playing the song that is currently being highlighted, that is a pass
through gesture for voice over users again you double tap and hold, but it
doesn't even do it when you turn off voice over,
