I love some of the playlists that are on spotify. A good example of one I'd like to listen to is "Totally Stress Free". I was all for it until John Mayer started playing. I have never "noped" out of somewhere so fast. I can't stand John Mayer and would rather stick my head in a jet engine.   Is there a way we could create like a preference list of musicians we do not like so Spotify could filter those out? Not take them out of the playlists, but maybe make them one of the ones that just don't play? ... View more

Stop closing these bug reports!   Bug reproduction steps: Right-click a song, "Add to playlist", start typing the name of a playlist   Expected behaviour: The list of playlists should narrow down to those that contain the typed characters. This stopped working with the latest major update.   This isn't a feature request. It's a bug report. This feature stopped working with the latest major update.

You used to be able to drag a song to reorder it in a playlist or your queue and the screen would scroll along. Especially now that our screens are covered by album covers and thus less songs it would be great if this could be fixed. Please fix this!  ... View more

A recent update to the way our songs are displayed in our playlists introduces an extra and unnecessary step when searching for songs we want to find and play. The Old interface showed the song title in the left column, then the artist, album, date added, and length. This way made sense as we could sort the song title by clicking at the top to any column to alphabetize or sort. For example, if we can't remember the song name but know the artist, we could click the top of the artist column to sort the artists. The update has consolidated the far-left column to include the song title and artist together, and if we want to sort by one or the other, we have to click the new drop down box at the right side of the playlist. The "Album" column is a permanent column now and its easily the least meaningful one for me to see and use. Please at least allow us the option to customize which columns we want to display or switch it back to the way it used to display the songs as there was no flaw prior to this update. Thank you for considering this idea! ... View more

Hi everyone!   I used to rely heavily on the desktop app remembering where you left a certain playlist.   eg.: I'm at the bottom of Playlist A, I quickly go to Playlist B, then I click on Playlist A again and it opens at the bottom, where I last was positioned in this playlist.   With the new UI, every time you enter a playlist it puts you at the top. This is a major inconvenience for me, for sorting and playlist-making reasons.   EDIT: This seems to be the case in playlists, on artist pages and generally the whole app. A related problem is also that when you search a song, click it and then clear the filter, you jump back to the top instead of seeing the song you highlighted (thanks to @brian for pointing tis out.   This could be just a little hick-up since the UI changed, but I hope this is resolved soon!   Thanks! ...

My idea is for Spotify to adds Infos about albums something like editors' notes from apple music so we can read about the songs or the singer and writing backstories while we listen to them. ... View more

The new desktop experience should behave how the queue previously worked. When you manually add tracks, they should not disappear once the queue length reaches 50. All manually added tracks should display. My use case is: In the morning, I queue up a bunch of albums for the entire day so I can concentrate on work and not have to bother choosing tracks throughout the day. With a visible limit of 50 this becomes very difficult and frustrating. The limit is arbitrary as playlists can still display the full number of tracks. I don't want to have to create a playlist for this as I have still have a playlist running in case the queue runs out. I can't help feeling this is an oversight and it shouldn't be hard to resolve. ... View more

I suspect this was an oversight in the latest update, but the album cover is now tiny in full-screen mode, making room for the background on the artist's profile instead. There seems to be no way to maximize the album cover, which I'd rather be looking at. I'd like that option back! ... View more

Loving the new UI so far but It's slightly annoying that navigating back and forth through the desktop app no longer returns you to the point on the page you were on previously, i.e. If I'm halfway down a page then navigate forward a page, returning to the previous page will put you to the top of the page rather than the point you were at. Makes navigating the app a bit slower & less fluid. ... View more

There have been a convenient setting in the previous version of the desktop app which allowed to hide overlay while using media keys. But, for some reason, it was removed in the latest version of the app (using 1.1.55.498.gf9a83c60-a currently). I sincerely cannot understand the reason of removing this option, so I suggest returning it to the latest desktop app.   ... View more

The new desktop version only allows the user to see the spotify-playlists and / or artist radio. That means that you can't discover other users playlists that features the artist, which is a great way of discovering new music. This is very important, especially for small artists, leftfield-listeners and music curators.  It's okay that Spotify wants to highlight it's own playlists (which it is already doing), but this is overshadowing the user community and it makes for a less dynamic and fun streaming service.  Martin ...

Earlier today, I sent a suggestion (via twitter) that podcasts should remember the filters all the filters, like sort oldest to newest etc. Mostly, I wasn't to be able to hide the ones Ive played already and have it be remembered, as the desktop version does, instead of having to sort that for each podcast every time.     Then I opened the desktop version this evening, and see they changed the layout (which I don't like but whatever) but they removed the "only show unplayed" episodes button altogether and I hate that.    Please bring it back and let the phone version remember that as a filter.   thnx ...

My laptop app just updated and I can no longer see the date a song was added to my playlist. You can still sort the songs in a list by date added, but the date is not visible and I don't see it as a tab or column you can add in the view. Is there a way to add this feature back manually? Is anyone else not happy with this update?  ... View more

With the new update, we lost the ability to paste multiple songs into a playlist with one paste. This is very bothersome for transferring playlists or in my case manually shuffling my playlist. Since I did not know this would happen I now no longer have my playlist because I cut and paste the songs into a text file to randomize the order. When I went to paste them back in it only pasted one song in. ... View more

When you view an album in the mobile app, you see the release date at the bottom. Not just the year, but the month and day as well.   In the desktop app, even after the March 2021 update, you can only see the year.   For parity between the two apps, the desktop app should show the full date including month and day. Since desktop and web now use pretty much the same layout, this could be implemented for web as well.   The full date is very useful information to me and currently I have to check my phone or use the API to get it.   My main use case is making monthly playlists of new releases, but this is valuable for historical things as well -- a lot can change in a year.   It's not important to me how the date is displayed, just that I can see it somewhere on all platforms. ...

Since the new update for the windows client the playlist items are larger than before. Its quite annoying for me, since it can now only fit ~15-20 Songs on a standard 1080p monitor. A preferred the more compact view of the previous client. Could you add a toggle in the settings to toggle between the now normal mode and a more compact mode? ... View more

The new desktop UI forces the user to see total play counts on every song. It is now impossible to formulate your own opinion on new music without a bias. We should at least have the option to turn the "total plays" column off.   This is not a minor tweak, it drastically affects how you experience music. ... View more

Before the update to Spotify's recent mobile and desktop layouts, there had been a feature on artist pages, which included popular playlists that they were featured/listed on. This feature still exists, however, the issue has become that only playlists curated by Spotify are now featured. I personally find it unfortunate because it is often more fun to see what kind of playlists that other users list certain artists on. This had also been a great tool for further music discovery. Spotify often makes playlists riddled with popular music, or neglect to feature smaller artists; and, sometimes I want to look for a playlist that features a specific artist (and some are so small that Spotify just hasn't curated a playlist for them) and so, it used to be very simple to just go to the artist's 'featured playlist' section and find something made by a regular user. Often, these playlists would include other music of similar style that I enjoyed, and had also never heard of. I find that since the removal of this aspect, it's become less exciting and enjoyable to search for new music on Spotify. Please bring back the featuring of other users' playlists on the artists page (not just the stuff curated by Spotify). ... View more

On desktop and web player versions of Spotify, ever since the new update (April 2020) it's been so much harder to view words, in general. Mainly the problem is the sidebar (left). Making the words more dim/lighter colour font is terrible for view-abilities. Can they just change back to the old layout??!! It was fine the way they did things but after the update it almost impossible to see words (even as a person with glasses I have to strain to see it!!! )!! Especially as an accessibility issue, people with bad eyesight or low view or simply with the different screen settings across people devices, can't see the playlists they have saved (not the ones the user themselves have created)  via the side bar nor the "home"/"search"/"your library" icon button unless it's highlighted. My friend with low vision and is legally blind says she has been needing to turn up the screen's brightness in order to see and use Spotify more clearly. And we don't wanna blind ourselves with the brightness just to be able to use Spotify every time, right?!   The simple solution should be: Spotify either needs to have brighter font or completely change the background of the black/dark grey to something different that's not dark. Not that I ever liked the dark background colour in the first place....  On other platforms this is not ever an issue. Take iTunes for example, in general the background is whiteish and fonts are black coloured. So easy to see everything.  But nope, not in Spotify...   GO BACK TO THE OLD THING OR FIX THIS SO SPOTIFY CAN BE MORE ASSESSABLE AND HAVE BETTER VIEWABILITY FOR ALL USERS! ... View more
