I think it would be a good idea to have an option in the settings where you can ""minimize"" the window and keep only a bar, that stays on top of the other windows and only has the music bar and the buttons to change music and the volume:     Basically, this bar would have everything that the Spotify window has on the bottom.   What do you think ? ...

Hello there!   I understand that Spotify might not want every user to be able to put clickable links into their playlist descriptions since that'd open all doors for people linking to scam and shady websites. But how about allowing everyone to put clickable links into their descriptions that can only link to artists, playlists or users on Spotify? I think that'd be much safer. It'd be very cool to directly link to an artist that's featured on the cover of a playlist since nowadays almost nobody wants to type an artist's name in the search bar anymore, lol.   Would be much appreciated if you vote for this idea, in case you think it deserves to be seen by more people and maybe even get implemented some day! :)   Thanks y'all! ...

When creating a new playlist there should be an option to add it under a playlist folder. Currently you can only create a new playlist, then you have to drag to appropriate folder. It would be easier to organize and manage your music library if you could nest under folders/add labels to playlists like you can with gmail.   This has been requested a couple times but re-posting to get more kudos. Its been requested enough times that its obviously desired but just hasn't been promoting within the community. Lets make it happen! Previous posts below:   [Playlists] Create a Playlist directly inside a Folder Submitted by  Percy7490  on ‎2017-12-02 12:32 PM I like organizing my songs in different playlists and I like organizing my playlists in different folders but it is really annoying that when I wanna add a new playlist I have found through the search that I have first to create this new playlist in the "main category/hierarchy" through the "Add to playlist" button and then drag it into the folder. It would be better if there were under every folder also the button "Create new playlist" so that this new playlist is directly saved in the chosen folder.   [Your Music] Folder Organization  Submitted by  seelsonwheels  on ‎2016-07-10 08:22 PM Currently, folder creation is limited to playlists. This makes the "Save to Your Music" functionality within Spotify unusable -- a major drag when the only alternative is to save albums as playlists, creating album v. playlist ambiguity within the navbar (see attached image.)   Proposed solution -- as a Spotify user, I should be able to: create folders within the “Albums” tab of "Your Music." nest "Albums" folders within one another.  drag-and-drop "Saved" album objects into the folders within "Albums" section of "Your Music." I wrote about this scope in more detail here.   cc: @Percy7490  @seelsonwheels        ... View more

As Premium users we should have the possibility of changing/customizing the Home screen in the desktop app (Win10). It makes no sense to show the Home screen at startup with artists, playlists and music styles totally unrelated to the user.   My sugestion would be to disable this nonsense home screen. Instead the user would be presented with the last artist, song or playlist he was listening to. I bet this would make the app faster at start up as well.   Thank you. ... View more

In 2012, the awesome idea was suggested to Spotify to make a fullscreen mode on for the desktop version. And we were heard, we got a nice full screen version that displayed the album cover, the song name and the artist. On a big bland ugly gray to black gradient. Please Spotify. There have been several requests about this topic, some asking for the background to be the dominant color of the album art, others asking for the background to be a blurry enlarged version of the album art, again others thing that a audio visualizer may look cool. Anything else but this gradient. When there's a party, I like to have music on, of course. The fullscreen mode hides my playlist nicely, but the gray gradient just ruins the whole look of the room. So, hopefully the final post about this, Spotify, Please give us an option to change the background of the fullscreen mode. We beg you.       Now here's some ideas I personally had.   1) Make the fullscreen mode personalizable. By this I mean, make an option in the settings in which you can move around and resize the album art and text. You can also choose what you would like as a background, for example choosing between showing the most dominant color of the album art, showing an enlarged picture, an audio visualizer, **bleep** maybe even an option to play the youtube videoclip in the background. 2) Widgets you can place in the fullscreen mode. This is a small continuation of point 1). If you do get to personalize the fullscreen mode, being able to add widgets to it would be even cooler. Like adding a digital clock, a date, an "up next" widget, there's alot of cool ways you could go with this.   Now let's hope we get noticed boys. ... View more

In previous versions the search text box was visible in any section. Now you have to go to the search section, so you don't see, i.e., your current list. Having the search text box always available was very useful. Now it's a pain any time you want to search, for example if you are at the bottom of the list of playlists. Please, do not remove the good features just "to change something" Thanks ... View more

I am evaluating Spotify Premium and was pretty happy until my radio stations disappeared, and all I can find are playlists. I actually watched as the Queue ran out of songs. After 3 hours of texting support, I was told to come here and suggest a change. Are you kidding me?????There are free alternatives that have radio stations. Please fix this soon, or myself and many like me, will soon be with the competition.  ... View more

I use Stitcher for my podcasts but would love to switch over to use Spotify exclusively, but there are a couple things standing in my way.   1. PLAYLISTS THAT AUTOMATICALLY UPDATE One of the important things my podcast app does is allows me to build playlists that I have set to automatically download when a new one is available. After I've listened to it I immediately delete the download. This way I have a varied assortment of playlists in my genre that I can seamlessly and effortlessly stay current with by simply listening to my downloads in chronological order.    2. MARK MULTIPLE AS PLAYED  Also, there has to be a way to mark multiple episodes as heard. This is a wall. I've listened to hundreds of episodes of many podcasts and to go through and mark all of them as played via mobile will take forever. I should be able to select many in the desktop app and mark as played. Otherwise, I won't use this app at all for podcasting.    Right now, Spotify has all the podcasts I want to listen to, but these two features make this an absolute no-go. I'm excited to see the improvements so far and really hope these get implemented.  THANKS!   ... View more

Ok, the filter option is terrible.   First, if you arent at the top of the playlist, you need to scroll all the way up to see the filter results. seriously its common sense. The filter should automatically bring you to the top... of course.   Also, the filter option should work that way : you search for a song, click on it to play it, filter cancels, and when song is over the other songs in the playlist play normaly. filter should not stay on and you should not have to click the X to cancel the filter. Or just add a pop up window to search for a song in playlist. like jump to file on winamp. ... View more

With a group of friends we are making a playlist (public). There is this user, outside of the friend group, that keeps deleting the list to then add all songs ever made by the band "Death". We can't find a way to report the user because he is not posting offensive descriptive texts or anything of the sort. Why is there not yet a "report user" for an "other reason" than the ones now in the menu? We have no clue where to go now! ... View more

Dear Spotify,   Please could you release the full genre list (1000+) that you use to categorise music? I've spent a while down the rabbit hole trying to find it online (including previous posts on here that were "resolved"), but couldn't. It seems to me that it should be available for users—particularly paying ones.    If it is freely available, could you point me in the right direction?   Many thanks ... View more

I now follow 800+ artists, all of which renders browsing the 'Artists' page useless. Please include some sorting or filtering which allows you to narrow down the list! Ideally, you could group artists into folders such as '90s' or 'Easy listening' or 'HipHop' etc. but in the short term I would settle for more 'sort by' options so that you can find artists easier by pre-made filters. (See pic)   More options for sort ... View more
