The swipe to queue and add track to library gestures are no longer working on any Artist's "Popular" songs. The gestures still work in other locations such as when viewing albums, playlists, or searched songs.   This feature is important to me because when a song comes on from an artist I haven't listened to and like, I visit artists pages and queue up their Popular songs to see if I like some of their other releases. This allows me to easily and quickly save the songs and artist if I like them or pass them up and continue with my playlist/radio if I do not. The ease of access is especially important while I'm working, exercising, or driving.   I'm guessing the loss of functionality has to do with the recent UI change to Artist's pages (Pictures are now a cover picture behind their artists names and follow button look and position change). ...

Hi Spotify,   Please eliminate the ads with car horns/honking in them. Or at least edit the clip to remove those sounds. It is a safety issue affecting the mental health and well-being of listeners (from previous posts, it is startling and fear-inducing for both pedestrians and drivers listening to Spotify).   Apparently this problem has been around since 2015.  I heard the ad today, on the app,  1/2/19. When I did a quick search of the word “honking” in the community boards, one update said this issue was addressed in 2017 (https://community.spotify.com/t5/Implemented-Ideas/All-Platforms-Other-Do-not-make-ads-with-car-horns-in-them/idi-p/1217695)   Please look into this ad again since it is still playing and there are still posts from 2018 about it. Thanks for reading, and I hope this gets resolved soon. ... View more

The Spotify community is not used nearly as much as it should be, considering how many millions of listeners use the service. You say you need numbers to implement new features, but you don't have immediate access to any community forum in the app, like Steam does for instance. You should also make an easier polling option, that enables users to for example see polls suggesting ideas or similar on the side of the page and vote, instead of having to sift through hundreds of posts to find what they're looking for, and also having the option to click on a community tab when using spotify, or even having a polling tab in the app. The voting system you have now isn't any good, and the community grows stagnant, because whenever someone posts similar posts  instead of taking into account how many times the same post has been posted, you just redirect to old suggestions that you never did anything with. It's not relevant to link to a discussion posted in 2012 just because it's the same topic, because the post is too old.  ... View more

Great to have Spotify back on Roku.  The app needs a screensaver mode in order to avoid burn in on some TV's, and also to make things more interesting.  Anything moving would be fine, but album art and liner notes would be prefered.  Pandora scrolls the album art, so I know this idea is doable. ...

Spotify! Others have said it and it's an awesome idea and marketing oppertunity for you. At my NYE party, people were frustrated with the experience adding songs to queue or play next. Those people, who dont have Spotify, won't become users any time soon. Create a Touch Tunes type of experience in a party mode and people will want that experience for their own parties. ...

Hello! I've been taking a look to the new Samsung Music app, that now supports Spotify. And my question is about how they play together. Will the actual Samsung Music app play music from the Spotify database, or will it just take you to the Spotify actual app? I'm wondering because I have been using the Samsung Music since four years now, so it's not easy to me to move on ... View more

Everyone who uses an iPad (Especially an iPad pro) understands just how powerful a device it is. It can do way more than iOS lets it, sadly. Multitasking is a core feature and vital to making more use of the device. I am ALWAYS multitasking. Some say this is what holds them off of switching back from Apple Music!    I have a custom iPad mount in my vehicle and very frequently will load up Waze and split view either Podcasts/Youtube/Apple Music alongside it. Sure, Waze has Spotify control integration, but it really sucks. You always have to re-sync it and force quit if it fails. Not reliable.   MusicMatchX for example, a beautiful app that was removed from Spotify and setup as it's own platform. Sure would be nice to pull up both Spotify and MusicMatch again.  ... View more

Other media player apps such as Kodi / XBMC / Musicbee / VLC can perform a Stereo Upmix which is an idea feature if you're playing through a receiver via HDMI.  Spotify does take advantage of hardware acceleration, so DTS/Dolby or even just mechanically upmixing should be possible.   Please implement a stereo upmix to 5.1 / 7.1 surround within the app (i.e., all channels stereo). ...

I currently can't access podcasts from android auto. Considering you now have podcasts exclusive to Spotify, such as Crimetown I have looked at using spotify for my main podcast service. However until I can use it in my car (the place I mainly listen to podcasts) I won't be doing this. I can't even find them using the voice service.    Please can you put them on the main menu with the rest of my stuff, I don't understand why they're hidden? ... View more

This is driving me crazy, and there are a few similar threads out there, but Spotify and Google need to figure out a solution to this ASAP.    My wife and I have a Spotify family plan - each with our own accounts. We also use a range of google home products and google assistant, each with our own username linked to our own individual Spotify family plan account.    You’d think we could each listen to music on different google home speakers, just as we can on different mobile devices or computers. But no, no matter which users makes a request to a google home mini, it links to my username.   As a result, if I’m playing music on a google home device in one room, and my wife wants to listen to music on a different google home device in another room, the latest user to request a song will cut off the other - “because the account is being used elsewhere.” But it isn’t. We have two separate accounts under one family plan.    Similarly if my wife starts Spotify through a google home device, and I leave the house and want to listen to music in the car on my mobile device, it steals her broadcast - so she cannot listen any longer inside or I cannot listen in the car. Again, this makes no sense. We have two separate Spotify accounts (under a shared family plan) and two separate google home user accounts. Both are linked to each other.    There should be no digital rights violation here, as we use this Spotify functionality all the time with our mobile phones or computers. What gives Spotify and Google? Please fix this ASAP!!! ... View more

I've really enjoyed listening to podcasts. I am new to the scene, have enjoyed trying to catch up on my favorites (SYSK, Stuff You Missed in History Class, etc.).    However, aside from queueing up specific episodes there's no way to listen to podcasts in the order from oldest to newest (bottom to top). I'd like to see Spotify default to play in this order for podcasts to allow for a more streamless listening experience for avid podcast listeners.    The implementation of this change would look like choosing the first episode or that episode the user missed. The order would proceed up the list of episodes until the listener is caught up on their favorite podcast.    Hope this detail helps! I'd be curious to see what others think! ... View more

Spotify used to have thumbs up and thumbs down buttons.  I really liked that Spotify offered that great feature which, I believe, worked.  Those buttons never worked on Pandora so I left Pandora for Spotify.   Since then, Spotify got rid of the thumbs down button and replaced it with (what looked like) a "do not enter" button that, when I hit it, it stopped playing the song and moved onto the next song.  I used it just two days ago. Now the "do not enter" button is gone.  Why?  (And the songs that were playing when I hit the "do not enter" button are back on the Play Queue...like bad seafood.)   I mostly use the Radio function to listen to songs.   Why must I listen to songs I don't want to ever hear or from artists (the term is used loosely) from whom I don't want to ever hear?   What is the point of me paying for music that depresses or upsets me? ...

The problem with submitting new ideas is that it’s too hard to get other people to vote for them because they have to be worded perfectly for someone to stumble on it. You should be able to share your new idea (such as this one) the same as you can share music—with your Facebook friends, Spotify followers, people in your contacts list, etc. Otherwise great ideas are just sitting, waiting to be shut down because no one knows it’s there.    *You can currently share via email, but you have to manually type each address...but I can’t even remember my own mom's email address. ...

I just made the "brave journey" to Tidal in protest of Spotify's arrogant business desicions. The reasons are so easily fixable it just makes me sad. Lately, Spotify  has really shown that Spotify Community just is a place where frustrated customers can let steam out, but why even bother when posts with 7000+ votes does not even get considered?   The reasons why I left (which are so easily preventable): 1. No Apple TV-app https://community.spotify.com/t5/Live-Ideas/Partnerships-Apple-TV-Support/idi-p/3629 Issue posted 2012 – 7400 votes. Before you say this is Apple's fault, may I remind you Tidal has an app?   2. No Hi-Fi option https://community.spotify.com/t5/Live-Ideas/Music-HiFi-Quality-Lossless-Streaming-16bit-44-1khz/idi-p/700006 Issue posted 2014 – 10 500 upvotes Tidal would literally go bankrupt if Spotify gave us this feature.   My frustration with Spotify is summed up beautifully in this forum: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Other-Apple-TV-App-update/idi-p/4263922 " 1) Are you creating an app for Apple TV?

I submmitted an idea Here which was marked as "DUPLICATE" and I was asked to visit the duplicate idea that was submitted by someone else. I think that if my idea got 10 votes those votes should be migrated to the similar/duplicate idea. One, It doesn't make sense that my idea had more votes and gets canceled for the similar idea that has less votes. Two, If they are the same idea then the votes should be migrated regarless of who has more or less.  ... View more
