Whatever Customer Relations worker happens to see this, yes, I know:    https://community.spotify.com/t5/Live-Ideas/Android-Swipe-to-Queue-a-Track/idi-p/1189608   100 Million+ Play Store downloads.   4 years of waiting.   An elementary feature native to the iOS experience since launch.   This question gets asked all the time. And everytime it is redirected to the original post, marked "Not Right Now".   I doubt this is an app-breaking feature. It is a QoL improvement that makes the app consistent across platforms. Does Spotify have some secret deal with Apple to give other OS users an inferior UX? I doubt that as well. I imagine more "pressing" features are being requested (like Behind the Lyrics, because that's very important) and this one has been tabled indefinitely because Spoitfy doesn't believe there is enough demand.   I will keep making these posts until whatever developers in this company finally believe there is.     ...

Spotify built in is a great feature but lacks precision to get volume level just right.  The slider used in the browser and desktop apps should have access to a human control with better precision.  Suggestions would be to enable keyboard small step controls when the mouse is hovered on the control or a pop out control that is much larger.  The phone app should also have improved precision (smaller steps). An overall suggetion would be to enable a universal setting that controls the step size of the volume combined with a keyboard options or phone volume control.  This feature should not wait for the ability to play in multiple locations at one time but will be an absolute requirement when we can play several speakers or devices at one time.       ...

I would like spotify to recognize my tastes depending on whether I change the song quickly or not. I mean, if I am in a public playlist (i.e: today top hits), and I pass a song in a very short time, that means that I do not feel like it or I do not like to listen to it that kind of songs. Therefore, when Spotify do the daily recommendations, they will adjust to my musical tastes. ... View more

iOS supports downloads when an app is suspended, closed, out of focus, and in any other inactive state. Spotify should use the information available at https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/url_loading_system/downloading_files_in_the_background (SWIFT) and https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/url_loading_system/downloading_files_in_the_background?language=objc (OBJECTIVE C) to implement the necessary APIs to enable background downloads for saving music for offline playback. This is a huge advantage that Apple Music has over Spotify, and it is an outright lie to claim that iOS does not permit third party apps to run download tasks in the background. ... View more

I would love them to add the option to select the quality of a song, album. Instead of as a whole as space wise I tried around 1000 high quality songs out of 2500 in total and it took up 13gb of space on my 32gb device so no chance of doing the full 2500 with system files ect. Think it would be better to select the songs you want in the higher quality as it would be nicer on space and over all listening experience.  ... View more

I have a large number of playlists in my account, and when I view my set of playlists on the web, in this case through the Chrome browser, it's very difficult to search for a particular list because they each have giant images. The only way I have been able to do so thus far is Crl+F and seach by name. It would very helpful to give the user the option to just see all the playlists as a list like we see in the mobile app and the desktop app.  HR example: https://i.imgur.com/2Lkf2JE.png ...

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 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). ...

All Spotify employees and executives should be forced to listen to all of their podcasts on Spotify, so maybe it would at least get caught up to the worst podcast players out there - which are still better than Spotify.   More than 18 months ago, I heard the Spotify advertisment on my favorite podcast. To support the pod, I tried switching over to Spotify. Almost immediately glaring deficiencies became apparent, among them:   * HIGHLY REQUESTED FEATURE: No way to mark a selected cast as "Played." Maybe I don't want to hear this one again. There are several posts on this. * HIGHLY REQUESTED FEATURE!  No way to Mark ALL as "Played. I just switched over from another player, now Spotify wants to put literally HUNDREDS of casts on my lists. I want to Mark them ALL as Played - except for the recent ones I have yet to listen to. Again, there are several posts on this. * Add a Podcast to a playlist. Maybe I've created a playlist of an artist and want to add a cast about that artist. * Create playlists of podcasts that I want to listen to again. Maybe I really like someting, and want to add it to a list of my Favorites. * Pause the cast and go back to listening to music. Maybe it's a long one, and I want a break. * HIGHLY REQUESTED FEATURE:  Push notifications so I know when something I've subscribed to has been updates. Many posts about this. * Filter my podcasts by some criteria I choose (music, genre, source, etc.) * Spotify's Podcast search feature is terrible! Seriously, it almost never finds what you're looking for.  You almost never know the exact name, sometimes you just know who it is, or what it's about. Try Podcast Addict, Pocket Cast or one of the other big apps - you get one single word right and they seem to find it! * Podcast function is too hard to find in Android. *  HIGHLY REQUESTED FEATURE:  Can't play Podcasts on my desktop computer, andy my usage should cross platforms. Again, there have been multiple posts about this over the past several years. *  Podcasts menu available in the library section of the phone app should be accessible also in Android auto. * HIGHLY REQUESTED FEATURE: Sort Podcasts (by date, name, genre, etc.) * Show the description of the podcast episode. All other players seem to do this.   These are just a few of the most basic needs of the avid Pod listener. Most of these have been requested multiple times in different ways, thus failing the whole Kudos system.    Having my podcasts and music in a single place would be TERRIFIC. Unfortunately, your podcast player as it stands borders on unuseable. Please get serious about this, and you'll have an unbeatable combo on your hands.   Thanks, Mick         ... View more

My suggestion comes after using Slacker Radio and now using Spotify. I have noticed some similarities and non similarities. One of them is being able to save your album, and artists and noticed that after saving an album in my album library that album was automatically saved in the artist tab too unlike Slacker Radio which would only save the album but not added to artist. Why does Spotify need to add the same album to the artist tab for if it was saved under the album folder in my library.     That makes it clustered.     I suggest you take the same idea as Slacker Radio which makes more sense and save an album under the album tab and not add it where it dont belong. It should be as followed   Albums with albums Artist with artists Songs with songs.   If you add an album in your library and it automatically adds it in the artist library that will only cluster your library. Why would you need that for? Not logical. If you add an album or song to your library, there’s no need to add it to another category automatically. Spotify does that automatically and it is useless and clustery.    Keep it clean and simple ... View more

I’ve recently found that the equalizer can really improve the quality of your music. If you listen to multiple genres at the same time though, you’ll constantly need to be changing the equalizer setting. There should be an option that automatically changes the equalizer’s preset based on the genre of the song that you’re currently listening to, even if it’s in a playlist with a variety of genres. ...

Under the View Menu, we should have an option for a Toolbar Mode that we can move to top, bottom or sides of the monitor, as well as a detachable Album Art Window that we can pin to top so it doesnt get burined behind other things on the desktop.   Or we should have a small floating player, similar to, say, literally every single media player ever made in the history of media players. We can drag it around, and keep it on top of other programs   I can't really wrap my head around why your media player is worse than every other player in existence, and yet its the only one people are actually paying for. Are you pulling a Bezos? Trying to be the richest person on earth while investing peanuts into your product and company?   Mobile should have little floating transparent controls as well   ...

Its absurdly ridiculous how difficult it is to remove a currenty playing song from the currently playing playlist.   How is the Play Queue COMPLETELY oblivious to the Playlist? Seriously, how is it comepletely separate with nothing to do with the current playlist. Its baffling how you have somehow managed to make a Queue that has absolutely nothing to do with the selected playlist.   Did you have one guy programming the Queue and another guy programming the Playlist, and then a third guy throw them together in your app? It makes no sense whatsoever.   BUT WAIT!! I can SAVE the currently playing song in my playlist (ready for it?) TO MY LIBRARY! boom, what a fantastic feature to have, almost like an easter egg, there just for giggles.   I can also GO TO SONG RADIO, and listen to a large number of songs I disdain, just in case that was what I wanted to do.   At least I can Remove it from the Queue, but it will still be in my playlist for next time I start the playlist, luckily, because I just wanted it removed from the play cyle once, then have it returned to play everytime after that, said no one, ever.   I understand you are having a difficult time figuring out which playlist to delete from because your queue can consist of multiple playlists, and the song may be in more than one playlist, and you seem to be stuck there, and just gave up, filing it under "things we will never be able to understand and other mysteries of the universe".   However, your "Add to Playlist" is a cascading menu, and you can make a "Remove from playlist" which cascades and lists the playlists it is located in, and a separator below the list, and "All" at the bottom.   Alternatively, when we click on the playlist view, the song that is currently playing should be displayed on top by the album title, with clickable options to remove it from the playlist, so we don't have to scroll slowly through hunderds of songs to find the little green one in order to delete it from the playlist and never listen to it again.   Or you can keep pretending that you're reinventing the wheel, and making the world's first media player, which we'd all believe, as your user experience feels like something pre-dating winamp           ...

Since the latest update, the + (at the lower left to add music) has changed into a sweet little heart. But if you grab your phone and  accidentally  touch this green heart by touching your screen, you'll remove your music in a blink of an eye.  I lost music because of this :-( Idea: Maybe a two-step delete option, so you get a pop-up "Are you sure you want to remove this song from your library?" and need to confirm you want to delete this music. ...

I've just experienced an annoying problem on my mobile app (iOS) as spotify only played the first 30 seconds of each song before switching to the next song. This was due to the fact that I was also logged in on some 'web player (chrome)' somewhere that I was not aware of. Logging out 'everywhere' solved the problem, but that is only an option when going to the spotify website. It's not available in the mobile app itself, where you can log out of that device and nowhere else.    I do consider myself moderately tech-savvy, and it took me nearly two hours looking for a solution, first in the app itself, then trying the general settings on my mobile, then searching the spotify community. That is ridiculously long and I'd be surprised if most users would be willing to spend so much time trying to resolve it.    Thus I would suggest the option to 'logout everywhere' also be available in the app itself, as people will naturally try to solve any issue on the device where the issue is. I cannot see why that is not yet the case, the app is probably no less safe than the website is, and each user can only use one device at a time, thus logging out everywhere should pose no problems on those other devices. That could solve most conflicts when some other device gives problems (of course being logged in to other devices should give no problems, but a bug can never be excluded I guess).     ... View more
