[All Platforms] "Don't Like Button" should be added to all sections

Hello everyone,

 

I am not sure why it keeps changing between updates, although in the past Daily Mixes have the Like & Dislike button. But this time around it has been completely removed and is only available Under Your Weekly Discovery.

 

It would be nice if the "Don't Like Button" was added everywhere, from Weekly Discovery, Daily Mixes, even when searching specific songs, albums, genres etc. to better filter our music preferences.

Also I find on Android on the drop down menu the Don't like button rarely ever works and have to enter the app directly. Like always works perfectly fine.

 

I would appreciate it if this could be considered.

Thank you

Hey folks,


Thanks for coming to the Spotify Idea Exchange and voting to make this happen!


We're happy to announce that the Hide Songs feature is now available on both mobile and desktop devices for Premium users.

 

Simply press the song's 3 dot menu and select Hide song. This can be done in any playlist made by Spotify or someone else, as well as albums. And any hidden tracks will no longer play from there.

Hidden songs will also sync between devices - no matter what device you're playing on. Unhiding a track can only be done through the mobile and desktop app, however.

 

You can also find more details about the feature here.


Once again, thanks for helping us make Spotify better, by participating here on the Community.

 

Cheers!

I concur.  Why should we constantly have to be on the lookout for tunes and artists we despise when we’re paying for a premium service? My wife reports that the Pandora dislike button works like a charm.  And that’s why she won’t drop Pandora and get a Spotify family account.

Thanks for the feedback. I like your point about paying for premium.

1000 + likes and a steady stream of support as seen through the past comments...and the status is still: "New Idea".

At least reassure us that you are aware of the issue and are considering ways to address it.

Yes indeed, let's get past your "Algeritham" and do something already!!!!

Why has this not been sorted out yet Spotify?

It used to be a feature and has been removed without any explanation or reasoning (as per my research).

Not being able to dislike songs or artists and not have them appear in future Playlists ect is like travelling back in time to when we only had the Radio to listen to.

Yes you could pick your radio station or radio DJ but it was a given you still were forced to listen to a large amount of **bleep** you didn't like still.

This topic has been live for months and consistently commented and up voted yet still we do not have a disallow/dislike feature in Spotify.

Give us the choice back because frankly i am losing patience with having to constantly skip artists i do not like repeatedly.

Couldn't agree more.

I guess if we all went to another music provider they may consider it.

So let's all get together and leave Spotify.

Any ideas ??

The premium interface does not have the new features (cleaner home section of the app, and on the playlist screen there is like, hide and more options buttons next to each track displayed) included in the free subscription, which makes the free subscription seem better than premium. Please fix this by adding it to premium so users can enjoy it to the max

As a current subscriber to spotify premium w/Hulu, it would be an ideal option to upgrade to family premium plan and still maintain access to Hulu. This of course being available only to current premium w/ Hulu accounts.

Can you please vote for my idea
