[Android] Rearrange Tracks inside a Playlist

On my iPod I can manually move my songs around that are in my playlist, but I can't do the same on my phone which is what I mostly use. It would be easier to have that option on all devices.

Hey!

 
The Spotify Community team here.
 

We're pleased to confirm that this feature should now be available to all Android users.
We'd recommend double-checking that you're running the latest version of Spotify.
 
Once again, thanks for showing your support here in the Community.

any updates on this topic?

even the tidal app for android has this basic feature...

Hi, just joined the Premium service and really surprised I can't move tracks around. I work as a fitness instructor and the ability to vary my track lists for different classes is very important! C'mon Spotify, sort it out!

The fact that this functionality is available only for iOS is a scandal!!! please Spotify this is not rocket science!!

If Spotify don't address this issue before Apple Streaming launches,
they’re extremely foolish. That gives them approximately 4 days...

This is just poor. I'm one of the paying customers and I'm sick of being ignored. This function is really essential and easy to make, so why is it taking you so long? 

Useless snowflake update at christmas, new playstation app, etc. and you've still not managed to build something easy but necessary as the customized-tracklist-order tool. I'm very disappointed.

PS.: You have deleted my constructive criticism on your facebook page, even if the comment was really formal and respectful written (no strong words, insults, sarcasm, bad manners or anything similar to that, so you had no reason to censor it). Also a poor useless work you've done at that point.

Spotify on PlayStation, using the game controller to operate functions: Is this a priority for the Spotify development team? Why not instead spend some of your resources to allow loyal paying subscribers to change the order of tracks in playlists and play queues, like all your competitors do. This is like a slap in the face for all us who have repeatedly asked for this feature.

I think it is incongruous be able to edit playlists on the iPhone and not be in the android system, which I imagine has more users around the world.

Just feel the same way, my only problem with spotify so far.

Any update on this please? It is incredibly frustrating that the android app still doesn't have this...

THIS. It has always driven me absolutely nuts that I've never been able to do this on my Android devices, especially considering that it has been a basic function in the iOs app since the first time I noticed it on my iPod touch a few years ago. I'm sure that Spotify will implement it sooner or later. After all, it's such a seemingly insignificant feature that it's probably just been overlooked, but when you have a reason to care about the order of tracks in a playlist, but can't do anything to change that order (I know about sorting, but that's not what I need), the omission of this feature is an incredibly frustrating brick wall.
