[Android] Swipe to Queue a Track

Firstly let me say I have been using Spotify since it launched here in the US and have seen a lot of great improvements over the years. Great job!

I am a music listener who likes to let the current track play out before starting a new one.
I love what you have done on the iOS side with swipe to queue.

Can you show Android some love and put this story in your backlog? 🙂

Thanks for listening!

Hey folks,

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

We're happy to announce that this feature is now rolling out on Android devices. If you don't see it yet, don't worry as it will be available for you soon. Just make sure to keep your app up to date. 

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

I am sure you have heard  the "I am a loyal Spotify user" about a million times. But you can't ignore adding this feature anymore. After adding back in the lyrics feature, and adding the SWIPE to pin feature. How can you not add a swipe to queue feature. It is a feature which will only enhance the user experience. This feature has been out on the iOS version of the app for more than five years now, and it has worked fine. As an android user, I am very disappointed that this feature had not been added yet. With this many people backing  up this idea. I don't see why it hasn't been implemented in the last years. I and all the people on this idea think it is time to change that.

Come on, Spotify!

I've been waiting for this feature for ages!
The technology is already there, you can pin entire playlists by swiping left to right, but it is not possible to add this function to queue songs?

Title says it all. My idea is that you tell us why it can't be done.

Hi, as an long-term iPhone user after switching to Android I saw a few issues. I think that Spotify should add swiping left or right to add to favourite or queue like on IOS. It would make a user experience much better and faster especially now when smartphones are becoming bigger and bigger.
Also swiping all over the app should be a thing but unfortunately it isn't. For example swiping down instead of having to click an arrow. Hope you have a nice day and consider my suggestions.

I would really love this idea. It's takes around 2 seconds to add a song to the queue whereas it only takes a swipe on iOS.

 

YouTube also has this feature to remove videos in a playlist.

Please implement this feature.  I just found out that Apple has this functionality a few weeks ago.

Bro it's crazy. Apple has had this feature for like 10 years. Even iPhone
6's have this feature. It's ridiculous

YES, the feature is basically already present on pinning playlists swiping right, that would be a great upgrade to the UX.

I'd voluntarily add this feature myself if @Spotify is into it 😉

Can we get this feature reevaluated please? Votes continue to climb, support continues to climb, it just makes snse to implement. Duh
