Bring Back Sorting in Search Results

[doughertyp]

This is bad, guys!  

Once was the day (last week) you could sort all of your search results by artist, album, length OR popularity simply by clicking on the name of that column in the full search results view.  

It's even mentioned in a "Solution" from last week.

Now, the column headings are unresponsive and there is now way to group the results of your search, like when you want to see different versions of the same song by one artist:

There seems to be some problems w/ the search function in other aspects of the redesign so perhaps a fix is in the works?

Spotify's greatest strength is the diversity of music accessible but people enjoy it in different ways, not just by popularity.

Please bring back sorting in search results!  This is big hole!

bring back search results for all albumns under an artist, not just top 5 or 10, current (web app) search function virtually unusable.

Dear Spotify.

Please bring back sorting search results. I use that function every single day and now that it is gone, I can't really use your program anymore. If you don't get this service up and running again I will consider switching to another streaming service.

It’s absolutely ridiculous that a function that was available with the original iTunes is no longer available. For some reason I don’t think they want us to be able to find recordings of specific songs.? It’s just insane that when you search for a song and you asked to limit your search to all songs with that particular name… You don’t get it.

Please bring back the sorting. Its really difficult to fins anything in search now!

After years of frustration I finally quit Spotify perhaps I’ll re-join.

Still can't sort search results.

Spotify Community can sort search results. Why can't any of the apps I pay for do the same?

I started this years and years ago Spotify doesn’t care about searching. I ended up just using YouTube for the longest amount of time but it seems like Apple Music now has an improved search so I may stick with it. Spotify though forget it boo stinky bad

Totally agree with the last two posts. I was a prime member more or less
since the start, but looking for something has turned into a nightmare. My
money is now better spent on you tube premium for just a little more. Way
too many adverts on spotify free now, they're cutting their own throats

Wow. 37 comment pages, but still no solution and it's forbidden to upvote the topic.

Likes for comments are also banned.

As a new user of Spotify, I understand better and better how Spotify's policy works.

10 years later, 2014 - 2024, users are still not allowed to use a basic function of the Web 1.0 area? Really?

Spotify, Why am I not allowed to edit my comment this time? I wanted to add a screenshot:
