[Mobile] Get rid of 'Create' button on mobile navigation bar

[marcoslaporte8]

I recently got the last update, and found that a fourth button was added to the bottom navbar. What's the point of this? It's in the way of entering 'Your Library' section, as this was the default spot for that button.

Besides that, does it really need to have a shortcut? How often do people create new playlists or blends? There's already a button for that in 'Your Library', so...

I think removing this button will improve UI.

the new settings to turn off + button on nav bar appears at [my profile icon click -> settings -> contents and display -> + button toggle on the bottom of the list]. I successfully removed via that menu.

Yup. Welcome to the party of users who are baffled by this update...

Reposting from my tweet on this: 

SACK YOUR UI TEAM AND PUT THE LIBRARY BUTTON BACK ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE AS IT’S BEEN FOR FOREVER.

EITHER REVERT AND REMOVE THE CREATE BUTTON AND TRY AGAIN, PLACE IT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BOTTOM ICONS, OR GIVE THE PROPER SOLUTION WHICH WOULD BE USERS CAN HIDE IT/REORDER AND CUSTOMISE THEIR BOTTOM BAR THEMSELVES

Which senior management person forced this through? Any user testing?

Key UI principles: clarity, consistency, user control, comfort, ease of use, and accessibility.

❌ Consistency
❌ Comfort (users have to stretch thumbs further to avoid a button they didn’t want or ask for in the first place.)

❌ No user control / customisation
❌ Ease of use
❌ Accessibility (see comfort above, less nimble/those suffering with mobility and/or neuro/MSD problems will have a harder time. )

An entire button on the bottom bar is not needed for one function in the app. The button could be made more clearly in the Your Library section if people finding the function is an issue.

Revert to previous version by removing Create Button from Nav Bar

didn't liked the new button which added at bottom right, that old 3 buttons was simple and adequate. There was no need to add another button, making a mess

I absolutely hate this, please remove it or make it optional in settings. Why would you ever move the most-used button in your whole app?

It also pushes the 'search' button one to the left and I use that a lot with my right thumb.

Now I have to use my left and it messes everything up.

Spotify is back on their f**king bulls**t with this one. I promise you this was done very intentionally to have users accidentally tap on the button to show them the new AI SLOP. Especially with the new subscription tier coming out with the music remixing. 

I am so tired of this s**t…. I miss napster

+1 for removing the button and reverting back to how the dock used to be.
