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

Submitted by on ‎2024-10-21 07:27 PM
Status: Implemented

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.

Yes remove it. Very annoying. Who create playlists on a daily basis?

The newly added Create Button is messing up with the intuitive use of the app. Place it somewhere else please

Every time I have to navigate on the destkop app I wanna scream from the top of my lungs out of frustration with the absolutely insane choice of SQUEEZING the library column on the left and STRETCHING the songlist (when you click an album, playlist, etc) on the right. Do these developers ever use this godforsaken app? Do they just not have libraries with more than 6 items, are they actively trying to **bleep** us off or are they just plain stupid?

It seems they just don't care about our feedback, because we also have had going on a discussion about returning the queue to the middle which has been utterly ignored and disrespected. I will find a way to export my playlists into a csv file or something or even do a plain txt to move them manually one by one. I've been a Premium user with a family plan for a while and looking to cut on costs, so Cr**tify will get the axe.
