[Radio] Modifiable Thumbs up/down

Submitted by on ‎2012-11-29 03:22 AM
Status: Implemented

1) Change Thumbs up to Thumbs Down

2) Change Thumbs down to Thumbs up

3) Remove thumbs up

4) Remove thumbs down

5) See a list of your thumbs up for a playlist

 

All of these should exist, if not in the app at least on the website.

Hey folks, 

 

It seems like this idea has evolved into a lot of different threads over the years. Quite a lot of the features requested do exist, so I'm going to mark this as implemented - but if you feel like your specific idea isn't there please feel free to make a new idea. 

 

As a heads up, Thumbs up/down has been replaced by the Heart/Remove symbol across all platforms. Let's address some of the main ideas that have been implemented:

 

  • It is now possible to undo Heart or Dislike actions in your Daily Mixes, Discover Weekly and Release Radar. If you Heart a song, simply tap the Heart again to get rid of it.
  • When tapping the Dislike button, you'll get a choice of 'Don't play this song' or 'Don't play this Artist'. Tapping either will prompt an Undo option at the bottom of the screen for if you hit it by mistake, or your cat walked over your screen (@dredel)

  • Tapping Heart will save that song to Your Library, so you can head there to check out all the songs you've liked. This will also include Songs and Albums you've saved in other areas of the app. I couldn't find an idea for a playlist specifically of just liked songs (without the rest of the library) so it would be a good suggestion for a new idea.

 

I hope this clears some things up.

Is your database read only or something?

Please allow flexibility with thumbs up/down. This is a HUGE weak point for Spotify!!

It's absurd that I cannot undo an accidental thumbs up/down.

 alternate idea: add a time limit to thumbs down (and up), such as one day, one week, one month, one year, forever.  Allow ability to review and revise later.

I think it's more like 6 years. I'm not interested in using Spotify until
this problem is fixed. Nice to see I'm not alone 🙂

Yes Spotify please do not be like most other corps out there. Yes you can continue to make a profit without dealing with this. You can however listen to your customer base. You can make the world a better place, we all can. I am taking the time to post as it supports my views and others. I understand it would take some dev time. Though it would make people happy. Is not that why we are all here?

Peace.

Guys, c'mon... I accidentally gave a couple of songs thumbs down when I meant to hit the back button, and now my station isn't as fun. Please fix this,

Initially submitted here in 2012 by spotifyfalcon.  Last response (official) Feb.2017... 1year, 4 months ago, and over 5 years after initial post.

 

......and nothing but an overpriced IPO since.

 

Tells you what they care about.  I've since cancelled my family subscription and gone back to google+amazon for my music addiction.

 

Best of luck to anyone trying to stick it through and throwing up hopes, prayers and blog comments for change - this (very important) fix is bottom of the barrel to them, regardless what they say: their (in)actions have spoken volumes above their words.
