Daniel Ek told me in person that Repeat One is his favorite Spotify feature.

Why isn't there an option to just repeat a track? I hate having to place a song in a playlist of its own, and then put it on repeat which just repeats the playlist. People have been suggesting you add this feature for years now!

EVERY music app should have this feature! This feature should be on all the Spotify apps across all platforms.

Add it to the same button as now with a 3-step repeat mode:

1. Repeat ALL/PLAYLIST 
2. Repeat TRACK

3. Repeat OFF

My mockup of what this would look like in the iPad app (similar for desktop and other mobile devices):

My Comments:

If Spotify wants to compete with the competition, they need to add this basic feature!

It worries me that Spotify hasn't implemented this popular simple idea from 4 years ago, but instead they implement more complex newer ideas.

If you ask some people -- this has been a request since the launch of Spotify.

I love Spotify, but it hurts that a simple feature like this gets passed up every time new features are rolled out.

I feel like I'm living in the 1990s with no repeat track mode anywhere to be found within Spotify.

This is a basic feature and it's being looked at like a grain of salt. 

I comb through Twitter search every day and a lot of people are very confused on how the repeat mode works so I link them to this idea.

I've referred 50+ people now to the link... some didn't know that it only repeated the playlist.

This is very confusing for a lot of people, especially newcomers.

Oh and look at all of these confused people:

Agreed. I currently found few old fav songs from old movies etc. and I'd wish to listen to the main score only etc, but creating a playlist for it is a bit too drastic, so having an easy option to replay a single track or a single playlist - would be a great help.

We've been told this would eventually get implemented, but I'm starting to lose faith.

Hopefully soon!

This, and a better shuffle mode, are what I think Spotify needs the most right now...

*Bump*

Spotify, c'mon!!! 🙂

I just don't get why it took a lot of people's votes to get it done. It's such a basic and uniform feature on all types of media players. I'm so confused.

Pleaseeee do this Spotify! It would be so nice to be able to repeat a track when I'm learning lyrics for auditions or filming a music video... or I just LIKE THE SONG! PLEASE. 

[AshleyW]

Please! I do this ALL the time, about 50% of my playlist are one song playlists for repeats. I don't want to have to constantly play a song. I'm a developer so I know this is a simple feature to put in. C'mon Spotify, this is basic Startup 101: LISTEN TO YOUR USERS.

Need this, need this, need this! Spotify do something to this... This a job for one minute, why you ingnore it???
