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:

I for one would like to see repeat function on all devices. There are sometimes songs that fit to a certain moment, and to be able to put the 1 song on repeat for a time, would be great.

I updated the idea post with A LOT more detail.

Key arguments! 

[MattSuda]

The fact that this is still "under consideration" just blows my mind!

[neo-x]

I get the point. I'd like to see this option available. Since it's been a high valued feature requested for a long period of time, I'd say that IF Spotify really listens to its users, this would have been implemented long time a go. Since it has lots of Kudoes etc, and the timespan is long - I wouldn't hold my breath for it to be released any time near future.... 2 bad tho.

What I usually do is add the song to a new playlist, which is essentially the same as the feature you propose. A simple button would be nice though, I agree.

Wish this idea would get implemented.

This is nobrainer taks.. what took you so long? 

Apart from the content provider, YOU ARE THE MUSIC PLAYER! There is no excuse to not have par with industry standart players. Equalizer anyone?

[user-removed]

Hey folks!

I love Spotify, but no repeat one is bad thing. Spotify is not music player for me until this is fixed!

So please let me talk to othewrs about Spotify as music player soon.

Thanks!
