With the new Xbox one coming out and it not supporting flash, I believe Spotify needs to revamp their play.spotify.com site to support HTML5 also, flash is a bit old, isn't it? I think this will greatly improve the experience on the site as well. <br><br>Thank you. ... View more

The minimalism of the web player makes it near unusable (self.spotify) submitted 2 minutes ago by MovkeyB Here is a list of basic stuff that got removed: See the radio See the queue See the song length see how far in the song you are Here is stuff that got destroyed in terms of functionality. adding a song to a playlist is now a lot more difficult and requires moving a lot more bc it opens up a HUGE window instead of the little menu The volume slider is not live, its drag and drop so you can't hear the effect of the volume change in real time Everything is HUGE and they just seem to love all the dead space and tell me pretty much nothing about whats going on. It's atrocious. I've used it for about 10 minutes and I already despise it with a burning passion. These things I mentioned are just the ones that are just immediately obvious because I USE THEM FREQUENTLY ... View more

Since version 1.0.1. (yesterday), the system tray icon is gone. And with it the functionality to close Spotify and remove it from the task bar while it still being active.   I feel this is a huge reduction in functionality and usability, and urge the return of the system tray icon. Minimizing the application should remove it from the task bar and put it in the system tray, so that it does not hog the limited space on the task bar.   Personally I rarely enter the Spotify main application, only to select a different playlist. It has no permanent place on my task bar.   Thanks. ... View more

I have just discovered podcasts in the Spotify mobile app and as an avid podast fan I'm delighted to finally see this feature! I would love to be able to alter the speed of a podcast, to play at 1.5X or 2X the default speed as per the default apple podcast app I currently use.   As many podcasts I listen to are very long (up to 2 hours), until such time as the playback speed can be altered I will use the apple podcast app to listen to podcasts.     ...

Currently, the "Like All Songs" button for an album or playlist is only visible if you Save an album, go find the Album in your library, open the album, and tap the 3-dot menu from there. If we've opened the album or playlist from a different location (such as the artist's page), we should be able to tap on the 3-dot menu from there and like all songs. The current system is confusing and it's taken me months from the new UI update to even realize that this is why the "Like All Songs" button wasn't showing up everywhere. The "Like All Songs" button should be an option when you click the 3-dot menu of any list of songs, regardless of whether you've saved the playlist or album yet.  ... View more

The Spotify Team updated the Spotify Free app with a brand new design. I find this new design much better than the current one, and I was mildly disappointed when I upgraded my account and saw the "old" design again.  This new one is much simpler and and sexier than the Premium design.

I love to use the spotify radio feature on my computer, but I enjoy using my sonos system as well, which doesn't currently have that function.    I have been reading adding spotify radio is something being discussed currently, so please allow Sonos to add Spotify radio to their system.  I am happy to pay for the premium spotify account as I already am to enable this feature, I just want to have it integrated into the sonos system, so I can actually fully enjoy both spotify and sonos. ...

I'd like to be able to see the date an album was originally released, even if the current version is a re-release. So many albums are re-released that for some artists it looks like all of their albums came out in the last few years, even though some of them may actually be a decade old or older.   When this happens, I wind up just having to go to Wikipedia or Allmusic to find out the real info. But why drive me away from the Spotify experience? ... View more

Before Spotify I had (well still have, but mostly untouched these days) large MP3 collection organized into Artist/Album/Tracks folder structure.  This worked well for me and combined with Playlists meant that I maintained my personal "collection" of "Albums" as well as favourite tracks and Playlists for particular occasions / moods.   What I find these days is that I'm losing track of Albums, I have Spotify Playlists (although the flat Playlist structure tires me), but it's just not the same as having a personalized "Collection" of music.   Spotify needs to add the ability to build your own "Collection" (not Library, which is still track based), this should be organized however you like, but at least providing Artist / Album / Year drill-down structure (folders or not).  It'd be nice to match this against existing MP3 collections and Libraries.  The ability to tag playlists and collections (and/or albums) would also be a bonus.   What I'm getting at here is the missing part (for me) in Spotify is the ability to "virtualize" (cloudize?) my mental image of a music collection, which is shelves of albums sorted into some logical order (years, artists, genre, whatever), but mostly Albums, not just Tracks.   My 2 cents.   UPDATE 21/4/13: I don't seem to be "allowed" to embed images in my posts (sad).  I've recently been using Google Music on a Nexus 10 and I have to say it has almost the perfect Album / Genre / Artist interface.  I particularly love the way that in Artist view you see Albums stacked and they move subtly in 3D as you scroll.  The only thing missing here would be Year and latest-added sort/views.  Anyway here are the screenshots, this is DEFINITELY a better way to "visualize my collection":   http://community.spotify.com/t5/media/gallerypage/user-id/298076/album-id/3824   UPDATE 16/5/13:   Google Play Music All Access does this and more   Sorry Spotify but looks like you were too slow.  Google just ate your lunch, dinner and breakfast for the next 10 years.  Google Play Music All Access has the above functionality (add any album to "my collection") and more, including a MUCH better visualization of your collection, album based browsing and a considerably better radio implementation.   UPDATE 21/5/13:   Spotify ignore albums, again   It's pretty obvious now that Spotify have no interest in the albums or the art of constructing an album, don't they realize that most artists work for years to create a "piece of work" known as an album, not just a bunch of random tracks?  Today Spotify launched their "Charts", which once again completely ignore albums... What with Google Play Music All Access and Rdio I think Spotify are going down the slippery fail slope to irrelevance.   http://charts.spotify.com/   UPDATE 1/1/14:   Looks like Spotify took this suggestion seriously and have been beta testing Collections for quite a while (yes, they made me a beta tester ;) )  It works well and I'd imagine it'll be mainstream soon.    (Keep giving the idea Kudos to continue to support it) ...

The idea is to be able to share a little piece of the song you are listening. Using the app interface as the image or anyting that your team comes up with. You see, many people do this using their cameras or taking prints of the app. Being able to share a piece of the music in a good quality would be awsome! (and would be a great marketing campaing for those instagram users that dont use spotfy!)  If you have any thing to say please contact me as well, love your work guys!    -Iannes Patrus ...

When the Spotify app is in focus keep the screen on and prevent it from locking. Just like in PowerAmp, this should be an optional setting.   It's really annoying to have to unlock the phone to skip tracks, or see the name of the current song or artist, especially when driving.   ... View more
