[Android][Developer] Android 13 Media Player

[Jammie16]

(This problem is solved on the latest beta version of Spotify for Android, thanks for all who replied and voted to this <3)

Hi, currently the Android version of the app is running in SDK target of 31, because of that, the media player in Android 13 is not fully adapted to it, with the background image in low resolution and no redesign, if you guys update the app to the SDK target of 33 the app will run perfectly in the current version of Android, with the new design, (the problem of low res background is still occuring). Here are some screenshots:

Hey! Looks like your idea is growing up fast and it's amazing! We are going to change its status to 'Good Suggestion' now and we hope it continues being supported by more and more users.
Thanks again for your suggestion. We really appreciate it 🙂

The fact that this still isn't implemented more than a month after Android 13 release is shameful. A lot of small developers do a far better job at supporting Android than Spotify. I'm so tired of asking for basic stuff all the time.

OI SPOTIFY.

What are the chances we can get you to stop:

• finding new and horrible ways to push podcasts nobody cares about
• creating "curated" playlists that all feature the same 11 tracks as each other
•  gargling Apple's cüm with reckless abandon

for just long enough to apply some basic updates to your Android app?

Where is this at?

Would love to see this added. I've gotten a few free apps that have already updated to support the new version of Android, meanwhile the app I pay monthly for still hasn't updated. I'm not a developer but I can't imagine this is a huge update. 

Side note. While typing this message I got interrupted TWICE by a pop up asking me to leave feedback. Had to scroll all the way up to dismiss it. Seriously?

Hope this happens soon...

How many votes does this need?

No matter how many votes this gets it won't get done. They just make these pages for us to vent and pretend like they're listening
