[Android] Remove the Shuffle / Play Button

Hi, I tried out your new design, which I have mixed feelings about, but nevermind that. The most annoying thing I come over in the new Spotify (for iPhone by the way) is the dumb, big, overlapping, unnecessary shuffle play button that pops up everywhere. Is this a bug or is this on purpose? Could at least had add an option for it. Also, it doesn't look streamlined at all with the current design. Did it even occur that not everyone wants a shuffle play button?

Hey folks,
As some of you will have noticed, this has changed on iOS.
We've updated the idea, so that we can update everyone more accurately with regards to Android.
We're marking this as a 'Good idea', too.
Please know that your feedback is reaching the right teams here.

We'll post an update if anything changes!
Thanks

What is up with the automatic shuffle of my play lists??? A month ago I could listen to my songs in the order I paced them in the play list, now I can't. WHY?? Annoying!!!!!!!

After reading all the comments I see I am not the only one discouraged by the automatic shuffle play. Get a clue Spotify!! Going elsewhere for my music needs. Obviously you have a problem that you don't intend to solve anytime soon. I was really enjoying Spotify until you decided to automatically shuffle play every album, every play list. Why did you implement this annoying change?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?

Please remove the "Shuffle Play" button or at least make it an option.  I created a playlist that I want played in a specific order, which I can't do because Spotify wants to shuffle the playlist.  Make it an option, shuffle or play!  I just signed up for your free trial of the premium service, but if this isn't fixed within 30 days, I will be cancelling my subscription!

Spotify automatically shuffles when using the free version, if you upgrade to Premium you can play any playlist, album, in any order you want.

 

I agree that the Shuffle button needs to be removed for Premium members.

Hubby wants to know how to switch off shuffle play on his iPad? I want to know too... 😄

But you can already listen to full albums.

1. Search for your album.

2. Tap on the first song.

3. On the current song playing screen disable shuffle.

Or am I wrong?

Yes this must be removed it's good enough with the shuffle option in the track display . This should simply be a play button .

 

You can still turn on shuffle permanently for the non premuim users , regardless of the button design and function . this has nothing to do with each other ?
