Bring back the heart button!

[Urticlaire]

It's SUPER frustrating, we can't see which songs we liked in our own playlists, Bring back the heart button PLEASE, the new way doesn't work AT ALL

[AxurZarrk]

I used it as a sort of ‘add to library’, my frustration now is I would like to look through a playlist and see that everything is in my library (liked songs).

I used to be able to do this very easily but now the only way to know is by searching each individually which is a nightmare.

do the users get any credit or payment from these ideas if they are implemented?

[JosefDeKrita]

The like button was completely functional before. Why should i continue paying for a service that repeatedly makes its own platform WORSE.

Update:

In the meantime ive already finished the Spotify Abo ! 

And iam very happy about that.

Have switched to DEEZER !

Much much better Sound Quality ! , and

Good Bye Spotify (:

I understand that these changes may have been implemented with the intention of simplifying the platform or introducing new functionalities. However, I believe that maintaining both icons (heart and green tick) would provide better transparency in managing our saved songs and playlists. This functionality was not only convenient but also essential for many users who manage their music libraries carefully.

Given the negative impact these changes have had on my experience, I have started exploring alternatives on other music streaming platforms that offer similar features. For example:

• Apple Music: This platform maintains a clear system for managing saved songs with heart icons that allow users to quickly identify their favorite songs. Additionally, integration with Apple devices and the iCloud library provides a cohesive user experience.

• Tidal: Offers high sound quality and a user interface that allows efficient management of playlists and saved songs, with clear "Like" options and visual markers.

• Amazon Music: Provides a simple user experience with intuitive icons for adding songs to playlists or personal libraries, allowing for easy identification of favorite songs.

• YouTube Music: Although it works differently, it allows users to mark songs and playlists as "liked" and offers recommendations based on these interactions.

I appreciate the hard work the Spotify team puts into continuously improving the platform. However, I suggest that user feedback on these recent changes be considered, and that the possibility of re-implementing an interface that includes both the heart and green tick icons be explored for a better user experience.

It's really frustrating to have a music service where you can't see the songs you've marked as favorites everywhere, lists, albums, etc... The removal of the heart to mark and, at the same time, see my favorite songs at a glance, has significantly impoverished my user experience on Spotify.
Many of us would like to see the heart come back, or any other symbol that identifies that the user has marked a song as a favorite. A simple click, and a permanent symbol. It's not difficult Spotify.

[TO THE MODERATOR ONLY]

I had posted a Live Idea that was incorrectly merged with this live idea today by a moderator named Novy. The above idea is a great idea that I fully support, but it's the exact opposite of my idea. The above idea relates to easily seeing which songs in a playlist (for example) have not been liked yet. My idea was to easily see which of your Liked Songs have not yet been added to a playlist. My idea was posted at the link below and I'm requesting that these separate ideas be unmerged.  Thank you!

Can Spotify explain why they removed it and why they are not returning to it? There must be a reason....

[jmo1112]

Listen. People use Spotify in their cars while driving. The less clicks you have to do, the better. So why did we change a one-click solution of liking songs to now require multiple clicks and having to focus in on the phone to see which playlist you’re adding it to? 

Change for the sake of change is stupid. They need to hire a Common Sense Consultant.  

Might as well hide the pause and skip button behind a “tap for more” menu while we’re at it. 🙄

i left spotify because of this stupid change a year ago. got back on spotify yesterday cause no other platform had this large music collection or recommendation algorithm, unfortunately they didn't revert this even after all the votes**bleep** got. Now all i can do is beg and plead. please bring the **bleep**ing heart button back. i add songs to playlist all the time but it was hearted songs on playlist that let me know it's the absolute favorites for a specific theme of songs on the playlist
