Click album art to go to song in playlist

It used to be functionality that if you clicked on album art (in bottom left corner or in Now Playing window) it would open the current playlist showing the currently playing track. This no longer works. 

Please bring it back as it is really time-consuming trying to find the track in the playlist (in large playlists). I used to use this function for almost every track that played. It's really annoying it no longer works.

Current functionality of clicking on album art in Now Playing takes you to the album - this is pointless as you can do that by clicking on the song title in Now Playing to do that.

SOLUTION: You can jump to the song in the current playlist - click on the Playlist Name at the top of the Now Playing pane (i.e. above the album art)

I just tried it... yes it sends you to the playlist... in my case to my liked songs, but not to the position of the song... that's what I meant... doesn't work! And just for information: I am using the app on my mobile.

Can it really be so difficult to fix that?

The previous design was a nice, convenient piece of UI, especially for those of us with lots of playlists and who like to explore the rest of the app. The compensation of Click on Album Cover  --> Open Up the Now Playing Window --> Click on Playlist is a halfhearted substitute at best; not only is it more steps, but it doesn't show you the song's position (helpful if you have a list of 200+ songs). 

I use Spotify to maintain my focus and sanity during long workdays at home. Have some pity on those of us doing remote work while managing a household

I used to do that all the time, and now it doesn't work unless you click on the art then the playlist name. And even then, it doesn't work if you're in the playlist.

It strange that Spotify keeps removing and adding this feature thruough the years. I mean is there anybody that dislikes the function?

Oh my goodness - thank you for the solution!
I've clicked just about everything looking for something that might do it but not that

So, in "now playing" (top right corner) clicking the playlist name above the album art worked!

Posted about this today, and I’m really hoping it comes back. The lack of this feature makes it more time consuming due to the fact you have to scroll almost endlessly to get to a song if you can remember where it is located at least.

When playing songs from a playlist, it can be a bit difficult to know what playlist is currently in progress. The sidebar can be useful for saved playlists, but it would be good to have that listed in the now playing section, along with the song name and artist. Many times I have clicked on the song and was taken to the album instead of the playlist I'm playing from.
