FIX SPOTIFY'S SHUFFLE

[Balkankallj]

FIX SPOTIFY'S SHUFFLE. How can you even call it a shuffle. Even though I've deleted my cache and restartet the app many times, when I go to my playlist and select shuffle, not only one or two of the same songs get played, BUT IT'S THE SAME 6-7 SONGS IN THE SAME ORDER EACH TIME. It is mathematically impossible! I have three hours of different songs I want to hear. PLEASE make it more random, I know A LOT of people feel the same way. It's so frustrating!!

Yes, please! I wouldn't be choosing the shuffle option if I wanted to hear the same 10 songs in a 4 hour playlist every time. I want to hear different ones.

I'm sure lots of people enjoy hearing a "top 40" version of their playlist when they shuffle.  After all, that's what kept radio alive for decades.  Or maybe Spotify just gets more money by playing certain hits and artists.

And if all that's true, fine.  But can you at least make an option, even hidden deep in the settings, for those of us who really truly enjoy hearing things we haven't heard in awhile from our playlists?  A "true" shuffle.  I understand that computers don't really have the ability to get true randomness, but the current system is very obviously intentionally weighted.

There is already a thread about this with more votes --> Option to have a true shuffle. Go over to that one and add your votes.

You can fix it yourself by adding new songs or removing other songs from your playlist so that the shuffle function plays different songs. Additionally, you can use tools on third-party websites that reshuffle your playlist.

It seems to happen more on my PC than any other device.

I feel the pain.. often the shuffle order is *the exact same*..

With the new $4!!!!!! A month increase (again!!!) to “improve features”, if this doesn’t get fixed I might have to cancel my account to make a point.

SO REAL on my phone where I don't have premium I legit listen to the same 50 songs on my 900 song long playlist
