[Mobile] Get rid of 'Create' button on mobile navigation bar

marcoslaporte8_1-1729535408614.png

I recently got the last update, and found that a fourth button was added to the bottom navbar. What's the point of this? It's in the way of entering 'Your Library' section, as this was the default spot for that button.

Besides that, does it really need to have a shortcut? How often do people create new playlists or blends? There's already a button for that in 'Your Library', so...

I think removing this button will improve UI.

The worst and most useless annoying update ever. I click Your library daily now it’s always the god damn create button. Why didn’t you put it in the left corner at least?! Whoever came up with this should be kicked in the ass!!

I am trying to disable the "Create" button on the lower right of my home screen on the mobile app (I have an iPhone). It is extremely disruptive to my user experience. How can I remove it? 

 

Thank you.

I **bleep**ING AGREE. lets hope they listen, legit nobody wants this button. NOBODY. Worst decision ever, i might consider apple music now tbh.

YES FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, who made this change and thought it was a good idea? its horrible. Nobody wants this, i genuinely NEVER create playlists, and now I have to deal with this **bleep**ass button.
