[Mobile] Option to customize Your Daily Drive

Just got a playlist called "Your Daily Drive". So far, it's great because it mixes in news-like podcast snippets inbetween suggested songs.

 

However, it'd be great to mark a podcast as 'do not play again' or 'dislike' so it doesn't show up or similar podcasts don't appear. 

 

It would also like to love/like songs that appear, as well as the ability to complete skip a podcast if its something I'm less interested in. Podcast runs similar to normal podcast, but I feel that this is a different experience (and a catered one), we should have more freedom to skip/like/love/dislike to make this experience improve over time.

 

Thank you!

Also would be good if you could choose where you get your news source from.

I fully support the idea to be able to edit podcasts that we are receiving in "Daily drive". Some of them cover interesting topics (such as global news), but some of them I am really not interested at all (e.g. sport).

People have been commenting on this for four years now. We're still waiting. Having to edit the Daily Drive every single morning to remove a podcast that I NEVER listen to is infuriating. Why is it still appearing? Meanwhile, a podcast that I DO listen to has disappeared from the list?

You want to "promote" shows on the Home Screen - I get it, that's business. But if I'm not interested, I'M NOT INTERESTED.

My Question or Issue

 

Nova funcionalidade de CaminhosCaminho Diário é interessante, misturando notícia e música é quase um canal rádio. Porém adicionaram podcasts que não tenho interesse algum como horóscopo e não é possível nem remover e nem marcar uma opção pra não aparecer novamente.

Estou com o mesmo problema, mas além do horóscopo, um podcast supostamente de notícias.

Não entendo como um podcast com uma avaliação tão baixa (a menor que eu já vi até hoje entre podcasts "jornalísticos") pode entrar para uma playlist tão relevante (suponho que muitos ouvintes diários a utilizem) como essa.

The episode is 3 months old and already "played" plus I unfollowed the podcast. It still happens. How do I make it stop????

I posted a complaint about how a very old "goodbye" episode of a podcast keeps getting played in my daily drive and an admin merged it here - this seems to be partially appropriate but I still think it would be best if we could simply "block" particular podcast episodes, or even entire podcasts, just in general and not specifically for Daily Drive. Also this is not a "mobile" issue for me as I'm listening on a smart speaker playing a scheduled routine, so again, not 100% appropriate for this topic but close enough maybe kinda sorta?? Hopefully the Dev team prioritizes this.

Completely agree! I love daily drive/daily commute but am soon giving it up because it gets so frustrating when it keeps skipping back to podcasts I have already listened to or don’t want to listen to.

Yes change it I would like to listen to news and music but not the same stupid songs day to day allow us to pick the kind of songs or be able to incorporate our own playlists.

Really?

This "idea" is from 2020 an yet no changes, Spotify?

We need to be able to change or select what we want to hear in Daily Drive, sort of select music and podcasts, or at least, select the playlists and change them every now and then.
