[Mobile] View & Shuffle all Tracks in Playlist Folders

The latest spotify for android update, as well as the newest iOS update, removed the "shuffle all" option for multiple playlists within a folder. I used this feature every day and it's my favorite spotify feature. Please bring it back!

Hey folks,



 

Thanks for coming to the Community, and adding your vote to this idea!



 

We're setting this idea to 'Not Right Now', as this isn't something we have any immediate plans to implement. We appreciate you sharing your thoughts.

 

If we do have any new info to share, rest assured we'll check back in here with a new status.

 



Thanks

If i'm ever switching to another music streaming service, it's because Spotify disregards the wishes of the advanced user. Please spotify, add an Advanced Mode to not overwhelm the standard user but to please the advanced user, with all the functionalities you scrap because of simple user experience.

It is really sad too see how much Spotify Team ignore it's users.

It is a joke that we ask for bringing back function which was already there in previous versions.

What kind of technical trouble stays on your way? There is nothing to invent - just to bring back.

 

BTW, Dear Users - do you have any workaround for this?  For now, only idea I have is to manually copy songs from playlist to other big merged playlist. It is a shame...

If my kids didn't insist on Spotify I wouldn't even be using this stupid app.  These guys don't give a **bleep** what users want.  Why would you remove such a usful feature and then when everyone cries to get it back mark the suggestion as "not now"?  Stupid....

 

I followed the suggestion on this page:  https://community.spotify.com/t5/Android/Removed-the-ability-to-shuffle-play-all-playlist-in-a-folde...

to downgrade.  Except the link for the apk didn't work.  You can use this one to get the old apk:  https://spotify.en.uptodown.com/android/download/1513527

 

Just make sure you turn off the auto-updating for this app only.

After all i left this ignorant streamingportal an went to Deezer. Deezer has already the Shuffle Function.

Ridiculous that this feature was removed. It's still on the desktop version but why remove it from mobile? Straight up stupid.

I was at the Velocity Tech Conference this last week, where Spotify had a booth to hire engineers.  I went there and started complaining bitterly about how many users find this issue important, and that there has been no resolution or response for over two years.  One of the engineers invited me to email him, which I have now done. 

 

I asked him to give us a response, either yes, it's coming back, or no, and here is why.  I also asked for a workaround in case the answer is no.  Let's see if we finally get some action on this!

I predict no response.
