[Playlists] More Playlist Sorting Options/Columns

Sort options within Spotify are severely lacking.

 

First, what's lacking outright:

sort by year, total plays, personal playcount, current popularity, genre, tempo, etc.

 

On top of that, sorting should be stackable, e.g. sort by album by year, or sort artist by total plays, etc.

 

This could apply to within the artists' pages as well, allowing us to sort through all their songs to better find music that suits our tastes.

Hi folks. Thanks for all your votes and comments. We like this idea, but at the moment we're not planning to do this.

If something should change we'll be sure to come back and provide an update.

Please add a feature to sort by genre. I also would like to hide genres at any given time i.e., I don't want or need to see Christmas music year round.  It's a time waster to have to scroll through TONS of play lists or albums to find what I'm looking for.

 

Thank you!

While in playlist mode, I wish you'd add "genre" in the categories at top (Title, Album, Date added and track length).

Thanks

Proposal to implement the same genre sorting that is within your liked songs into EVERY playlist. The songs are already marked by genre as shown in spotify playlists and the ability to sort your liked songs. For example, I have a playlist with a ton of 80s and older music, some rock, folk, soul, and would love to be able to sort out to one of those genres at a time.

I love Spotify but would love to see more sorting options in playlists. Currently, we can sort by album, artist, and title. Could you add: Year-wise sorting (to organize songs chronologically) Language-wise sorting (to filter multilingual playlists) This would enhance the listening experience, especially for users with diverse playlists.
