[Queue] Queue to Next or Last

Present two options on rightclick, Queue Last and Queue Next. Very easy to implement, and useful. 

 

The way I been using spotty lately is to keep adding to Play Queue, it has gotten really long and sometimes I want to listen to something right now, then I have to add to queue and then move the songs all the way up to the top.

 

Mediamonkey have had this implemented since long ago. Mediamonkey is btw the best musicorganizer I've ever owned or tried.

Hey there,

 

Thanks for this submission. We had a slight hiccup with moving ideas to different boards, but it's all good now.

 

We're setting the status of this one as "not right now", but that doesn't mean that your votes don't count.

 

Cheers!

Hi again @AndreasMelhede,

 

That's exactly what the Add to Queue option does. If you're listening to a playlist of yours and want to listen right now to a song that is not in the playlist, but you want to continue with the playlist after that one song, you just need to add that specific song(s) to the Queue and it'll play right after the currently playing song ends. Then, when the selected song ends, your playlist will continue to play in the same order it was before, so the original queue will be unaffected.

 

To add a track to the Queue, just follow these steps:

 

For mobile:

  1. Tap  (iOS) /  (Android) next to the track you want to add.
  2. Tap Add to Queue.

Tip: On iOS, you can also swipe right on a track to add it to your queue.

 

For desktop:

  1. Right-click the track you want to add.
  2. Click Add to queue

Remember to take a look at this article, where you'll find more info about the Play Queue.

How about a feature that plays a song you selected, immediately after the track already playing and ignore what may be next on the current playlist or album?

Hey @AndreasMelhede

 

Thanks for reaching out about this here in the Community. 

 

We moved your post from the Ideas board to the relevant Help Board, where it fits better.

 

You can choose what you'd like to listen to next by adding it to the Play Queue. You just need to follow these specific steps.

 

If you have any questions, just let us know 🙂

AndreasMelhede

Thank you for sharing,  Eni.

So, what if you have 10, 100, or 50 songs in the queue? How does this solve my idea? 🙂

Hey @AndreasMelhede,

 

If you're referring to songs that you've already added to the Queue, but you want a specific song to play immediately next the one currently playing, you can move that song to the top of the Queue by dragging it so it'll play next. You can find how to do so in the article that @Eni shared above.

 

Hope this clears things up. The Community is here if you need anything else.

 

Cheers!

Not exactly.

Imagine this situation:

You are listening to a playlist of yours and suddenly your friend suggests that you play "As" By Stevie Wonder, which is not on your playlist. This is a beloved song that you haven't listed to in a while, so you want to listen to that song, but you simply want to go straight back to your Queue straight after. Now, where is that button on Spotify to fulfill that desire of yours?

At least give us an option to re-enable the "Plat Next" button if we want it or something.

Doesn't make sense to take useful features out because some users don't use them, while others were used to them.

KamilZywanowski

Please add a "Play next" button to add songs, albums or playlists to the top of the queue. Now it is required to scroll and move the added songs all the way up to play it next, a "Play next" button would be a convenient option and both Tidal and Apple Music have it.

Sucks you denied it. PLAY NEXT would be super helpful, especially when you're dealing with long queues and want to play just one song NEXT, cause you just found it. Now you are forced to drag the freaking song through dozens if not hundreds of positions queued. Nonsense.

Why is it so hard for Spotify to add a very basic feature ALL the other streaming services support? Play/Play last is so easy
