Removing items from Recently Played history

I would also like it if we had the option to remove our recently played history because sometimes I would listen to someone's playlist, an artist, or one of my own playlists by accident and I don't really listen to the playlist or artist anymore or I already have a song by that artist and it doesn't make sense to keep it in my library or recently played history.

It's Annoying that this isn't Possibble - When Google randomly de ides to play a rondom podcast i didn't tell it to play and it's now on my listneing list I would like to remove it it. Why is this ability not available anymore?????? That's weird?????

Why has this not been implemented yet?  This is ridiculous.

Just to update. It's the end of March 2023. This still hasn't been fixed

I am going around to all of these suggestions for removal of songs from history because it is NEEDED!!! I love my kids, but I hate having to listen to bedtime lullabies pop-up in my favorite lists and would take the time every day to remove those songs if I could. Please Spotify, let us remove irrelevant songs!

Hi

Sometimes I don't want that the podcast I've listened, is shown on my historic (you see what I mean ...)

Could you add a "delete" in the 3 dots menu of the podcasts historic please ?

thank you

Please add this feature. Whenever my Google Home fails to understand me and starts playing random artists/songs, they appear on my home page in the app. I want to be able to delete them.

Also, I often listen to music while I am writing papers and reports at work. During this time I listen to coffee table jazz, something that is easy listening without words. While I do enjoy listening to this while at work, I wouldn't consider this my style of music and would not listen to this on my own time. I would like to have the option to listen to this music without it affecting the Spotify algorithm that develops playlists for me.

This was a real feature that Spotify took away for no reason. This has been a requested feature since that time. It’s been 4 years and all we have is a BS response from “Mario” in 2021. PUT THIS FEATURE BACK FFS!!! The ability to freely listen to music and decide to NOT keep in my history is invaluable. Give it back.

My ex made a playlist with me which was a cute idea at the time. Now Spotify is punishing me with reminding me someone that gave me a black eye and a cut on the side of my face was someone I allowed in my life
