[Your Music] Creating "Collections" of Albums

[Walrusman]

I have an idea that could make using Spotify better for people who put a lot of effort into managing their music libraries (and for everyone else as well).

Collections menu in Your Library

The idea is simple: Being able to create collections or lists of whole albums. Of course you could just add albums to regular playlists but then it just adds the songs separately, which is messy, so you can't easily see which or how many albums are there in the list or checking if there are missing songs.

You can add and remove whole albums to collections, much like songs to playlists

By having album collections we could easily see which albums are added to them and it would make it quicker to select certain albums for downloading by toggling the download button of a collection containing them. We could also re-order the list of albums quicker than re-ordering a simple playlist of consecutive albums broken down to songs.

This would also make it possible to listen to certain albums in a specific or even random order without having to add every album to the queue one by one.

You can download/un-download every album in the collection with one tap, you can also either play the albums in order or shuffle them, or even shuffle all songs within the albumsAdding or removing albums from collections

Sigh, another great idea marked as "not right now" years ago that seems like it will never be revisited. This would be awesome to sort, even if it's just albums listened to vs ones you want to get to or to sort albums categorically. Pleaseeee Spotify, revisit some of these "not right now" ideas. There are some seemingly easy to implement ones that would change the user experience so positively!

Upping this as I'd also like to have this feature

How it is 2025 and we don't have this feature yet is utterly absurd. It's got to be one of the most obvious feature surely.

Playlists and collections are different concepts surely??

I'm thinking of changing to Apple Music because they have this on desktop mode. I always create a year playlist, so I can have access to all "2025" albuns. If they aren't divided by album it's a **bleep** of a mess of long list display of songs. It would be so simple to add this.
