disable all video content inside Spotify - allow only music

[user-removed]

I caught my 15yo watching MrBeast on Spotify. I was not aware that Spotify will allow anything beside music. The idea behind family plan was to allow my kids to explore world of music, discover old and new artists, find their music, something we can talk about. Catching my teen watchign this mindless beast **bleep** is massively disappointing. I thought of Spotify as a sanctuary from ever more toxic social media. I am willing to pay, I am not willing to expose my kids to trash. I am canceling my subscription as the result will explore service alternatives. I hope Spotify at some point rectify this problem and allow parents to control content their kids are exposed to. 
Spotify Kids is NOT a solution for teens.

You’re a music app. 
Be a music app. 
You are not TikTok. 
You are not YouTube. 
You 👏 Are 👏 A 👏 Music 👏 App 👏.  
It’s bad enough you brought AI garbage into the app, there’s no need for videos. 
They’re not edgy. They’re not unique. They’re not fun. They’re absolute nonsense and battery drains.

Yes . Make it audio ONLY. 

purpose built apps are much better. I watch youtube for videos

i listen to spotify for audio

The quality of Spotify videos isn't very sharp anyways.  Who needs videos over there when you can see them on YouTube?

Yes! This! I hate these videos twinkling away on my screen, using bandwidth, in turn burning energy, and just generally distracting. I don't want lyrics, I don't want music videos or video podcasts, just leave me to listen in peace 😛

I love that my kids enjoy music — that’s what Spotify should be about.
But instead of exploring songs from all over the world, they end up clicking through endless, silly streamer videos on Spotify.

Why is there no simple option to turn this off?

Just a setting like: “Disable videos for this user”

That’s all it takes. It’s such a basic parental control feature, and it would make Spotify so much better for families who just want their kids to focus on the music.

(Spotify Kids isn’t even available in the Netherlands — and from what I’ve read, it’s not really a solid alternative anyway.)

Come on, Spotify. Please fix this.
