[iOS] Like or dislike a song from the Lock Screen discover weekly playlist

When I'm playing the discover weekly playlist I could quickly like or dislike a song from the lock screen on my iPhone or iPad. This feature has been removed and replaced with a previous song button.

 

Now I have to unlock my phone, open Spotify and select the heart icon to like a song or select the three dots at the top of the now playing screen and select 'Hide song'

 

It was much more convenient to have the like or dislike option on the Lock Screen.

 

Please see screenshots below:

 

Before the update the like / dislike buttons on iPhone Lock Screen👇

After the update, the like / dislike option has been removed from the iPhone lock screen and been replaced with a previous song button 👇

I agree, a Like or Dislike option would

be very nice to have in as many screens as possible.

This needs to be on ALL of your clients not just iOS...

This would make the listening experience much easier for all listeners. As sometimes you are just listening to a song and want to quickly like it or are unable to open the Spotify App for reasons such as they are driving, at work, etc.

This is a great idea! Very functional.

Your Idea has been submitted a while ago, and unfortunately hasn't gathered enough votes (50 votes within 3 months) to keep it active in the Exchange. Be sure to know that this does not mean that your Idea has been declined by Spotify.

Don't worry, your Idea will still be able to gain more votes, and may get a Live Idea status if it receives enough of them.

this is really **bleep** to click dislike/like button while driving. It should be in many places like lock screen/at top of playing song/in google maps plugin(in android auto/carplay and without)

You can do this on android on my old huawei…used to have all the back,pause/play, forward buttons AND dislike and heart a song…why can’t you do this on iPhone as well??
