Thanks for the "karaoke" feature that allows us to follow the lyrics of the songs. It's great for anyone learning a new language or who needs to find a specific part of a song's lyrics, and especially for deaf people who, different from what is generally expected, also like to enjoy music on Spotify and this feature makes the experience more accessible. However, a similar feature has not yet been implemented in podcasts, which is a shame as there are many creators producing extremely relevant content on the platform, but, for lack of an accessibility feature, this content doesn’t reach as many people as possible and many creators choose to make their content available on platforms that respect the diversity of their audience. By making some updates to the karaoke feature that already exists on the platform we can have a Spotify more accessible to everyone. The ideal is a tool that generates an automatic description of the spoken content, as present in other online platforms, but also allows edits to be made by the content creator itself. And then it should be automatically synchronized with the audio and available in the desktop and mobile version as well. This update will bring more people to Spotify, as many people consume podcast media looking to learn a new language and would like to be able to check words they don't understand well, in addition, browsing the synchronized caption of the content allows you to find which part of a particular episode has the information that the person is looking for. Most importantly, it will highlight the issue of accessibility for people with disabilities and initiate a dialogue with the disabled people community, because deficiencies are part of human diversity and must be respected. ...

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 👇   ...

Spotify was launched in Pakistan since February 2021 making music accessible to Pakistani however due to absence of Pakistan charts, it is impossible to see how well are artists performing in the region.    In view of public interest as well as of BTS fans who want to support their favorite artists by streaming their music, we would like the introduction of regional Spotify charts in Pakistan to see the artists popularity and demand in the region. It would prove helpful to  Pakistani artists for them to see their demand in their hometown, and Pakistani fan to see how their favorite international musicians are doing in their own island.    We hope this idea finds you in great health and is given a thought by Spotify Team.

The full chronological artist discography, with all tracks listed out, has been removed from artist pages. Please add this back, as it was the most efficient way to explore an Artist's discography. Very simple.   Spotify seems to be attempting to bury this issue by closing attempts to bring it up and referring to other versions of this question that have also been closed. This is a new issue for users that are experiencing this change for the first time.   See: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Desktop-Put-all-of-an-artist-s-songs-back-on-their-page/idi-p/5177479   and: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/All-Platforms-Browse-Provide-a-simple-Tracklist-with-all-songs/idi-p/5095596 ...

Slovenia became a recent, last year addition in availability and access to Spotify.  Since almost all European countries have their own TOP 50 chart, we feel we need one too. To see the popularity of different songs in our country + the amount of streams a certain popular song or artist gets. It is also a way to bring more new listeners to the app. I hope you will implement this idea soon. Thank you for your time ... View more

This hasn't always been the case, and I don't know if this has to do with the amount of time I've had my Spotify account or if something about the algorithm has drastically changed - but whenever I start a radio based off a song or artist (which is with the intention to find a NEW artist or NEW music that is related to the song/artist I'm starting the radio off of) it just creates essentially a playlist of music I've been listening to - and not even within the same genre off the song.   I've realized that I haven't found any new artists or any new music, and just continuously listen to the same things over and over again which is quite depressing. The point of the song radio or at least how I use it is to discover new artists that are in the same realm of the artist I'm listening to, and I think you all at Spotify are putting everyone - artist AND listener - at a huge detrimental disadvantage by having it go that way because then there is no discovery for new artists and there is no way for listeners to get into new music without scouring the platform instead of giving good recommendations based off your algorithm. More than anything I want to be able to discover new artists based off song radio, not just hear the same songs I've been listening to. If I wanted to listen to those songs, I would just continue to listen to them. Especially since maybe when I start a song radio off something that is midwest-emo/indie, it'll still play hyperpop/rap in the same playlist which are two completely different genre's and moods. ...

Apple Music has this neat feature that allows users to edit track metadata for all tracks added to the user's library. This is most useful for putting custom artwork for albums or removing (Deluxe) or (Remastered) tags on albums, and removing parentheses in track titles. This feature is also useful for scrobbling with Last.fm, a feature that is not built into Apple Music. Custom artwork for albums is a popular feature on Apple as fans can use their fan-made artwork in screenshots.   Being able to edit track and album metadata on Spotify would be great for people like me who love to micro-manage their music library. ...

Hello everyone!    Ever wondered why everyone is still stuck on same old Shuffle? Whether is shuffling non heard songs properly or is just completely Random, it's still always the same. How about improving this tech a little bit?   This idea was already posted once through this link: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Music-Supreme-Shuffle-among-artists-albums-etc/idc-p/4515541#M148355 However, it didn't get enough kudos per year, but I'm ready to try again and be more engaging with the community that share same expectations from Spotify.   Shuffle+ is all about listening all your favorite songs in the most diverse order you never thought would be possible. "How?" you may ask. Simple. Instead of being a random shuffle, or true shuffle, Shuffle+ would works as a filter check where you can choose what to Shuffle or not.   Example 1: Imagine my standard Favorite playlist from Spotify is already ordered by Album. So every time you play it, it will always play the same songs in the very same order. From album to album, alphabetically. However, I'm feeling like listening to them on a different order, but still want to enjoy whole albums or artists separately instead of shuffling through musical genres. So, you would do this:   [  ] Artist [x] Album [  ] Track [  ] Genre                 Then hit play!   What would this do? Spotify would only Shuffle+ among albums until that artist's albums in your favorite playlist are over, then, it would play tracks in order from the next artist's albums with similar genre, because only album was checked . For this to work they would need to add a new Column on library just for Genres. If not, we would only be able to shuffle among artist, album and tracks, though, with random genres.   Example 2:  [x] Artist [  ] Album [x] Track [  ] Genre    This would make Spotify play a artist's whole tracks in shuffle mode, independent of albums, meaning albums order would be random, but all his songs would be played, no matter what. Then, would go to the next Artist and repeat it to that artist, and so on.   Example 3: [  ] Artist [x] Album [  ] Track [x] Genre    This one would make Spotify Shuffle among Albums with same Genres, don't minding Artist or Track order. Once one Album from one Genre finished, it would play the next Album in the same Genre until all Albums in that playlist that share same genre are played, moving on to the next Genre's Albums, and so on.   Now... How would that look like?    Just like the 'Loop' option alternates among 'Loop All', 'Loop One', and 'Loop Off', the 'Shuffle' button could alternate the same among 'Shuffle', 'Shuffle+', and 'Shuffle Off'. The concept of the "check boxes" to select what would be included in shuffle could be done by touch/holding 'Shuffle' on media player button to open up the 'Shuffle+' menu, where the main/first option would be 'On/Off', then the second would have the "tags/checkboxes" to pick what you want to shuffle. Doing so would save that as you preset for Shuffle+, always using it whenever you're cycling among Shuffle option. This means if the user wants to change how his Shuffle+ shuffles through content, he would have to open that menu.   Hope you all get the idea. If you don't, please say in the comments and I will try to make it clearer.   PS: Not intended for Liked playlist only or Freemium users. Since this is a really complex shuffle method, would only apply to Premium and would apply to all available platforms if possible.   Please! Comment bellow what are your thoughts, what could be improved, if you liked it or not. I will update the idea as we get more opinions about it so we can improve it together. HELP SHARING THE WORD! =D   *Last update: 06/14/2021  -Changelog- -Added 1 extra example with album and genre- -Added how it it would look and deepened on simplified toggle on/off- -Mixed both PSs together- ...

Despite having our own unique music industry with artists from across the island being huge overseas, Jamaica was deprived of this streaming platform for several years. it wasn't until February of 2021 that we finally got access to Spotify alongside other Caribbean/African nations.    Now that we have Spotify (which is great for the visibility of Jamaicans and our artists world-wide), we now feel that we need some charts to truly showcase the popularity of artists and songs within our nation. This includes a Hot Hits chart,  Viral 50, Top Songs Weekly and a Daily Top 50. Jamaican artists deserve to see how popular they are within their own nation and Jamaican fans deserve to see how their favorite international musicians fare in their own island.   We hope that our idea finds the Spotify team well.   The Jamaican ARMY Union ...

Details Just this week at WWDC (June 22, 2020), Apple announced support for third party music services on the HomePod.  I'm requesting that Spotify implement native support for the HomePod such that one or even multiple HomePods will appear in the "Connect to a device" menu on any Apple device WITHOUT having to connect through Airplay.  This will also allow users to ask Siri to play songs from Spotify on their HomePod(s).    Apple is opening up the HomePod, and I know there are many other HomePod users that would love to have native Spotify support on their speaker.    Resources WWDC 2020 video and further resources about this topic: https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2020/10061 More details on this site: https://developer.apple.com/siri/ Form to request music service integration from Apple: https://developer.apple.com/contact/request/sirikit-media-intent-for-homepod   Please upvote this idea to garner attention for it.  Thank you Spotify and the Spotify community.  Let's get this implemented so it's ready for general iOS 14 release this September! ...

This problem has already been addressed in other ideas quite a few times, so I'll make it brief. At the moment, anyone can edit a collaborative playlist. There are numerous ways to solve this, e.g. granting the creator the right to put people on blacklists or whitelists. Another easy fix that might be a separate link for the creator to share only with persons who shoud be able to add and delete song! It would already help a lot 🙂 ... View more
