Having a home screen widget for Android would be really nice. All other media players have one on Android so it'd be great to see that in Spotify too. It'd make things so much easier to just be able control to Spotify from your home screen instead of swiping down for the notification bar or opening the app. It's really simple functionality so please can you add it. ...

I think we all learned something today. Spotify will not bring back old Features on new releases. What if there is a different way? One that costs nothing and is already developed?   Same story happend to Blizzard with WOW, they had a beautiful Game and destroyed it with too many new feauters. As they keep loosing customers they decided to bring back the old client beside the new one, so every customer can decide if he wants to stay with the classic or the new Game.   Bring an old Spotify Version as an additional App to the Store, it costs u nothing because its already developed. But it gives us everything.   Thanks   ... View more

I really like the addition of being able to sort Liked Songs by Artist and Album, thank you for that.   However, with that addition, it's been made unnecessarily more difficult to search for specific songs in the Liked Songs list where now you need to push the top right 3 dots first and then "Find in Liked Songs".   Please bring back being able to simply swipe down, get the search bar, and type in the song details. ...

Hello! The android Spotify icon recently got updated with a black border. For anyone with a dark or black wallpaper, the icon now appears to be smaller than all the other icons on the phone because the black blends in the the backdrops, making it look really off-putting and out of place.   Looked a lot nicer when the logo took up the whole space! Not sure if iPhone users would have the same issue, but it would make sense they do.   HopwHopef this can be easily adjusted! ... View more

It would appear that the newest update to mobile versions of Spotify have moved the Search/Filter options for playlist into a small context menu which is a few clicks and a scroll away.   I don't see the need for this - I (and I'm sure many others) use the search funtion and the sort functions all the time on mobile devices. So the fact that they have been moved elsewhere is really inconvenient - there was no need to do this.   Do other people agree that the search and sort functions need to be moved back to the playlist main screen? ...

Currently, all Free users and Premium iOS users have the ability to block any artist just by going to their pages and tapping "Don't play this artist".   This is not possible for Premium users who use Android devices, and I've seen some complaints about it in the Community.   So it would be great to make it available to all users regardless of the platform. ...

It has been asked for years and you seem to never pay attention to it. Can you please give us an option to disable the cover art wallpaper in the lock screen?   The wallpapers look low quality and ugly. I also think they are not necessary, since we have the album cover in the notification already.   Plase, think about this feature. You'd make your users very happy. If a lot of music players can have this option, I don't see why you can't.   Thanks.       ... View more

So, when you have the Spotify all on mobile, you can't see what music you're listening to on the discord app, even though it's connected and the settings are on.  This feature is for Free/Premium and it works for PC, but doesn't work in spotify mobile because of its different API.   After talking to an agent, I found out this feature hasn't be added, but I'm sure a lot of people would love it, who use both discord and Spotify on mobile.    I request the developers to add this feature to mobile, too, so that our friends can too see what music we're listening when we're using the Spotify mobile app.      Device- Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge on android 8.0 Oreo   Attached are the screenshots of the music not showing up on the discord app.                 ...

Firstly let me say I have been using Spotify since it launched here in the US and have seen a lot of great improvements over the years. Great job! I am a music listener who likes to let the current track play out before starting a new one. I love what you have done on the iOS side with swipe to queue. Can you show Android some love and put this story in your backlog? :) Thanks for listening! ... View more

Hi, I would like to request optimizing the Spotify app for 18:9 screens, such as on the Pixel 2 XL or OnePlus 6. Please also understand that not all Android builds are alike, stock Android doesn't have any option to force optimization like the S9 does. Even though phones with this ratio our out for over a year now, Spotify still didn't update their app to support this, even though Apple Music (Yes yes, Apple, the iOS developer) supports it for a while now and even though Spotify updated the app for the iPhone X within a month. The optimizing would make the black bar dissapear, which is even more apparent on Android P when entering the multi tasking or lowering the notification shade (screenshots attached). Also, coloring the navbar a bot would be nice if you'll anyway bring the bottom bar closer to the navbar. Thanks. P.S. The fix is extremely easy for your devs: Insert this line in   the <application> tag of the  app  manifest. <meta-data android:name="android.max_aspect" android:value="2:1" />   ... View more

As of 1/8/2018 the spotify widget is currently on a 1x4 size. Many newer phones have the ability to hold more icon columns (more than 4) therefore the spotify player looks poorly made and ill fitting.    I know that google play, and samsung play provide the ability to resize the widget to match the width/# of icon columns you have on your screen.   Can it be possible to allow the widget to be resizeable like other music playing competitor apps?    It feels weird that spotify doesn't take this idea into account. It has been submitted many times on the forum:    https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Android-Music-Still-no-resizable-widget/idi-p/1453390   https://community.spotify.com/t5/Live-Ideas/Android-Widget-Scale-for-bigger-phone/idi-p/1450583   https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Android-Resizable-Widget/idi-p/4158889   https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Android-Other-Widget-Size-Adjustment/idi-p/1280262   https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Android-Other-Spotify-widget-resizing-on-Android/idi-p/1808261   https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Android-Widget-should-be-resizable/idi-p/1151879   https://community.spotify.com/t5/Android/Spotify-Widget/m-p/760295   I assume it isn't that much work to do compared to some of the other ideas I have seen you guys implement.

USB DAC/amps are less impressive on Android Spotify because the standard Android driver is up-sampling. The Dragonfly Red runs at 44.1kHz with Spotify on my PC but on Android it up-samples to 96kHz causing glitching. Other DACs have similar issues. The proposal is for Spotify to access USB DACs directly, bypassing the Android driver.   Audiophile music players already take this approach, e.g. USB Audio Player PRO (UAPP) and Neutron. Tidal works with UAPP.   This idea is a version of "Support USB Audio through the USB Audio Player PRO driver" without the 3rd party partnership. It was written in response to @meahtenoha's review. Both ideas originate from the USB audio out OTG support thread.   External USB headphone DAC/amps for Android phones are becoming a thing. What Hi-Fi has a Best DACs page that mainly lists portable audiophile kit. I would prefer to carry a phone and a DAC rather than a phone and a portable music player because it is more fun to have access to the whole Spotify catalogue. ... View more

Android applications seem to support some form of integration with the Android OS to identify as a music player.   Going to: Settings > Apps > *Gear Icon* > *Default Section* > Music app:   I'm able to select which application on my phone should be the default app for music, and the phone presents me with a list of choices: Google Play Music MX Player Pro ES File Explorer Pro IPTV Pro. As you can see, Spotify is not on the list. If those apps can make it to the list, so can Spotify. Would be really great to see official integration with Android in this regard, especially because such integration helps a lot when connecting the phone with the car!   Screenshot attached.   Phone: OnePlus 5 OS: Oxygen OS 4.5.2 / Android 7.1.1 OS Build: ONEPLUS A5000_23_170624   Thanks   (P.S.

I would like to have a better User Experience on the Android app. By example: On Deezer, while you are listening one song, you can do some gestures (swipe up, swipe bottom, etc.) to "minimize", "see the queue", "visit song's artist" and many others. It results so usefull because you have to do less work to acommplish some tasks and you can take advantage of those amazing functionalities provided by the OS. Thanks a lot in advance. Regards. ...
