Hello! A useful feature for the people that go out running would be an option to view and sort/search  music based on beats per minute (BMP), either in "My Music" or overall in Spotify. I am aware that there are different public Playlists based on bpm, but i'm still feeling a lack of possibility to view/sort music that i personally prefer by bmp. What do you guys think? Thanks! ...

Hi everyone,   I use Spotify when driving and would like to use Car Mode as the small "buttons" make it unsafe to select music on the go. However due to the age / spec of my car, it does not come with a built in Bluetooth connection so I cannot use this potentially handy feature.   Spotify support sent me here to post it to the community so hopefully an option to manually select Car Mode on / off (i.e. irrespective of connection choice) will get enough votes to be a reality.   Alternatively, I find the adjustment of text size in Neutron MP3 Player works fine so possibly this could be an even more useful feature?   Thanks,     Tim ...

With the new Android update and "redesign", I can no longer filter my artists based on what I have downloaded.  I'm on a mobile plan where I pay for the exact amount of data I use and I got Premium so I could save as much data as possible.  Not being able to easily see which music I have downloaded is immensely frustrating.   This functionality still exists in the Playlists tab, so the base functionality still exists in the app.   Please re-add this functionality back to the Artists tab. ...

The android version of Spotify currently doesn't have a setting for how much disk space the cache is allowed to take up, so it just keeps getting larger and larger until the entire drive is full.    A music streaming app should not need several gigabytes of  drive space. Give us the option to cap this - getting real tired of getting told I'm out of disk space and having to manually wipe it. ... View more

When the Spotify app is in focus keep the screen on and prevent it from locking. Just like in PowerAmp, this should be an optional setting.   It's really annoying to have to unlock the phone to skip tracks, or see the name of the current song or artist, especially when driving.   ... View more

There is no option to change the sorting of a Playlist on Android Auto. And it doesn't sync with the choosen sort order in the app. Android Auto defaults to the dumbest sort oder (IMHO) - oldest first. I'm on spotify for like 8 years now. Who wan'ts oldest first.  If there is a technical limitation to implement sort order in Android Auto (or better: Sync it with the app), than at least make "newest first" the default. Please Please Please- ... View more

It would be nice if all spotify premium users on the local network could use spotify connect to stream to a client (i.e pc connected to the speakers)   Now you can stream to the client only if you are logged in with the same account on the other devices. This is not that practical since there are usually more than one spotify user/account in the same household. Especially with the new spotify family being released. ... View more

I would like the phone app to automatically download all songs in my saved albums. And to stop the songs from being downloaded when I unsave albums.   This was possible before the recent change to libraries by setting the songs section of the library to download. This way of managing downloads is well documented on the internet. I particularly liked that I could add or remove albums from the desktop client and the downloaded tracks would be managed on my phone without me having to do anything else.   With the songs section of libraries gone, I now have to manually manage this. I either have to go through all of my saved albums and individually set them to download, which is tedious. Or I have to laboriously manage a downloading playlist of all of the tracks in all of my saved albums, adding to and removing from it as I save and unsave albums. This would be easier if there was still a way to see a complete list of saved album songs, which could be dragged into a playlist as a single action, but that is also no longer possible.   Maybe this could be achieved with an option to have saved albums default to download?   I have to add that the primary reason I have a premium subscription is so I can access all the songs in my library while I'm offline by having them downloaded. This feature has suddenly become much more effort to manage. ... View more

It's very annoying that you cannot control the queue on mobile when the song has a video. You basically have to skip the song and hope the next one doesn't have a video so that you get access to the queue button and can e.g. change the places of songs in the queue.   I have no use for the videos and they likely take a ton of data, so could you give the possibility to disable videos overall? ...

Right now Spotify Connect works like this: I build my queue in the desktop client, listen to it, then want to go out and open my phone. The queue will be transfered to my phone and is gone on the computer. According to this thread: Connect suddenly changes current playlist other users are complaining about this and don't want their queue to be transfered / overwritten with another current playlist. So please implement a feature that lets my queue stay as it is and don't transfer it to a different connected device. ... View more

Why is it now at the bottom below the song that's now playing? It's taking up 1cm of the screen. Now it's harder to have an overview over all the song in Playlists. Please add at least an option to remove it from there! Or at least to only show this bar with a swipe from the bottom up, I think that would be great. I know I have a big device where it doesn't really matter, but there are a lot small devices out there. And the new menu is really annoying to use if you are used to other apps. Please also read the comments below, there are a lot of great ideas :) ... View more

Right now I can mark an episode I listened to (on another podcast player previously) as played, which is great.  I notice that a white box pops up for about 3 seconds noting that I marked it as played, and the text states that I can undo the action to mark it as played.   However once that pop up goes away, it doesn't appear that I can unmark an episode as played.  Admittedly this is only useful if I make a mistake and mark the wrong episode as played, but this has happened and I don't get why the "unmark as played" functionality would only be available for 3-4 seconds as a pop-up.   Would really like to simply be able to touch the where the word "played" is in my screenshot to toggle played/unplayed.   ...

It would be great if the release notes could be put into the "What's New" section on the Google Play store.   I have had a large number of apps pushing updates which have broken the app. As such, I now refuse to update apps unless they provide release notes. The spotify "What's new" section (" We’re always making changes and improvements to Spotify. To make sure you don’t miss a thing, just keep your Updates turned on.") is  so vaugue that it gives no information. It also asks to keep updates turned on but makes no attempt to convince the user to do so. This is highly unlikely to convince anyone in my opinion.   Interestingly, the release notes are available in the equivelant place of the iTunes store. Assuming an automated process is being used to upload the new versions and update the notes, there is very little additional development work involved, especially in comparison to maintaining legacy systems because users refuse to update.   As a final note, searching this site has shown a number of these requests have been closed as duplicates of this issue: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Live-Ideas/All-Platforms-Changelog-after-each-Update-In-App/idi-p/1359400 This is not the case here as I am asking for the release notes in the play store rather than in app. Having them in app would only show the changes AFTER and update. I would like the release notes before I update. ... View more

This idea is marked as "not right now" bacuase it involves a  3rd party . Instead please support the similar idea Support USB Audio directly - bypassing the Android driver.    Background External USB headphone DAC/amps for Android phones are becoming a thing.  The release of the LG G5 and its "Hi-Fi Plus module" is an example that has been widely publicised.  What Hi-Fi has a Best DACs page that mainly lists portable audiophile kit - a few years ago the DACs in What Hi-Fi were all mains powered and large.  I would personally prefer to carry a phone and a DAC rather than a phone and a portable music player mostly because of Spotify.    USB Audio support in Android 5 (Lollypop) is imperfect - see this support thread.   AudioQuest, makers of the Dragonfly, have recommended the USB Audio Player PRO (UAPP) app.  The app uses its own USB Audio Driver to bypass the imperfect Android driver.  On my phone I get glitching and up-sampling in Spotify with the Dragonfly and the Android driver but there are no issues with UAPP.   Proposal Spotify developers could work with the makers of USB Audio Player PRO (UAPP) to support their USB Audio driver in Spotify.  I imagine that UAPP would need to be installed before Spotify would see the driver.  So I imagine UAPP's developers would help with the integration because it would lead to more sales of their app.   Advantages The UAPP developers are clearly experts at linking Android phones to USB audio devices. If there is a concern about protecting the IP in the music then working with the developer of the USB driver could be useful. e.g. to verify that the end point was a supported device. I expect Google will improve the Android drivers in the future but Spotify users, like me, are looking for audiophile sound quality now and on their current devices. Spotify's competitor Tidal is already supported by UAPP.   ... View more

https://developer.android.com/guide/practices/ui_guidelines/icon_design_adaptive.html Dear support, when do you plan to add support for adaptive icons with android 9.0? Currently Android app icons have varying shapes and this results in a really disorganized feel. Some device manufacturers attempted to solve cohesiveness issues of icons by just having a white backdrop with a custom shape and original app icon stamped into the middle, this approach completely ignores any input from developers and their opinion, and finaly, the result is very ugly. Adaptive Icons however enables the app developer to have a lot more control over brand identity and design while maintaining a cohesive feeling. Developer can choose background and a foreground layer, it would be shaped by a mask layer provided by the launcher and that's it. This is how you do it. Your lite version already implements it, I do not understand how a company with such renown has not yet implemented it. Greetings and thank you.   ... View more
