I really like the addition of being able to sort Liked Songs by Artist and Album, thank you for that.   However, with that, it's been made unnecessarily more difficult to search for specific songs in Liked Songs by requiring you to push the top right 3 dots 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. ...

This is not a new idea, but I haven't found any practical reply to it, so I think it needs to be repeated. I completely agree with Rennestein (screen capture below), we need to stop seeing irrelevant suggestions because it is annoying. Why can't it be possible to decide what we first see when we open Spotify on any device? (playlists, recently played, artists we're following, etc), and enjoy better our Spotify experience? Please Spotify, let us have the home screen as we'd like. :)) Thank you! ... View more

Hi there,   I think many users get annoyed by those "local" recommendations that are based on the country that is chosen by their payment method. E.g. I'm living in Europe, where English language is not local language, and I'm getting recommendations for the local songs, which I don't like, and I'd prefer English music over that, is there any chance I could change my country of recommendations to US or Canada?    Thanks ...

Hi there, in ancient times in other media players, we had the abilities to sort the artist albums page by a number of different features, liked / disliked songs, album year release, alphabetical, music length, is there any hopes for a feature like that? Or I have to add them all to a playlist and sort it there? Thanks in advance! ... View more

This idea could apply to many languages and locales, but I will use the combination I am familiar with.   A large number of Mandarin songs have Hanzi titles and English titles, where the titles are not literal translations of each other. It appears that this data is in fact stored, as you can see in this example search:     The song 「玫瑰少年」 ("Rose Boy"), the first result, has been indexed for search under its English title, "Womxnly", as well. Please display this official English title! I don't care how it is formatted in the title field, just that it is there.   Conversely, searching for 蔡依林 brings up the same artist entity shown in the above query, which is still named Jolin Tsai, so that must be indexed with both renditions of her name too.   I understand that this data is supplied by record labels and that Spotify cannot proactively ask for it or generate it. I am only asking that the data which does already exist is displayed somehow.   All this could theoretically happen for languages with the same character set, e.g. English and French (don't know about popular music, but there must be film soundtracks where it applies). It may not be common, though.   Note: I am not asking for any sort of auto-translation, or for the gloss of 「玫瑰少年」 up there to be indexed in any way; I'm just clarifying that the original title has a different literal meaning. ...

Please bring back the arrows that allowed us to scroll horizontally within those rows of items. Whether it's similar as, or new releases, the new "See all" forces you to leave the current screen instead of just browsing.   This whole update makes us click and move around way more, I very much dislike it. ...

EPs are labeled as SINGLES. Err... Single means one song. EP means, what, under 6? They are not the same, and it's very confusing when you don't list the discography because I think there are no other songs when it is labeled as a single (then I'm surprised, if I happen to click on the album and not move to the next song/album, that it's actually an EP and there is more to listen to). Google "define EP" and you'll find the standardized labeling that your old desktop app used to adhere to, but you have since abandoned for no apparent reason. Per Wikipedia:   "An extended play record, usually referred to as an EP, is a musical recording  that contains more tracks than a single  but less than an album  or LP record .[1] [2] [3]  Contemporary EPs generally contain four or five tracks"   SINGLE means ONE song. EP means more than one song, less than 6. Album/LP means more than six songs.   This is a standard you are failing to adhere to in your new labeling. Properly label singles as singles, properly label EPs as EP, and properly label albums as albums. ... View more

Hello! Since most ideas seems to be different ways to make our listening more efficient, smooth and comfortable here´s mine. Many computers today already have integrated hotkeys (usually located above the F1-F12 buttons) that allows simple pausing and previous/next functions. However, keyboards/laptop keyboards that doesnt have these buttons would benefit from having an option to show a smaller version on-screen providing the same functions. The toolbar would be shown on top of current windows. (activated by pressing an (editable) hotkey?)  (See image) While the current option works well enough, it force-minimizes the current window and brings up the Spotify window, which we then have to minimize, before returning to previous occupation.   This "toolbar" would probably be most appealing to gamers, since we dont like interruptions 😉 , but also to others who wish to make their music experience as pleasant as possible. Sure, we´re talking about seconds. But these seconds matters. Happy and efficient listening! EDIT: Several years later... 300+ kudos.  Nice! When I wrote toolbar, I realize overlay would better describe what I'm hoping for. Much like how the Task Manager window has an option for "always on top", a very slim Spotify bar with the same propertiy would be great in-game or in any other fullscreen application. Similar, but not the same: Spotify Mini Player Concept by pixelpusher . Kudos for kudos!   ... View more

The New Releases section is in my opinion the worst part of Spotify. All the music featured in that tab/section is more than a month-old. If new music is released every week then it should reflect there right? Apple Music's music recommendation algorithm might be very off but they have a dedicated new releases section that updates every Friday. We, the listeners, miss out on so many new albums because of Spotify refusing to update their section.     ... View more

I have been seeing a lot of people complaining that their Recently Played Artists list is either inaccurate or rarely updated. I am experiencing both of these problems. A function to reset the list would help, but at the very least Spotify could bring back the option to hide it from your profile.   Thanks. ... View more

The new update removed the ability to view all different genre types when on the Home page and looking for music. Now everything is curated to what Spotify thinks I want to listen to, but that heavily limits my ability to explore new music and new genres on my own. Please let me know if there's a way to do this, otherwise, bring it back!! ... View more

I was really pleased when this feature was added, and I am taking all the credit for this as I suggested it myself. I mainly use it for finding my favourite recordings of various pieces of classical music - as there are often hundreds of recordings of the same piece, and I may previously have spent a long time finding one that I really like. This feature allows me to find my favourite versions really quickly - such a shame it isn't an option when using the web version. Thank you so much ... View more

Dear Spotify, please reduce wasted screen real estate in the desktop client. Right now, there is too much wasted space that could have been leveraged.   Here are my main gripes: Legend: 1: I admit that there is not too much you can fill this area with, but you could move the menu bar and the window title there. Now, two "lines" are essentially lost. 2: Fill this area with information and statistics. And for God's sake, why do you not let users add descriptions to their playlists? Partners and labels can, so why can't we? 3: Why did you add this space? I see no logic behind it. And the play button that appears when you hover over a list item is completely unnecessary. Just double click. It's much faster, as you don't have to move the mouse to that tiny little are on the screen. And if people don't know that they can double click to play a song, they should not be using a computer. All major OS' use double clicking for various tasks. 4: There is absolutely no reasy why this space should be there! 5: Reduce the space between people in the activity feed, so that you can see more of them! 6: Reduce the space between list items. It might be easier on the eyes if there is a large amount of line spacing, but it makes for a tedious and inconvenient browsing experience.     My suggestion for the UI:   (Some line spaces are uneven, because I used Photoshop.)   Thanks, Truls Bekk ...

The new desktop UI forces the user to see total play counts on every song. It is now impossible to formulate your own opinion on new music without a bias. We should at least have the option to turn the "total plays" column off.   This is not a minor tweak, it drastically affects how you experience music. ... View more

This has been mentioned quite often on here, but it always seems to get shut down for one reason or another. I am hoping that with all of the attention being placed on feedback right now, this suggestion can finally find its footing and get a full response from the ideas team.   Implementing the ability for an artist to place an upcoming album as a part of their discography before its release will finally give Spotify users the convenience, organization, and discoverability the feature provides. The upcoming album will show the album's tracklist, release date, cover art, currently released songs, and anything else the artist wants to share.   This allows for: REAL album pre-saving, where the upcoming album is placed in Your Library along with its currently released singles, and any singles that get released before the full album release. The pre-release singles to share the same cover art as the unreleased album, if the user chooses. The normal single version & cover art would obviously still be available to those who prefer them. A "Coming Soon" section to be added to Browse, listing albums that are available for pre-saving and allowing for Spotify users to finally be able to keep tabs on the upcoming album releases. Artists to more efficiently promote their upcoming albums alongside their single releases, with each new single release being another opportunity for a user to check out the upcoming album's page. Spotify to simply catch up on a feature that other streaming services have been providing for what feels like an eternity, especially considering how widely used and loved the feature is elsewhere. ...
