Bring the ability to preview songs when adding them to a playlist back, it makes it extremely hard to find new music to add to a playlist cause you no longer know what it sounds like without listening to it separately from the add songs list. The feature made it supremely satisfying to make a new playlist and removing this feature ruins the likeability of the app for both me and many other listeners. It's a extreme mistake and I'd highly recommend to add it back not only for ease of UI but for general expansion of music exploration.

Myself and many other Spotify users were evidently upset last month when Spotify changed their collaborative feature. While some users may prefer the newer option of inviting select people, others of us loved the old feature and are finding this change to negatively impact our Spotify experience. After all - if it's not broken, don't fix it, right? We liked being able to set and forget - allowing whoever may be following or stumbling across our account to add/change our playlists. That's why we had them public! SO instead of removing the feature to collaborate and only allowing us to invite, why not incorporate BOTH features? A "make collaborative" and an "invite collaborators" feature. To satisfy both parties - please bring back the Make Collaborative feature!!!

Please include the user's folder information within the "Public Playlists" tab. I noticed that the "Public Playlists" tab sorts the users playlists accordingly to the users playlists tab. This means that playlists within folders are always grouped together in the "Public Playlists" tab. Because of this, I propose that each grouping of playlists in the P.P. tab includes a header which is the name of the folder. (See the attachment below). And playlists outside of folders would show up normally without any header. Please make this happen, the browsability of this panel would become so much better!

Suggesting playlists, especially the tailored ones, is great and it allows me, same as many others to get to know new artists. When listening playlists at home, for any new item I like I've the time to check new artists and listen more from them. Unfortunately experience is different when enjoying Spotify playlists while doing sports or driving my car. I might listen the song of my life but I can't easily get to know the artist because I can't focus on the phone or stop what I'm doing. Having the option to have an automated voice that before or after each item sayinh the name of the artist/song would be extremely cool for me, and I guess for many other listeners without a good memory like me 🙂 Thanks in advance for the attention!

I find that some days my daily mix is great and others it's just okay. I would like to be able to rate my daily mixes so that these ratings could be incorporated into the recommender algorithm, to improve the quality of my future mixes.

You can add an extra point to the "..."-menu of any object (album, playlist, artist etc.) which takes the respective songs which are marked as favorites within this object and puts them into a new playlist. For example: I have already marked the songs "Stronger" and "Power" of Kanye West as favorites. I could then click on the "..." which are shown on the artist page of Kanye West and click on the new option "Create playlist of favorite tracks" --> this would create a new playlist called "Favorites - Kanye West" which include the previously mentioned songs "Stronger" and "Power" (because they were the only songs I marked as favorites). This could also work within playlists, albums etc.

I often use 'play all' for a folder with some playlists. But I can't see from which playlist the actual song is from, so some kind of highlight for the playlist containing the current song would be quite useful.

Having to drag around songs in a big playlist to change the order is very cumbersome and time consuming. It would be great if we could simply right click a track and have the option to enter the "playlist position" to easily put the song on a specific position in the playlist.

I've just started a trial of Qobuz - they offer the standard 320kbps as well as lossless FLAC streaming (and high res downloads if you purchase them) the sound quality is noticeably better and on classical it's just wonderful to get all that resolution through your hi-fi or headphones! The catalogue has a way to go to get to Spotify's level, but they are getting there. The iPad app isn't' too bad (the desktop app is in need of an upgrade but I hear they are putting all their efforts into mobile apps right now).
So - lossless streaming - if Qobuz can do it then so can Spotify, they must have the same source - and obviously if you are asking £20 a month then those record labels and distributors take enough notice to make the high res tracks available for streaming. What this all means is soon, very soon, we will get lossless streaming and closely followed by high res downloads - but if Spotify aren't careful it will be Apple who get there first with an audiophile premium offering, and when they do it will be a much harder market place to make money in!
** please don't lump this suggestion with the main one on lossless downloads, that's a different idea entirely guys!

I would really like the ability to view all of my playlist followers and I am sure I am not the only one. What I am suggesting is a simple system, where you could press on the "# Followers" section of the playlist Window:
I would suggest it would either give you a drop down of all the followers or even better (in my opinion), a redirect to another page with all the followers on it similar to the Following/Followers tab in the Follow page of the client.
Please add your kudos and any comments here!

Previous years you were able to share a link to other people with your Spotify Wrapped playlist. This year, when you click on the link it just takes you to your own Top Songs. Please can this feature be added in to allow sharing and the social side to return.

Allow there to be an option where a queue can be generated to fit a time amount. For example, if a user sets the amount to 2 hours, create a queue with a runtime that roughly fits the amount. After the queue is finished, just stop the music instead of playing radio. If the playlist/album runtime is shorter than the time amount set, just fill in the rest of the time by adding duplicates/replays until it fits the time amount the user wants.

When you use a collaborative playlist (private or public) for a certain event and you do not want to be spammed with songs by a single contributor, because he likes to hear a loooot of "his" music, it would be nice to have a feature, where you can set the maximum songs that a user can add to the playlist (global playlist setting, not for each user). If a user wants to replace one song for another one he should be allowed to do so within the specified limit. This makes sure, that everyone gets to hear his selection within a reasonable timeframe. Further more the playlist should be lockable without having to throw out everyone in order to keep it consistent during or up to the event. For example: When preparing a party, everyone who is invited may contribute to the party playlist and it is locked with the party starting, until everything was played (manual setting for the creator, no automation needed....that would be nice, but overkill for now). Then he reopens the playlist again, also unlocking the limit to give people the choice for further selection of titles for the rest of the night.

When adding multiple playlists to a New Folder and there are duplicate songs in each separate playlist within that folder and I try playing songs from that New Folder, then the duplicate songs show up in the queue when played. Please give us the option to play that New Folder without adding duplicates to the queue. See the images below for the issue. I have provided a temporary workaround solution with this post, but it is a hassle to create when combining many playlists into one folder.

This kind of thing happens really often - I find a song I like, but its album isn't on Spotify yet, so I have to add it from some 'Best Of' compilation. The thing is, the song's official album gets added to Spotify in the meantime, but if I want to add it from there, I have to delete the song that's already in the playlist, deleting the original 'Date added'. I don't like having to reset these dates, because I often sort playlists by date added, and I like having songs from their official albums instead of some crappy compilations. So, here's the idea. Just add the option under the three dots next to a song to replace the song with another variation of it. The songs could be recognized as the same if their titles are the same/similar and the artist's names are the same. This could also come in handy if a song is unavailable/greyed out, but another version of it is available. Cheers!

I am so grateful that we finally can download Spotify playlists on the Apple Watch, but I was pretty disappointed to find out that there is a 50 song limit per playlist. I’m not sure if that is on purpose for formatting or storage concerns, but I would love to see that limit removed so that I can download full playlists to my Watch and listen to all my music without having to have my phone on me.

Let us choose an accent color for our playlists, and not from a preset color palette chosen by the app, but with any color we can think of. This would be for aesthetic purposes only, yet I think that many users wish they could have that option. (At least let us use that option on the desktop and let the color show on the phone, tv, desktop, etc.) The problem is that when you add a custom thumbnail to your playlist, Spotify sets an automatic accent color to it. Sometimes you can get lucky and have it match your thumbnail, sometimes it just looks dull. Also, it always picks a different color for the phone and desktop apps. So it would be pretty nice if you just let us do that job instead of the AI. We would have a consistent color for all apps and we would all enjoy more aesthetic playlists! Thanks<3

Currently, downloaded podcasts are automatically added to the "your episodes" playlist (whether you want them there or not). They are not automatically removed when you un-download them. Additionally, is a pain to remove each episode from the playlist, you have to perform at least three steps. This feature, as it currently exists, serves little more purpose than to be a duplicate of the "downloads" tab. In sum, users should be able to choose whether or not they utilize the "your episodes" playlist feature and have greater control over how it functions.

Background Earlier this year with Spotify's UI change, user-generated playlists (UGP) were removed from artist profiles, before subsequently returning on desktop (with some expansion to now show 50 playlists when pressing 'See All'). Despite the initial scare, it was nice to see that Discovered On made *some* come-back, but it needs more. It's currently unfair that Spotify only shows its own playlists on Mobile, completely removing visibility on UGP. In fact, with Spotify's recent streamlining of Web/Mobile/Desktop App UIs to all look and function similarly, this new addition shouldn't be difficult at all. If anything, I imagine Spotify is actively omitting Discovered On from artist profiles on mobile now (You can see this in the A/B difference attached, between the Mobile & Narrow Desktop App window view, which are practically the same, except the omission of Discovered On). I'm requesting for Discovered On to show on Mobile as it does on Desktop, so that: - Listeners can tap into the huge world of user-curated playlists to find similar artists. - Independent curators (labels, bloggers, influencers, etc.) can still have visibility for their playlists, and not drown in an overly monopolized Spotify environment. - Artists can also obviously enjoy getting more discovery and visibility through a largely available yet untapped resource, especially artists who DEPEND on third party curators, i.e. those not picked up by Spotify algorithms and editorials which are arguably most artists on the platform. How To Achieve This: It's very simple. Below the Featuring, Fans Also Like, Appears On & Artist Playlists widget/tabs, just show Discovered On tab as is shown on Desktop. Simple. Thank you!
