It appears the improved functionality in the desktop app that differentiated it from the webplayer has been removed in the current version.   For playlists that have lots of music, it is very useful to be able to sort those playlists.   We look forward to this feature being restored. ... View more

hi all, here's my problem: i'm listening to my playlist (that i've made) and i realize i hate the song im currently listening to. so i tab out of my game and go to my playlist to remove it. simple, no? no. with my playlist being 150 songs and growing it is a hassle to have to scroll down and try and find the song, especially with my low spec computer. what i suggest is to add a "remove from playlist" function when you right the song name in the bottom left of the app, similar to the "like song" and "add to playlist". i have attached a picture of what i think it might look like ...

Not generally one to post feedback but this seems like a UX/UI error that should be addressed.   When I open an album and select "..." next to any song on that album, the first few options include "Hide Song" and "Remove From This Playlist" if that song is within a playlist. I recommend moving those down a few options to prevent users from inadvertently deleting or hiding a song they actually intended to share or add to a playlist.   I made this error and had to scour the internet using only my memory of the album art and the first word of the song title (which was in Portuguese) to recover a song I accidentally removed from a playlist.  ...

I would love a feature where you could shuffle 2 or more playlists together without permanently combining them. The only similar thing I can think of is the feature on Quizlet where you can study two flashcard sets at the same time, but they remain separate sets when you finish. It would work the same way - the songs in the playlists would completely shuffle for the listening session, but the respective playlists would remain intact.   EDIT: Here is an example of a time when this feature would be useful: "Chill playlist" and "upbeat playlist" are in the same folder, while "bedtime playlist" and "wakeup playlist" are in another folder. But maybe you want to shuffle "chill + bedtime" when you're working, or "wakeup + upbeat" if you're cleaning the house! The possibilities are endless, which is why I think a feature as described above would be best.   Maybe there is a "Shuffle with..." option when you right click  a playlist, or maybe you can drag and drop one playlist on another one and then it prompts you giving the option to add anymore playlists to the listening session, just shuffle those two, or cancel altogether. ...

Spotify has recently chosen to hide the Numbers of playlist listeners in the "Discovered On" section. This is absolute nonsense: First problem: it was a cool way for emerging artists to find new playlists to be placed in (I have personally reached 17.000 monthly listeners using this method), and we all know that emerging artists that rely on Spotify streams, will bring new public to Spotify, pushing new people to use it. Second problem: playlist curators that actually have active followers, won't be able to show it anymore, this way, playlist curators with nonactive followers will be privileged. This will bring artists not to rely on Playlist curators anymore, making it even harder for new emerging artists to grow in the platform.   This can only create an even bigger gap between small and big artists. Instead of helping people who really spend tons of hours on Spotify to grow, the platform seems to reduce what can be considered a useful tool for this purpose. Let's keep it. ... View more

Sometimes I think of or hear a song and I want to add it to a certain playlist but I’m not sure if it’s already in there, or I just want to know what playlists it’s in. It would be nice to to have a feature where you can check which playlists of yours a song has been added to.  I know that you there’s a notification if it’s a duplicate, but it would be more convenient if the song is in multiple playlists to just see all of them at once rather than getting that notification one by one for all of them, if that make sense. ...

Hi, new to the community, so if not posting my idea correctly, please tell me how to improve it. So this is more like a bug than an idea, but basically what happened is that after updating the app on Windows 10, the listening queue and history were completely erased. I don't think this happened before, but maybe I was not using the queue between updates before. Either way, this feels like a bug. So the idea is to maintain the listening queue and history, even if you update the app. As far as I know, these are synced to server anyway, so it shouldn't be that difficult to maintain. Thanks! ...

Let my collab playlists show on my profile to randoms! I want random people to follow the playlist that I made with my friends without them editing it. Just add author permissions. In fact, it encourages people to interact with Spotify more! This is such a simple idea that would put Spotify as a clear favorite over apple music that I don't know why it hasn't been taken on. I truly don't see any downsides to this.  I wish this would be addressed as to why it's not a thing rather than being linked to elsewhere to show me how many people have supported it in the past (which has been a lot).  ...

W henever someone reports a playlist - the title and cover art are removed immediately. This is often abused to hurt record labels and playlist curators. After contacting support - the account of someone who abused this system gets taken down. This person then creates another email and free Spotify account and repeats the process.    There is a simple solution to the problem - enable reporting feature only after 10 hours of music/podcasts were streamed using the account. It won't change the experience for a normal user but makes copyright abuse impractical. It's cheap and easy to implement and would stop 95% of false claims.   Thank you for your consideration.  ...

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? ...

Please note: This idea only applies to Spotify client version 0.8.8+   I will admit this is partly my idea, but it has also been pointed out many times on the "Horrible Update" summarized nicely by Premify here.   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!

I wish there was a way to physically put playlists into different sections and be able to see the sections on your Spotify page. We all know that we have different kinds of playlists for different purposes. I think it would be great to have a way to group similar playlists together and be able to visually see the groups on your public Spotify page. I made a little mockup as to what I mean, below. ...

There is no reason why Spotify shouldn't have a functionality on at least the desktop app where you can drag one song into as many "selected" playlists as you want and have that song added to all of them at the same time…   Here's a little more info to back up this request:   I'm, for one, the kind of person who obsesses over music, and a huge component of that is the way in which I organize my playlists.   I believe it is probably safe to say that most people wish their music was better organized, but the primary reason why they aren't is simply the amount of time it takes to put together quality playlists. Instead, what most people end up with are a small handful of enormous playlist hundreds, if not thousands, of songs that have no rhyme or reason to why they are in the same playlists.   To avoid this dilemma, I have spent hours and hours sorting through all my favorite songs and making different types of playlists that they may fit into. One thing I learned early on is that a particular song is likely going to fit into multiple playlists, and this is where the problem lies and the primary reason why most people avoid making well thought out playlists all together.   In order to add a song to all the playlists I want, I have to sit at my computer and continuously drag a new song I want put into different playlists into each individual one over and over again which, when organizing dozens or even hundreds of songs, can take an insane amount of unnecessary time. And that is if you happen to be creating and organizing playlists on the desktop app… if you are trying to do this on your phone, you might as well forget about it - it would take you an hour to at 20 different songs to 10 different playlists.   That is why I believe Spotify should add a function (starting on desktop and eventually moving onto mobile like they are likely to do with the "folders" for playlists) in which a single song can be added to multiple playlists at the same time.   Attached is a picture originally posted by a subscriber named anaraee who had requested this a few years ago, but apparently wasn't able to get enough traction them... hopefully this time will be different. ...

I think it would be really great if Spotify could allow GIFs to be uploaded as Spotify Playlist Covers - it would add a nice touch of personality to each playlist and make it pop even more! I really like the animated covers of some Spotify Playlists and it would be really cool if we could do something similar with our playlists   This idea has been submitted a few times before but I genuinely love the idea and think it deserves another shot at voting and I hope it gets enough votes this time! 🙂 ...

Currently, when you add a new song to your playlist, it's automatically added to the bottom of your playlist if it's custom ordered. I have a playlist with over 400 songs that I moved from youtube by using a third party tool. Now when I add a new song I have to move it from the bottom to the top manually, which takes a while, because I have to go thru all 400 songs. I know about the sorting by date added, but when I do it, the songs that I ported are reversed, because the porting tool imported them from the first one to the last. In youtube there is an option called " Add new videos to top of playlist " which you can turn on and off and if you could add the same thing it would be great.  As a developer, I see this as not so hard to implement and it would really help me and a lot of other people for sure. It was suggested a while ago, but the idea was closed and probably forgotten. ... View more

 Hey there! My name is Hasret and I'm from Turkey.     A lot of people -including me- LOVE creating new playlists on Spotify and lots of them do it by specific genres or etc. When we wanted to add a song to our favorite playlists, we cannot be sure if we used it before in another playlist or not. I know it seems like an unnecessary problem but it bothers a lot.     So I think about something. When we click the three dot right above the song screen, there should be an option like "See The Playlists Which The Song Has Been Used/Put"[I'm not good at finding catchy names :)] which shows us where did we put the song or did we put it in any playlists.      This can make the app more useful and adding new things easier I think! ...
