I know that there are a lot of idea's posted about this in previous year already...But I really think this would be a great additional feature. I am very active when it comes to sharing music between friends and family and like to do so through playlists.  It has evolved into a 'concept' where i create a playlist every month, create my own artwork for the cover and share them with interested individuals. Now every time when someone is interesting in these playlists I have to share all of these lists piece by piece, ending up in a .txt list I update to be able to share the whole thing at once.    It would empower me as a user to be able to share the complete folder of playlists to my friends and family so they have access to that whole collection.  The solution would be mainly one from development as you would have to add the 'share' button in the right-click menu also on the playlist folder level.    To build on this idea you could go into the possibility of subscribing to a folder of playlists, which would be really cool as well I think.    So sorry for again posting about this idea but I just wanted to give it another go and see where it ends up! :)   ...

With the new Family Mix, it would be nice to select individual songs we don't want included in the Family Mix playlst.  I have a couple songs that, while they don't have explicit lyrics, the content is not age appropriate for my youger kids and I don't want it included in our family playlist. ...

It would be super cool if users could upload GIF playlist covers. I've really been loving the animated covers of Spotify generated playlists and it would neat to be able to personalize some of my own.    This idea has been submitted before (see below), but those ideas are now closed. I think this deserves another chance to get enough votes.  https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Playlists-GIF-Playlist-Covers/idi-p/4436960 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Playlists-Upload-able-GIF-Playlist-Covers/idi-p/4536165   Playlist Covers, GIFs, Upload GIF, Spotify Playlists, Custom Playlist Art, Covers, Playlist, GIF Playlist, GIF Playlist Covers   ...

PLEASE VOTE THIS UP!! Sometimes you want to link a certain song in a playlist and then have it continue to play other songs from that playlist. Unfortunately in Spotify you can only link to a song from an artists page or link the playlist as a whole but then it always starts at the top song. I feel we should be able to link to a song inside the playlist and then have them checkout other great songs on that playlist. This would also help with gaining followers alsince they can check out more content. As a playlist creator who creates multiple playlist featuring up and coming artists this would allows us to promote all songs on the playlist equally versus the top slots getting most of the exposure. PLEASE VOTE THIS UP!! ... View more

Please add the ability to view the track length in iOS. It’s critical to know how long a song is when building precisely timed playlists. You can do this in Apple Music and it might be enough of a reason to switch back if Spotify can’t add this. ... View more

Me and my friend had a great session in the car the other day. We queued and played songs during a quite long ride. Afterwards, I was absolutely sure that I could find the history and save it as a playlist - but I was brutally disappointed. No such feature at all even though I know Spotify has my queue in their vaults. I mentioned this to another friend that had the same experience after her friends went mad at a party and played beatiful music all night long - which she wanted to turn into her memory of the party.   So - please implement a feature that digs up the most recent queue and saves it as a playlist. ...

2 ideas that will help you avoid the situation: "Duplicate song...this song is already in your platlist."   Its very annoying to navigate through the add-song menu only to find out that the song you intend to add is already there, and then you have to go back.   Idea 1: An indicator that tells you if a song already is in one of your playlists.    Idea 2: Information that lets you know which playlists the song is already in. Perhaps accessed by clicking on the indicator mentioned in idea 1 or some other way.   These two ideas, if implemented, help you answer the questions: Is the song already in my playlists ? If so, in which playlist is it located ? ... View more

Also see this discussion on the forum, about how the queueing system is confusing to people that like to listen to full albums at a time. The issue is that "Play album" does not work as expected.   Allow me to copy-paste my conclusion about the current situation from that other topic:   ✔  Spotify has a working "Add to queue" feature. Just click the ... and choose "Add to queue". That always works as expected, both on songs and on albums. However, Spotify has more than just that queue: ✔  Spotify has a working "Play song" feature, and will follow-up with related songs. Spotify likes to keep playing, so it will automatically create a "Next up" list based on the song you started playing, usually beginning with other songs in the same album, and then others by the same artist. But these are just suggestions; your manual queue will take precedence. :cross_mark: Spotify does not have a working "Play album" feature. The confusing thing is of course that there is a Play icon on albums. But when you click it, that doesn't play the album, it just executes "Play song" on the first track of that album. See above for what happens then. Why is that an issue?   Well, suppose you want to play Album A and then Album B. A rather intuitive way to try and get that done is this: Go to Album A and click "Play" Go to Album B and click "Add to queue" That doesn't work. In reality, it will play the first song of Album A, then Album B in its entirety, and then the remainder of Album A. This is not at all what anyone would expect if you execute the above two actions.   Suggested fix: clicking "Play" on an album should: empty the queue fill the queue with the entire album start playing the queue (possibly do something with "Next up" if you like -- we don't mind that, as long as the album we wanted to play is guaranteed to play thanks to being in the queue) ...

This feature was removed and now Spotty auto names playlists to "My Playlist ###," Instead of defaulting to artist name and album title. It's very frustrating! Please vote for this so I can be less sad.  ... View more

This issue is important for any user that has a big playlist, and also like very much a specific artist. Playlist A has 100 songs, including multiple artists and albums. I like a certain artist, which is not taking part in playlist A. Since I like that artist very much, I know 50 of his songs. Now I want to add his songs to playlist A, but if I do - I would have a boring shuffle that raises this artist's songs once every two songs.   This is too much. So I want to add about 5 songs of this artist to playlist A. But now I am missing 45 of his songs that I like.   What I actualy want is to be able to add 5 random songs to playlist A, that would act like allocation - every time playlist-A's shuffle raises one of these 5 songs, it should shuffle one of the 50 songs that the artist have.    The allocated songs (those which are shuffled into another playlist's allocation), should support picking from playlists, artists and albums.    I always use the "liked songs" playlist, which is not a regular playlist. So I would appreciate it a lot if this functionality would be also in this kind of playlist. ... View more

Hi I listen to classical music the most. If the film is the director's art, classical music can be said to be the art of the composer. The ability to filter by composer is a must.   1st. Ability to filter music that I have saved in the playlist to a composer (which will be easier) 2nd. Ability to filter music from all of your sporty bands into composers 1st. Is a feature already provided by Apple Music. Many classical music lovers, including me, are struggling with the transition to Apple Music because of song composer filtering. Let me and many people do not worry any more.   (Below is a screenshot of Apple Music that supports composer filtering for my library only.) ... View more

I use Spotify daily and have a lot of lists, as far as possible in alphabetical order, but I have an idea. It would be good if you could better sort lists, for example with colors, to make it easier to keep organized, easier for the eye to orientate among the lists you create. Right now I have created a track list for each category as a title to divide different lists like this: +++++++ SEVENTIES ++++++ without posting any songs in it. As a mark. But I want to do this smarter. ... View more

Hello,   I've just discovered the daily drive playlist, and I love it for my commute, so I set it up to auto download. The news segments do not auto download, though, so I have to download them manually before I leave, or my playlist will abruptly stop when they come up. I'd love it if the news breaks would download with the rest of the playlist. ... View more

Would be nice to sort + filter 'Tastebreakers' suggestions by genre.    Use case: promoting rap / hip hop mixed with rock / indie, but I only listen to rap when I'm working out.    I'm not going to listen to Tastebreakers because I can't filter by Genre or Mood.  ... View more

I love Spotify, and I also love Android Auto and its ease of use when I'm driving and in the car and commuting around. It makes it very easy to play my favourite songs on my playlists and on my discover weeklys and release radar, also very convenient to ask Google for any song I want played hands free and have it played for me. But the problem I face lately is when I'm freely listening to music, meaning listening to new music selected and chosen by Spotify randomly or listening to my Discover weekly playlists or release radars when driving, or music I haven't curated yet myself, I don't have the ability nor hands free or with button input on car system to select option to add to a selected and chosen playlist of mine. Or alternatively create a new one. It would be great if we could say " Hey Google, add this song to ...............XYZ playlist on Spotify" or Hey Google or Hey Siri create new playlist named ......... XYZ and add this song to it. Or alternatively we could simply just have button input on the car audio system that allows us to select an already created playlist. It would just mean that when you hear those great songs that you really want to hear again and not forget about that you actually do something about it there and then and add it to a playlist before it's long forgotten in the big wonderful world of music and lost for another 5 years until you accidentally hear it again, if you do hear it again and your lucky enough to come across the song again. Because let's face it, not all songs are mainstream and some songs are only in your face and in your ears for that brief time in your life unless you add them to a playlist and make them a part of your life and play them all the time, or hear them on the radio if they are more popular songs of more popular genres. Let's make adding to playlists on the go easier for everyone I reckon. @DJ-MastaJ  ... View more

This is an idea previously posted which captured the essence of how crossfade should work with most songs (Specifically, my idea relates to solution #2 in this post) : https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Customize-crossfade-per-song/idi-p/1465240   In other words the idea is that there's an inherent need for proper transitioning between songs in a playlist. If the user has the ability to customize the crossfade on a 'per song basis' they would necessarily have the ability to control the flow of a playlist.   Here's to creating a richer Spotify experience.   :) ...

It is extremely easy to sort the playlist for example by 'artist' or 'album'. But what I really am missing is the possibility to sort the playlist by 'random'.   The shuffle function works fine in small to medium playlists, but in a large list often the same song passes by. This could be fixed by sorting the playlist by 'random' and play it without the shuffle feature. When hitting 'random' again, the playlist can be randomized any amount of times.   See the attachment for a mockup. ... View more

This is an idea to create a way to "deactivate" songs within a playlist. The songs will still remain in the playlist (perhaps unchecked or slightly faded out on the screen) so that you do not forget about them, but will not be played when you play the playlist. This would allow you to build larger playlists of songs, but then temporarily edit the playback of songs depending on the situation.   I have found that with playlists I have been adding to over the past several years, there are times when I wish to skip playback for some time of certain songs that have been on the playlist for a long time. I don't necessarily want to completely remove these songs, because I know I will want to add them back later, and I also don't want to create a second playlist with all other songs except for these specific songs. A way to temporarily stop the playback of these songs (without me forgetting about the songs) would be a great addition to Spotify! ... View more
