Hi Spotify,    I think it would be really neat to connect Fitbit and Spotify. That way, when I am listening to an audiobook, or anything, on Spotify as I'm going to sleep, there will be a note of where I was in my audiobook when I fell asleep. I know Fitbit doesn't track sleep under an hour but it will tell you what time you went to sleep once you sleep for more than an hour. So while it would be most ideal for the audiobook/music to stop playing as soon you fall asleep, the way that Fitbit works, the next best thing would be to note what time in a track I was in so I don't have to search what I last remember hearing of the story.   Also if I could look at my Fitbit to see what song is playing that would be cool.     ...

This has been suggested before, but I want to bring this back to attention.   Every now and then tracks in playlists become unavailable. When they do, they become greyed out in the list, at least unless the option to see unavailable tracks is switched off. (Personally, I prefer seeing these unavailable tracks, so I have a slight idea of what is going on in my compilations).   Often, the tracks that are gone are still available somewhere else, in a different album, or a slightly different version.   It would be very helpful if we could click on a greyed out track, and find the option to search for a different version, or find substitutes, and to replace the track in the same position within playlist. I do understand that Spotify might not wish to focus attention on tracks that have gone, but I believe the users would appreciate the openness and sincerity, and the option to replace the track with some sort of alternative, in place. As suggested before; I want to right click on a track that's become unavailable and have Spotify suggest VIABLE alternatives.  I would also want to switch them transparantly. Today we have to search for an alternative the old way, drag the new find into the playlist, where it appears at the bottom, and then we have to drag it up to where the old track previously lived. Not very convenient. So in short: Spotify should suggest alternatives of the same track when it is gone - or at least facilitate replacing it seamlessly. ... View more

I feel like the maximum amount of songs allowed in one playlist, and subsequently in "Songs" playlist under the new "Collections" feature, should be more than 10,000.   Quite frankly it should be unlimited.    We are paying for a service but limited on how many songs we are able to save? That is absurd to me.   I recently started saving all of my albums into "Collections" and got stuck at about 1/4 of the way through - 10,000 songs has been reached and I am no longer able to save any more albums.   PLEASE INCREASE MAX NUMBER OF SONGS IN COLLECTION FEATURE!!! WHAT IS A COLLECTION IF YOU HAVE TO LIMIT YOUR TASTE??? ... View more

You guys finally listened and implemented a sort-of lyrics system on Android now, Genius' "Behind the Lyrics" (BTL). Now, BTL sometimes shows lyrics, and sometimes shows Genius' explanations for why the lyrics that are being sung that moment are written. So the app can display the lyrics at the proper times already. Genius also already has the full lyrics to most songs in their database. Let us toggle it so it doesn't switch to the explanations. Just the lyrics. I like the explanations, don't get me wrong, but sometimes I want to see what they hear at a specific time, if I can't understand them the explanation won't help me. ... View more

The podcasts menu available in the library section of the phone app should be accessible also in Android Auto ! This idea is not new, has been requested before - and has 130 votes !!

The latest spotify for android update, as well as the newest iOS update, removed the "shuffle all" option for multiple playlists within a folder. I used this feature every day and it's my favorite spotify feature. Please bring it back! ... View more

I understood that Spotify is not yet available for streaming on the Dutch Caribbean islands Aruba, Bonaire and Curacao (and possibly neither on Saba, Statia and Sint Martin). Edit: and South-American located Surinam. Edit 2: Plus Trinidad & Tobago and Barbados.  Edit 3: Plus Jamaica. Many local music artists would like their music to be streamed by the local audience and of course internationally. It would be great if Spotify could be available in this area too.    Benefits include that it will help the musicians make their music better available for people to find nationally and internationally, and that it may also help them acquire some royalty income. For the locals on the islands it means that they can listen to music releases legally, instead of resorting to illegal piracy.  And for Spotify it may mean more (premium) subscribers.   Downsides? NONE :)   Greetings,  F. ... View more

My idea came when I was sick of handing my friends my phone or the aux cable everytime they want to out on a song.Why have a DJ at your house party when you could have your phone hooked up and people around you could put in song request through their spotify on their phones. You could set it to a certain radius or just make a group. You could limit types of music or the amount of times a song or artist can play. That's my idea ... View more

What’s the worst part about meeting someone new with great music taste? You often spend hours trying to find that one artist they don’t listen to, or just songs from a artist you both like. What if you could follow a friend on Spotify, and a playlist was created of artist you both would enjoy that maybe neither of you have heard, or a mix of that, and music you both love to listen to. ...

Hey everybody, thanks for taking the time to view this idea.   My proposal is that Spotify continues to offer the reduced rate to graduates still paying off their student loans. Currently, the monthly rate increases from $5/mo to $10/mo upon graduation. This could be verified just as easily as the current student verification process.   Transitioning into the real world is a challenging time while we are taking on the responsibilities of paying for insurance, moving into our own apartment, covering transportation and sustaining some sort of a social life. Even with scholarships, our youth are graduating with anywhere from $50,000-$200,000 in student loans with a ludicrous interest rate of 10% which they will be paying nearly 50% of their salary every month for 10 years.    I am completely in love with Spotify, the playlists they provide for me and their awesome access to new music. I am impressed with all of the progress the company has made, their user interface and customer service. However this is a time in my life where I have to cut back on non-essential expenses. $5/mo for something I love is understandable but double that is difficult to rationalize. I know that there are thousands of people out there just like me that would genuinely appreciate the student rate after graduation. This would also be tremendous publicity for Spotify, if they show that they empathize with this group of hardworking individuals.   So please, let's come together and make this idea a reality. The first step is for 100 votes on this idea and we will take it higher and higher until we accomplish this goal!     ... View more

I often like to go to an artist's page, and listen to their music. When I do this, I don't have any interest in listening to the remixes on their artist page; I only really want to listen to their original songs. I would like there to be a feature to disable remixes from playing when I am playing songs by a particular artist. ... View more

The new Apple Watch app is a great start, but it is driving me crazy that it does not support the new bigger screens on the Series 4 watch! I have the 44mm size and the app is stuck in a "box" the size of the Series 3 42mm. This makes the user experience significantly worse than any other app on the Watch because I'm missing 30% of the display size. For a brand new app, I would have liked to see support for the newest resolutions at launch. ... View more

Hi everyone,   The new UI is really clean but it still feels exactly the same.  I was checking Behance as I usually do and came across this concept by  Gabrielle Nguyen: https://www.behance.net/gallery/56534635/Spotify-UI-Redesign-Concept   It was nice and clean but the app still misses some animations and cool UI no other app has. Now this one from Clément Goebels has them: https://www.behance.net/gallery/33015995/Spotify-UI-redesign-concept A combination of these 2 concepts would bring to everyone a new feel of Spotify, like a rebirth. With modern UI, still the clean interface and the great music it offers.   Hope you enjoyed it.   Please share your opinion and the ideas that you might have ;)             ... View more

When you listen to a song, wouldn't it be great to see how many people near you are listening to that same song. As example, when you are traveling by train and you listen to a song and you get a notification that one person in the train is also listening to that song. In this way by turning your location on you can become friends with people who have the same music taste. ... View more

Right now last.fm is the only place I can send my listening data ("scrobble"). I'd like to be able to enter different websites to send this data to instead if I so choose.   Last.fm's quality and features has gone downhill in the past several years and I want my music listening data to go to a site I expect to use in the future.   Several alternatives currently include GNU FM (which anyone can host on their own server), libre.fm (powered by GNU FM), and Jamendo. All of these  use the same Scrobbling 2.0 protocol as last.fm so implementing this change in spotify shouldn't be difficult--it would just require letting us choose a URL to send our music data.   There are current workarounds such as modifying your host file, but this won't work with spotify scrobbling for me directly from the spotify servers (which is able to scrobble my spotify listens no matter what device I listen on).   Thanks for your time and your great product! ...

I have an idea that could make using Spotify better for people who put a lot of effort into managing their music libraries (and for everyone else as well).   Collections menu in Your Library   The idea is simple: Being able to create collections or lists of whole albums. Of course you could just add albums to regular playlists but then it just adds the songs separately, which is messy, so you can't easily see which or how many albums are there in the list or checking if there are missing songs.   You can add and remove whole albums to collections, much like songs to playlists   By having album collections we could easily see which albums are added to them and it would make it quicker to select certain albums for downloading by toggling the download button of a collection containing them. We could also re-order the list of albums quicker than re-ordering a simple playlist of consecutive albums broken down to songs.   This would also make it possible to listen to certain albums in a specific or even random order without having to add every album to the queue one by one.   You can download/un-download every album in the collection with one tap, you can also either play the albums in order or shuffle them, or even shuffle all songs within the albums Adding or removing albums from collections ...

Welcome to South Africa, Spotify :)    Your amazing family plan, would be a great + welcome addition here. Being able to easily, and cheaply, sign up my family under 1 account would make billing a breeze.   And shame, my technologically challenged mom and dad (who type in 'google', into their Chrome URL bar so they can search for google, and then google something) wouldn't know where to start in setting up billing and all that... Being able to manage this for them via my account, would be amazing.   Thanks kindly - for your attention to the above, and for coming to SA. ... View more
