My Question or Issue

Since last week I have a very frustrating problem with Spotify. When I download a full album from an artist and I want to play that album with Android Auto, the songs are in alphabetical order. I want to have the tracklist in the official order. 

 

I updatet the Spotify app and Android Auto app, but the problem is still there. I know I can go to the album by clicking "last played", but that's not the way it used to be. I want that the tracklist is correct when I start the album. Other people also have this problem? What can I do? Very frustrating because I have a premium account, but it doesn't feel premium 😞 

Hey folks,

 

Thanks for your patience while we looked into this issue.

 

We’re happy to say that this should now be fixed for everyone!

 

If you’re still experiencing this issue, can you make a new thread in the relevant board? We'll get back to you there.

 

Thanks!

Confirmed!

 

Just installed latest Spotify Beta (8.5.23.681) and the Songs of an Album will now be played in the intended order of the Album!

 

Sadly, the List of Albums still has random order. Maybe I will open a new Ticket for that.

I just created a ticket for the randomized order of Albums:

Same issue here and has been there for months.

Just to confirm that in the latest release the song list in albums is orginized in the intended order.

 

The album and playllist lists are still completely random.

The good news is I no longer have this issue. The bad news is I can no longer access Android Auto on my Android 10 phone and therefore I'm now using the standalone Spotify app!

I updated the Android auto app and the Spotify app, and now the album plays
in track order. No more issues with the alphabetical order playback
happening.

The order is now correct when running in online mode, however in offline mode I get "Spotify is currently offline".
