Home screen not working

[Maria]

We're seeing reports that some users are unable to see content on their Home screen. This seems to happen both on the mobile app and on desktop.

While some users only see videos on mobile, others only see Recently played on desktop, or no content is being displayed under the Music tab.

To add insult to injury, they don't work in landscape mode.

I'm happy to discover new music - that's part of the point of Spotify. But to remove all the existing options and then make it work on phone only is stupid.

The new IOS app update is awful. Pretty much unusable unless you know exactly what song or artist you want. 

Please change it back. This is probably going to force me to cancel my premium and switch to Apple Music or amazon music if not.

My Question or Issue

My homepage in the Spotify app, on all of my devices, is broken. Everything is missing from there except my liked songs and those recommendations. Logging out and back in didn‘t work for me. Is there someone with the same issue or does anyone know how to fix this?

Every playlist, suggestion etc. Everything.

It is awful. It makes me so stressed. How do I disable it?

I am on Android.

Every item on the home screen is constantly animated. It stresses me out.

if we want TikTok-ish reels, we'd use TikTok. remove this ridiculous home page immediately or I'm sure you'll lose a lot of subscribers.

This update is completely horrible. This new UI is not made for people that like to listen to music. Change back asap or you will make people chose other alternatives over Spotify.

I have already started a trial for Youtube Music. If it is not disabled whitin a month, I'll probably jump. I cannot have it like this

I spent my whole Saturday morning trying to remove this home page and it got me really anxious. Whoever designed this and approved this idea should get fired. 

Spotify was the last quiet place after so many apps have gone tiktok (Facebook, instagram, etc.), I've stopped using Facebook for years and instagram gives you options to mute the posts at least. It's been a while I'm considering moving to Apple Music now you just made the move much much easier.
