Jump to current song when you open playlists

Solved!

Jump to current song when you open playlists

When you open or go back to the current playlist, it would great if the app automatically 'jumped to' the current song playing or queued, instead of having to scroll through 1,100+ songs, looking for 1 highlighted song to see where you're up to / a few songs previous / songs coming up.

 

Surely that feature wouldn't be too complicated to add in.

 

Please consider it.

 

Thanks,

Jason

still not working, Issue for me on Android 13 tablet, i can't go to the currently playing song in the playlist. Clicking onto album art opens now playing view but i cant jump to the playlist from there

I am a subscriber for many years now, but issues like this make me wonder what am i paying for if essential features break from time to time and then take a year to fix (if ever).

Yordan,

 

it is not fixed. in iOS the TOP of the playlist opens. There is no way in iOS to automatically scroll to the position of the song or resume the playlist at the position of this song. People have already marked this out here. It would be nice to respond.

We are paying customers. 80% of the people having spotify issues surely don't come here to post, so the small amount of people that does this, should be listened to.

A year later and Windows still works if you double click the playlist name but no go on my iPhone.  I can't believe they have not fixed the mobile version after all this time.  I listen on my iPhone way more than when I am on my Windows desktop so I really would like Spotify to make this happen.

I want to be able to click "find song in list", since my liked songs list is long and I play it with shuffle. When a song comes on and I want to find it in the list to see what other songs i liked from that time of my life, there would be good to use a function "find in list", instead of scrolling through hundreds of songs.

Add a button to the playlist page that, once pressed, scrolls down to the current song playing. Save having to manually scroll and potentially miss the song currently playing.

Still broken for me Spotify for macOS (Apple Silicon) 1.2.68.528

 

Workaround

- Click magnifier to "Search in Playlist"

- Type name of song

- Click currently playing song

- Remove search

Still not being solved yet! 😂😂😂

I’m wrong, looks like it had been fixed.

Hey there folks!

 

Thanks for posting on the Community. We just wanted to chime in with a few more details.

 

You can check the track's current place in a playlist on both Android and Desktop. To do this, you only need to open the Now Playing View > click on the playlist title. Keep in mind that you won't be redirected to the current song by clicking the playlist title in Your Library. Check out this reply from @Yordan for more info.

 

It's worth noting that if you're listening while Smart Shuffle is on, and the current track is a suggested song, you'll get directed to the top of the playlist instead.

 

While this feature isn't available on iOS devices, there's already an Idea about this, feel free to have a look there! You can also give it a Vote, should it be something you'd find useful as well. You can read about how Ideas work here.

 

Should you experience a different app behavior, however, you can start a new thread so it can be looked into further.

 

Cheers!
