My Question or Issue

 Hi,

Am I missing something or is there no way to speed up playback of podcasts in the webplayer? I can do it just ifne in the mobile app, which is great, but can't see an option for it in PC browser.

Thanks,

[Nico]

Hey @Sploofington! Welcome to the Spotify Community. ^^

What do you mean with speeding up the playback?

Do you mean the 15 second jumps?

They're working fine for me in the web player. ^^

Peace

No, that is just skipping? I mean changing the speed as per the title. On mobile app I can change speed to x1.2, x1.5 etc, but cannot find this function on the webplayer.

Thanks

@Sploofington

Unfortunately this isn't possible right now on the web player. -.-

Hopefully it will get added soon. ^^

Peace

Could you please implement a function to increase/decrease the playback speed of everything (no matter if music or podcast or anything else) on any kind of device or the web player?

Its absolute standard (e.g. youtube).

Thanks

So here we are, 4 years and a half after the initial request was made, and it still isn't there.

This is beyond pathetic.

It's even on the phone app already. How many developers do you have working over there? None?
