Spotify skill for Amazon echo devices needs voice command improvements

Spotify skill for Amazon echo devices needs voice command improvements

Hello,
I am writing to you hoping that we can come to a solution with the development team or whomever is responsible for Spotify skill via Amazon echo regarding voice commands when playing music on Amazon echo devices (I'm in the United States of America.

This is important for me as I am totally blind and depend on Amazon echo device for music enjoyment to playback music via Spotify in my home. I am simply wanting Spotify to improve simple voice commands that one would use daily to improve user experience when using the Spotify music subscription.

With Spotify music and Amazon echo device via voice commands I can do simple things like:
Alexa play (song, album, artist) music.
Play (name of playlist) playlist.

to name a few. What I would like you guys to add/improve in regards to voice commands are commands like:

When a song is playing*
Alexa "like this song"
Alexa add this song to my (name of playlist)
Alexa follow this artist.

Alexa create a new music playlist on Spotify.

 

Please review the voice commands that Amazon has for Amazon music subscribers as these voice commands can be incorporated to Spotify skill for Amazon echo users.

Please consider these voice command additions as they're valuable for music listeners and will improve user experience for many individuals. 

 

*If anyone is reading this and agrees that Spotify needs to improve voice commands, comment below.

 

Please let me know if you have any questions.
