"Fans also like" section missing on mobile devices

[Novy]

Hey folks, 

We've received some reports that the "Fans also like" section is missing under Artists' profile pages. The issue seems to be affecting both iOS and Android users.

This is being investigated.

[Novy]

Hey everyone, 

Thanks for your patience while we looked into this. 

We’ve checked with our teams and can confirm that this is currently a test. As you may already know, we’re always testing improvements and new features, so you might see something others don't (or vice versa). 

We appreciate you all taking the time to share your feedback with us and will make sure to pass it on to the right folks. 

If anything else comes up, the Community will be here.

That's a joke. It's clearly a bug and you don't want to fix it, even though it's such an essential feature. I can't belive I'm paying for such a terrible service.

@spotify @novy What is the update on this? Why are you not fixing this or giving us REAL solutions? 

[conereport]

@spotify @novy can any of you tell me the similar artists to Pedropiedra please? I paid for that functionality and if I wont get it from the app I will pester you for every single artist I want to know more of, at least until my sub runs out...

[conereport]

@spotify @novy Similar artists to Haru Nemuri also please!

@spotify @novy can you tell me what fans of the band Alpha Stone also like?

Spotify please FIX THIS!! I want to be able to explore music on my own and not be confined to your algorithms suggestions

FIX. OUR. SUBSCRIPTIONS!!!! It is asinine that you are doing nothing about this. On the verge of giving @spotify the middle finger and never looking back. THIS NEEDS FIXED!!!!!!!!!!

[TrevorFlaps]

Please add this feature back ASAP. I suppose all I can do is add my feedback along with everyone else's and hope you roll this back.

"Fans also like" was imo the best feature for manual playlist curation, listening inspiration, and new music discovery.

Some people don't want to rely on AI and algorithm-based automatically generated playlists. I enjoy the manual process of music discovery and take pride in my manually curated playlists.

The "Related Artists"/"You may also like..." suggestion tab has been removed from artist pages. This was a great way to explore Spotify's catalog and discover new artists. It's a basic feature that has been a part of every music service since the dawn of time. Getting rid of it is a major misstep.

@spotify Please fix this. This feature is integral to my music listening and Spotify experience. It is the main way I explore new artists. Without this feature, I'll have to look at other options for music streaming. This is especially helpful for finding lesser-known artists who have small followings. To take this feature away only serves to hurt these artists who lose an avenue of exposure.

If you are not going to fix this I m not going to renew my subscription

When will this be fixed???

[Hi5rice]

If this is a test it needs to end. 

Your support team is a joke and this is an incredibly unprofessional response to what the issue actually is.

[user-removed]

WHEN WILL THIS BE FIXED?!?!?

[etterstekker]

When will you restore appreciated functionality? This really is annoying.

There was an app update today but it is still missing. 

When will this be fixed???

If you download the app SongShift you can transfer your playlists on Spotify to better music apps. Time to get away from this terrible service.
