Tell us your "dream feature"

[Nikola]

Hey folks,

We from the Community team have a little game for you. It's called "Tell us your "dream feature". Here's what it's about:

- in this thread you can share a proposition and explain a “dream feature” or enhancement for the Spotify app, desktop or web-player and mockup/example use case.

Let your imagination run free. We would love to hear you ideas!

Disclaimer: this is just for fun. Spotify will not be implementing the ideas.

I'd love to see the Friends Activity feature on the mobile app. This would be a game-changer, allowing users to socialize through music. Back in 2022, Spotify even tested this functionality, generating excellent opinions and speculation on forums like Reddit and X. With the recent announcement of the in-app chat and the high user expectation, this would be a logical and exciting next step for the platform.

I would also love a chat room feature. 

YouTube had this exact feature to watch videos and chat with other people at the same time from 2007-2009 and it was called "YouTube Streams". This was my main way to listen to music on the computer before I eventually joined Spotify. It was open for all to share music and chat. I miss those days... My "The Best Songs On The Planet" stream was often on the front page of the most active chat rooms.

Back in the early days of Spotify, the desktop app had a third party app integration and on the apps page there was an app for music chat rooms called Soundrop.

Spotify Hi-Fi & Lossless. I can clearly hear the difference with other streaming platforms like Qobuz.

lossless! promised since years

I’ve been a loyal Spotify user for years, but I’m really disappointed that the promised lossless audio still hasn’t arrived. Other streaming services have been offering it for a long time, and it feels like Spotify is falling behind. I really hope they finally deliver what they announced years ago.

Yeah, I'm super excited about that one to be honest. Care to connect? Let’s share our favorite tracks and chat on Spotify!

I've been yearning for this since I can remember. I recently found that this particular feature is available in some regions like Africa, I really can't fathom why it's not available to everyone tbh. Meanwhile, if you don't mind we can chat on the app, so we can share playlists sometime. Let’s share our favorite tracks and chat on Spotify!
