Hey @sekretaz

 

Thanks for the screen recording! So, it seems like this is only happening with one playlist. This could be happening because the playlist you're trying to edit has been reported, which automatically removes its name, cover photo and description.


To solve this you can go ahead, copy the songs in the list and make a new one. After that you can name it as you like.
Make sure your picture or title doesn’t violate any copyright, trademark, or personal image rights. You can find more information on those guidelines here.

 

Hope this helps!

Hey @sekretaz, thanks for reaching out to the Community!

Can you try a clean reinstall of the app and then try to rename your playlist again following these steps? If that doesn’t work, can you let me know if the same thing happens on another device (like another mobile device, or a computer), if possible?

 

Keep me posted!

I tried reinstalling the application and logging in again, but it still didn't work.

this happens everywhere in the app on PC in the browser and on the phone

Hey @sekretaz,

 

Thanks for trying those steps. You can change the name and the cover image of a playlist anytime you want if it follows the guidelines. You can check out this article to ensure you’re following the right steps. 

 

Can you also send me a screen recording of what you’re seeing? Make sure to hide sensitive info when posting to the Community.

 

I’ll take a closer look!

Okay, I noticed that I can only not change the name of one playlist, and I think I know what the reason is. The reason is that I named this playlist with an invisible character, and that name has remained all along.
