Adding song multiple times to playlist

[quintenadema]

With one of the latest iOS app updates, the new checkbox style playlist selector when adding a song to a playlist doesn’t allow for a song to be added to a playlist more than once. I like to add songs multiple times to my playlist as I sort by recently added. Is this still possible, or only on desktop from now on? Would be a dealbreaker for me.

What I do to solve this issue is to go to spotify on safari/google and use : use desktop site this will give the ability to add multiple of the same song in one playlist.

Why'd you have to go and make the app garbage now?

This is obviously a feature ppl want and i'm one of 'em! This is somthing spotify should look in to.
One could wonder if developers even care about the community at all?
Please just make this happen, please please...! *cute puppy-eyes* 😉

Man **bleep** I can’t add the same song

Can this be fixed already? It’s caused nothing but constant issues building playlists.

I've recently been making playlists that require the same song multiple times in different places, and I can no longer do so through the mobile app I use Spotify through for most of my musical needs. This was not an issue in prior versions of the mobile app, and I am baffled as to why this has to be an issue now.

I know I’m a year late, but I would imagine it was intentional as it limits artists with higher royalties?

Haha. I do the exact same thing, which is what brought me to this forum. I simply don’t understand the logic of creating less functionality. You’d thing Spotify would have better things to do than nerd its own app.

So annoying not to be able to add same song more than once to a playlist using the app. I often need to add same song for various playlists. @spotify pls sort this out. 

[mmmmmmm4]

Spotify should fix this so people can add the same song twice if they want too...

[Karline]

Please reinstate this feature.

why remove something that was something people used.

[tafkam_llilac]

I know! Or at least give me the option to play a song on repeat.

Basically, you can add multiple songs in the same playlist if you're on desktop. But you can't on mobile I don't know why. Hope this helped

I figured it out. Make a playlist with that single song. Then click on add to other playlist.
