Gif in spotify

1. Hi, i am using Spotify for 2 months and recently i noted that for some songs in post of album cover there is somenthing like a gif image. Why? I am using Spotify on iPhone.

Hey @richi97

This is a new feature Spotify is testing.

Spotify tests new features all the time. You can learn more about this here:

How can you give feedback if this annoys the **bleep** out of you?

I usually use Spotify for creating workout sessions but now the controls disappear after a few second making it utterly useless if the song has a gif...

I noticed a cool GIF for Get Lost by Washed Out on Spotify and I loved it. Haven’t seen it for many other songs though. Is there a track list floating around with all these “GIF-songs”?

Please, please let me have the option to turn this off.  Everyone in my family (wife and  kids) hates this animation thing.  I immediately leave songs that have this annoyance on them to go to anything else.  If nothing else, that is a disservice to the artist whose music you are streaming.

I think that this function is amazing.But they can leave the choice for the user who want the old albumcover+controller view;a simple switch button between the two option.

*Agreed* - please add the option to turn off this awful feature.
