Hey! Welcome to the community 🙂

 

Just open the playlist, open up the options (three dots at the top) and you'll be able to edit your playlist. Remove songs by pressing the red symbol next to them.

 I have the same problem as Daza, but I'm confused. What three dots at the top? I don't see them.

But what if your listening on shuffle play to a song that you don't like anymore, do I have to go to the playlist and search through all my music to find the one song I want to delete?

Hey Rob @robertas96 Welcome to the Spotify Community.

You can go the playlist on your iPhone and pull/scroll up from the top of the playlist to reveal the hidden filter bar above and remove the tracks off the playlist.

I have the same problem. Pulling down the menu with the 3 dots on the right doesnt give me an edit option. I only have , Remove Download, Go to playlist radio, Share, Stop following.

 

  1. I was going to agee with the claim by 'Neilpt' who says there is no option to edit the playlist or remove a song. The I dragged the menu down and found the 'Remove' option at the top. This is what we see (see attchd).image.png

Back to the drawing board, as they say... This time I have not found an option to edit my playlist or 'Remove' the song I no longer want. (See new screenshot)

I'd love to know what I'm doing differently and get this slightly different list of options.. Very frustrating..

It's problematic if you have a lot of songs in the playlist.

Is there a function to delete current song played?

Edit doesnt come up on my android phone.  There is no Edit on my list. List is:

Download

Rename

Go to playlist Radio

Share

Make Collaborative

Make Secret

I don't have that option. There is no 'edit' command.  It's Android - does that make a difference?   

After searching for half an hour, I found that you need to click into your playlist, then in the top right, click the three dots, then you will find edit. After clicking that, you can do the rest from there.
