Long touch song preview

Long touch song preview

Howdy.  I used to be able to press and hold a song and get a short playback of it, which allowed me to decide if I liked it and wanted to add it to a playlist

 

Is that feature gone or just a glitch tonight?

Yeh I was wondering the same too. Its gone and it was really  useful feature

seems gone here also, hopefully it's a bug, it's a very useful feature

It's gone by design. I'm utterly dissapointed

If you would like to see Touch Preview come back, you can add your vote to this idea:

Good news!

 

It's not Touch Preview, but it's very similar.

 

In the mobile app, you can now go into a playlist, album, or artist and you will see a little icon next to the play button. Once you tap on it, you can swipe through a feed that plays you quick previews of each song. Give it a try!

 

It is also rolling out now in the desktop app, so you should be seeing it there soon as well.
