Hello all,
I'm curious as to why swipe to delete an individual song (swipe left and a delete button appears) was a feature a while ago and then removed (for personal playlists)? It would be super to have that simple and incredibly useful feature back.
I guess if folks want this feature they should vote for it at this 2 year old idea post (seriously...2 years?) so that it gains enough attention.
100 kudos I believe.
Please vote for that.
This feature was removed I'm guessing because too many people accidentally deleted songs.
I know it happened to me a few times. We'll find out the reason why soon enough.
I don't understand how you could accidentally delete a song with that feature. It would take two steps.
1 - swipe left and a delete button appears
2 - tap the delete button
Was it really that easy to do that accidentally?
Hey @scottydo,
Have a look at the following suggestion of our Ideas Exchange. You might be interested in this, as its fighting for your wanted feature: http://community.spotify.com/t5/Spotify-Ideas/Ability-to-Swipe-to-Delete-Individual-Tracks-iOS/idi-p... Please leave you kudos/comments there to support the idea! 🙂
Ohh sorry, shame on me!
When I clicked on the newest post page, it just showed me your second reply and the title so I thought you didn't know about the idea 🙂
The idea-thread was opened 2 years ago, but in the meantime the feature was implemented. Then removed again, probably due to the reason MattSuda has mentioned.
