Bring back the heart button!

It's SUPER frustrating, we can't see which songs we liked in our own playlists, Bring back the heart button PLEASE, the new way doesn't work AT ALL

Agreed! Also being able to add songs to a playlist more than once should be brought back as well!!

The ability to see which songs you've previously liked was featured with he heart-button. The plus-button may have some convenience adding songs to (multiple) playlists (including the liked-one), but I made much use of the now deleted function. Now I have to click every song on the plus symbol to see if (and where) it's stored in my playlist(s).

I would like someone from Spotify to comment about this feature. I've noticed that is on top of the list demanded features. So, please don't keep us waiting to long for a solution. Hope you'll understand. Bye 🙂

YES! This p*sses me off so much. WHICH ONES ARE MY FAVORITES? I'm all for adding new features, but this reeks of enshittification. Many, myself included, hopped from Google Music to Spotify a decade ago because it was the more user-friendly choice. Maybe something more user-friendly will come along and it'll happen again.

 

Thankfully, the snap client hasn't been updated with this "feature" yet so my desktop is safe.

Unfortunately it is unlikely they will bring the button back. This surely must have been planned a long ago and it must rely on a a/b testing or maybe algorithms strategies so they can privilege commercial interests of big record companies.. 

 

Shuffling is good example, it always bring songs that you are not very interested.. at this rate in the future maybe we won’t be able to chose what songs we want to listen. Algorithms will do it.. like in the old times back when the radios used to chose what we listen or not. In the future chosing a song could be only upon payment.. Amazon already does that with the movies! And sadly the great majority doesn’t care, they buy!

This change really bothers me. Usually I'm fine with adapting to new things but removing that heart-icon is an extremely big step backwards for my Spotify usage. With this, the whole "Favorite songs" playlist/functionality makes absolutely no sense anymore. Please bring it back or add some kind of other indication to highlight songs that are better than others.

 

Edit: Talking about mobile (iOS). On desktop we luckily still got that.

taking away the heart button was THE WORST update spotify has ever released. the heart was a simple easy and effective sorting method for liked songs, it made it very clear what songs were liked and what songs weren't. the new update makes it difficult to tell what's liked and overall makes liking songs harder.

removing the heart is THE WORST update spotify has released. the heart was very easy and simple, it made it very clear what songs were liked and what songs weren't. the new update makes liking songs more difficult and less meaningful . PLEASE bring back the heart !

There have several strange feature updates in the past few years.

I don't understand this constant need for change.I'm frustrated because I can't go to Album and like the whole album like I used to with a heart button. I can't like all songs like I used to. Please change it back and stop **bleep**ing with a good thing.

Please, please, please bring back the heart indicator. It's so frustrating not being able see, at a glance, which songs are already in our liked list.

 

I have an eternal "to listen to" playlist of new music, and as I listen if I enjoy the song, i'll like it and move it to some other playlist.

 

Now I can't see which songs i've already liked at a glance. So I have to keep clicking on that check icon, which is a total waste of time if when I've already liked the song.

 

It is useful being able to add a song to multiple playlists in one go, but we really need that heart indicator back!
