I don't want to see any videos on this app I use Spotify to listen to music and If I want to see videos I use YouTube. I really hate how all apps nowadays are turning into each other and they all try to be the "everything app" and this just makes everything worse. I noticed the same with Netflix for example.

Does anyone know how to turn off the videos?

I can’t even use the app anymore. Won’t load no matter how long I wait. Is this a joke? iPhone 17

EDIT: Reinstall seems to have fixed it for now

Recently lots of YouTubers have been using the video podcast feature to upload their YouTube videos to Spotify. Also podcasts on Spotify now also have comments and chapters, just like on YouTube.

I propose a separate app just for video content to compete with YouTube. Clearly the infrastructure for it is already there, all that’s needed is a new frontend tailored for video, kind of like a reverse YouTube→YouTube Music situation. Not only are many people fed up with having to use Google and US Big Tech in general, many have also been asking for a separate podcasts app for years.

When you click on the album cover it expands the photo by a little and you can move it around. What if you can flip it to see the back cover from vinyl record.

here are my attempts of this idea.

I would really love yall to support this feature.

I just don't get Spotify. I don't get the UI, I don't get the UX, I don't get the suggestions, the latency, the quality, the playlists, the DJ, the shuffle... that god awful shuffle...

...I don't get the options (or lack thereof), I don't get the changes (or lack thereof),

I don't get why their team thinks some of these features will actually help anyone, when clearly all they do is add clutter or make things more confusing. And when the idea is actually good (like radios or daylists), the implementation is shit!

I especially don't get anything about Spotify's idiotic algorithm. Can't you just suggest shit from artists I already like? Who the fuck is underscores, and why do I have to listen to her after every single one of my damn playlists? If I already listened to a song suggestion multiple times and didn't like it or save it, then, i dunno, maybe I don't like it! So stop making me listen to it!!!

I just don't understand anything about this inconsistent, rage-inducing, brain-dead app.

I'm actually convinced the thing is run entirely by AI on the backend. And I don't just mean vibe-coding, but actual, literal AI agents making decisions for Spotify's entire user experience, from strategy to implementation. Otherwise, I can't justify a majority of these choices.

When I go to the artist's page and select an album or single, and then go back, it takes me back to the beginning.

It keeps adding these stupid songs to my liked songs, ive tried resetting my password and unlinked all apps to my spotify account but nothings helped

Just noticed that you can now choose to display whether you’re a paid member for podcasts with paid subscriptions.

I presume this is meant to offer social proof to entice others to also subscribe.

Ask to play a chilled few tracks based on what I like so plays heavy metal 😂😂😂

My playlist just reached 1,000 songs 2 weeks ago. around that time my queue started only playing 10 songs and if i picked a new song from my playlist, those same 10 songs requeued and played again. the queue wouldn't change for days until i listened to music on my web browser, i only have the issue on mobile. Google hasn't helped, AI Hasn't helped (i don't trust it anyways) i really need help because i can't listen to the same 10 songs on repeat anymore.

Just like radios and other many other personalized playlists, the day list now has the filters at the top allowing you to customize. For me this is a great asset because I like to lean heavily toward discovery, but daylist was always so heavily populated with songs that I already know. So I'm happy with this development.

Latest iOS app is a complete disaster. I have never seen Spotify’s app this bad. It’s crashing within seconds and all I see is screen asking to turn on bluetooth searching for devices in my network.

I’m so over the enshittification trend that they’re on and I’m considering switching to alternatives. It’s a shame, Spotify was my first ever paid subscription I think back in 2008. Guess all good things come to an end.

Spotify used to recommend me shows/concerts in the city I live in correctly. Then my #1 listened to artist came to my city and I didn’t hear about it until after it happened. Annoying. Now I’m getting recs only for shows in Salt Lake City when I live in California. I do travel there for work every few months but seriously wtf and I can’t figure out how to change my preferences around that. Has anyone had luck changing their city preferences? Just want good concert recs for the artists I listen to in the city I live in!!

I’ve been trying to play a few playlists/albums, but after one song, Spotify will start suggesting random songs that are in no way similar to the original playlist/album?
I only have free Spotify, but this has never been an issue before. Any idea of how to fix this?

okay, look, this is lowk a really petty complaint, but I love having profile pictures because it helps me express myself... but recently on Spotify—on my mobile device specifically—all profile pictures I use have been SUPER blurry :/

ps: It's really annoying how Google Play Store removed the ability to sort reviews by device, so now I have no other choice than to turn to reddit. Im on a galaxy21 ultra.

I've been using Spotify for years and use a massive playlist of over two thousand songs I am constantly adding to. I've noticed and known for years that the Spotify Shufflewus far from random, but it especially has a tendency to only really select songs from like 5-10% of the playlist, leaving the rest untouched. It has gotten to a point where this is extremely infuriating. Is there anything I can do to improve this? If I need to remake new play lists in random order and play without shuffle on is there some tool I can use for that? I ask this later question because the playlist is so massive. In high school I spent hundreds of hours painstakingly alphabetizing it on a then barely functioned web app before they added the ability to automatically alphabetize, and I simply do not have the time to do it all by hand in a random order since I'm now in college.

Thanks for any information anyone can provide! I really should have come here years ago since this has been something really bothering me for years

Toujours quand je veux y écouter de la music sur " Spotify " sachant que j'ai un peux près 160 titres seuls 10 se répètent . Est ce que vous vous retrouvez face à ce problème ?

I’ve literally done every recommended option posted online and it’s still playing the songs till the very end? I’ve messed with shifting the slider up and down, tried uninstalling, tried logging in and out and turning off my phone, tried turning different options off like gapless playback, Etc. As dumb as it is this was genuinely the only reason I liked Spotify but if this isn’t going to be fixed I’d rather pay for something cheaper. Anyone else going through the same thing? I’ve heard it might have something to do with the apps now running A.I which is ridiculous.

I wasn’t notified that this person started a chat with me. There are songs in the chat that were shared from WhatsApp years ago, and then a song sent at the time of this message request.

A song was sent at the same time, says shared off Spotify.

I found a cool playlist belonging to a friend of a friend that I have never talked to and I want to save it, but I'm wondering if they'll get notified and if they do, will it show the user who started following their playlist?

Tried reinstalling and restarting my phone but nothing works

I've noticed a lot of silence the last few days, after selecting one song somewhere it just quits after that. Autoplay is enabled, but smart shuffle oalt does nothing. Anybody else got this issue?
