[All Platforms][Playlists] Please restore View as Album List feature

View as Album List was a great feature. Based on comments I have seen on other forums, I am not the only one who thinks so. Please restore this feature. Reasons:1) Images are much easier to see than text. I have reached the age of reading glasses. Before this feature was removed, I could easily find songs / albums in playlists. Now I have to find my glasses beforehand! 2) Images are much more compelling and attractive than text. A picture tells a thousand words etc. The whole look and feel of Spotify is enhanced through the use of album images. Removing them seems like going against good user experience practice. 3) Nostalgia. Although I love Spotify and I firmly believe that subscription is the future of music, I still feel some nostalgia for "possessing" a collection of albums. Displaying album covers reinforces the feeling of having a collection of albums in a playlist. Note that all three arguments apply equally to desktop and iPad versions of Spotify. November 2013: Response to the comments from Spotify...- There is no need for a cmd+G control. All playlists should always display the album cover.- The Collections product was announced almost a year ago but there is no sign of it.- A Collections product that simply displays the thousands of albums that I have ever listened to is not a viable solution in my opinion. I would need multiple collections (i.e.. playlists). May-2014I have created a new idea http://community.spotify.com/t5/Spotify-Ideas/Display-Album-Cover-on-Your-Music-Songs/idi-p/791029 requesting cover art on your music (and playlists). Please give it your kudos. July 2015I note that Apple Music displays album art on playlists on all platforms. 

Again - We shouldn't have to vote about stuff like this. Of course there should be an album list. And it should also be obvious how to enable it, not just with a keyboard command or obscure menu option. Also - please consider an album view in the mobile apps as well. I have a lot of playlists with just albums, and they are a pain in the ass to use on the Iphone / Ipad.

  • [All Platforms][Playlists] Display current playlist with song

    If you are in a playlist(IE not currently saved usually found through discover) there should be a easy way to go back to that playlist without hitting the back button a bunch of times.

    Updated: 2015-07-01Hello!
    On which platform are you on?
    On desktop you can simply click on the album art in the bottom left to get to that playlist.
    On Android and iOS you should be able to click on the top bar in the Now Playing View to get to the playlist.
    Does that solve your request? :)

  • [All Platforms][Playlists] Dynamic playlist formed by two or more playlists

    Hi, I like to organize my favorite songs mainly in playlists of the same genre. However, if I want at some point to listen to songs of both genres A and B, I need to create a new playlist with all the songs from these two genres, and also keep at least two different lists up to date whenever I need to add or remove any songs. I'd like to create a "dynamic" playlist, defined in terms of other playlists (and possibly some custom songs). For example, I'd like to be able to create a new playlist called "Study" which is formed by any the songs at playlists "Classic" and "Games", plus any other songs specifically added to "Study".

  • [All Platforms][Playlists] Feature for normal user to customize playlist cover

    Hello spotfiy commuity!  I saw a post about this a cople of years back, but I feel like its time to revisit the subject.  I have always wanted a feature that enabled me to choose a custom playlist cover photo. This would make my playlist even more personal. I always wonder why this wasn't a feature, I thought that it could be legal issues with the pictures, but just resently spotify released the "Discover weekly" that is absolutely amazing! On the playlist they use your facebook picture as the playlist cover. So it can't be legal issues? One can use anything as a facebook photo (No copy rights needed).  I know this is a feature for records companys or larger playlist and so on. I can understand that its limited to partners, but I don't think it would do any harm to add this feature for regular users aswell?  All I really want is an reason why this isn't a feature for normal users :)

  • [All Platforms][Playlists] Decide who should have the right to add/remove songs on your playlist

    I got a playlist which i share with a couple of friends and everyone can add/remove songs.But i wanna spread this playlist but cant do that because people love to deleted the whole list.The solution to this is to somehow decide who will have the right to change songs.Just a little idea but shouldn't be impossible to do, in worst case i'll just make two different playlists.(Sorry for bad grammar etc.)

  • [All Platforms][Playlists] Option to see popular playlists a song appears on

    I really would love to see the ability to right click on a song and see which public playlists it appears on. After listening to the radio for on of my genres for a couple of days I'm tired of spotify's suggestions and would like to see what other people think as far as what songs are similar to the selected song.

  • [All Platforms][Playlists] Adding multiple songs to 1 or more playlists...

  • [All Platforms][Playlists] Play count and play history for songs to create personal charts

    Hi guys, I switched from iTunes to Spotify about a year ago and I really do like the service. Lately I checked out Apple Music and in comparison Spotify still kicks ass. However, it was incredible to have access to all of my old iTunes playlists again. Why? Because I created playlists with my personal charts, meaning intelligent playlists which sort songs by play count. I would love to see this feature in Spotify. Additionally you could also track when a song has been played, so I could create a playlist which lists my favorite songs from a specific time frame.  Best wishesDominik

    Sup man! I made the switch from iTunes about 3 years ago, but I have never gone back. Especially since I have a $5 / mo deal for Spotify premium for students, so premium is sick to use on the computer and transfer music painlessly to your electronic device. Cool stuff. Also, the algorithms that Spotify employs have unique shuffling programs implemented internally. They get numerous complaints about similar songs/artists playing in close sequence to one another. When this would happen (the original random number generator would obviously play the same artist within 3-4 songs because of pure chance and logistics), so they implemented a different algorithm as a fix. The new algorithm implemented a fix for this complaint (which was considered to be along the lines of the gambler’s fallacy theory… but that’s another long explanations) so that people wouldn’t complain as much. This switch happened within the past year, so people are just starting to notice how the shuffle feature has “improved”. This whole thing brings on the discussion of “what truly is random?” when it comes to the world of random number generators and the gambler’s fallacy. If you want to check out my Spotify playlists, my acct is: chrisheishman and my most popular playlist actually is “acoustic indie mix” with about 400+ songs and 200+ followers. You should check it out! Cheers & good luck with your music journey! Chris

  • [All Platforms][Playlists] Allow different GUI style for user made playlists (hi-light colours)

    When I am browsing the playlist list, I get lost, I find it very hard to pick up a playlist at a glance.
    First the application should show the current user owned playlists in a different color.
    Then it would be cool to have the possibility to specify an highlight/background color for a specific playlist to be able to organize them better.
    For example I prepare a playlist for a trip and I set it in red so that I do not have to search for it every time I want to select it.
    This is like it is today:
    I was thinking at something like OSX does on Mac:
    Another improvement could be then maybe to search for specific colored playlists.

  • [All Platforms][Playlists] Reorganize the order of songs in playlists

    Users should be able to reorganize the order of their songs in their playlists by their own way. The filters are nice, but it would be more useful and cool if we could personalize the order of the songs that we add on the playlists. 

    Updated: 2015-07-09Hi and thanks for your contribution! As  mentioned, this is currently available in Spotify. Let me know if we've misunderstood your suggestion.

  • Viewing Artists / Albums in a playlist

    This is really annoying me;
    When I create and then select a playlist in itunes I can view all the artists and album information as normal.
    But when I select that playlist on my ipod I am just presented with track names.
    Is there a way of changing this so that I can open a playlist and then select an album or artist?
    Cheers in advance.

    No.

  • Make Album List view default for playlists

    I have my library broken up with playlists for each artist and I like to view the contents of each playlist in Album List view.
    iTunes remembers when you switch to this view, but after upgrading to iTunes 10 all playlists are back to list view, and it's a pain in the *** to switch to album view (especially since they've changed the keyboard shortcut).
    Does anyone know a way to set Album List as the default view? Or to switch all playlists to Album view in a group?

    Same problem here.  I like Artist List view the best.  I cannot find a way to set the default view in iTunes 11 and it is making me NUTS!

    If all what you want is to view the data, you can use the Flashback's as of query which would enable you to go back either by SCN or by Timestamp. If you want to restore those rows back in the time( and losing the changes that has happened in that time ), you can use the Flashback Table option. An example of this is given below,
