Apps On Spotify Disappeared

  1. It is possible that the Spotify app didn’t launch correctly and this may have led to an error. To check, simply click on the red ‘x’ on the right side of the window to close Spotify.
  2. Those with the Spotify app can use it to beam music to supported devices on the same Wi-Fi network. That includes nearby laptops, smart speakers, consoles, or Airplay- or Bluetooth-enabled devices.
  3. Log in to your Apps page. Find the app you want to remove and click REMOVE ACCESS. You can grant access to it again at any time. Last updated: 01 June, 2020.
  4. Download this app from Microsoft Store for Windows 10 Mobile, Windows Phone 8.1, Windows Phone 8. See screenshots, read the latest customer reviews, and compare ratings for Spotify.
  5. Android said Spotify app used 1.4GB of data so far that month. With net neutrality dead, throttling cell phone data is now allowed. Seems like forcing Spotify users to use their cell phones data connectivity exclusively will hurt their business. The Tivo Spotify system pretty much only did playlists well. Maybe they will improve it and bring it.
  6. The spotify app has disappeared from my phone. I have tried turning the phone on and off, rebooting the phone, neither has worked. If I go to the app store on the phone and try to download the app it only gives me the option to 'open' it, which does nothing when selected. I have attached a screen shot of what I see in the app store on the phone.

But I'll send one as soon as I see the devices disappear again (probably next time I reboot my computer). I just had that an hour ago and the way to bring the sonos devices back in spotify on my desktop is to open the app on my android phone and view the list of devices from there, then it shows again in the windows application.

Spotify users are turning up the volume — on their complaints.

An update to the music streamer’s premium iOS and Android apps that was intended to “streamline” music and podcast browsing also removed two beloved features that has the service’s more vocal users sounding off.

On June 13, Spotify announced the update to its “Your Library” section, describing it this way: “Everything about the reimagined Library is designed to get you to the content you want faster.” Essentially, Spotify removed its alphabetical scroll bar and ditched the Recently Played tab, replacing them with “Playlists,” “Artists,” and “Albums.” If you wanted to listen to a song you listened to recently but don’t remember its name, it is now very hard to do that on Spotify.

Apps On Spotify Disappeared

Over the past week, the Spotify subreddit has been awash with complaints about the software update. “BRING BACK OLD SPOTIFY,” “New mobile update sucks!,” and “Are you absolutely serious?” are a handful of the top posts that have been voted up to the top of the forum by some of its 122,000 members.

The outrage ranged from commiseration to organization about how to send feedback via official company channels.

The company promised the update would make for a “seamless, personalized experience,” but droves of audiophiles on Reddit have begged to differ.

Spotify did not immediately respond to a request for comment about the update.

1. RIP, “Recently Played”

Apps On Spotify Disappeared Itunes

The ousting of the “Recently Played” was by far the most complained about change. This menu automatically compiled a list of the tunes subscribers have been bumping lately without them having to tap the “Save” button. If users didn’t save their recently played songs before they updated, they now have to manually search for them to get them back.

Multiplecommentsmentioned how the now-deleted menu was the reason they used Spotify, and one redditor even said he switched from Apple Music just because of Recently Played. But user u/Skippin101 perhaps puts it best:

The recently played tab is a huge downgrade. It’s now on the homepage, features far less artists/playlists, isn’t customizable (i.e. you can’t remove an artist or playlist from it or re-arrange it), can’t be used in offline mode, and, worst of all by a country mile, when you click on a recently played artist it takes you to their artist page instead of showing you which songs you’ve saved by that artist.”

The new update seems intended to nudge users to begin using the app’s Playlist feature, a tool that many users aren’t keen on.

2. No Alphabetical Scrolling

Secondly, Spotify removed its alphabetical scrolling feature from every list on the app. Before the update, users could press their fingers on the scroll bars in the Songs, Artists, or Albums menus to quickly jump from letter to letter. That’s incredibly useful for a library with thousands of songs or hundreds of albums, but that’s gone now.

Users now have to manually scroll to the bottom of their Artist list if they want to play a song by ZZ Top. That effectively renders the Songs tab useless or, at the very least, extremely frustrating to use if users have extensive libraries of music.

The change has outright ruined the app for many redditors or made it exponentially more cumbersome to find the one thing Spotify was made for: music.

Sorry, Spotify, but the internet has spoken. This update ain’t it chief.
