Spotify announced on Wednesday an update to an app designed to give users more control over their listening experiences and recommendations. Refresh Experience introduces some new features that gradually roll out users and premium subscribers to Spotify users and premium subscribers, including helping them create queues, current listening experiences, and playlists.
This change often leans heavily towards algorithmic recommendations and helps balance the apps that suggest music and play by giving the user the power to shape what was played, when and how often.
For premium users, Spotify's queue has been revamped. The new design will make it easier to access controls such as shuffle, smart shuffle, repeat and sleep timers, the company says. Smart shuffle and autoplay can also be switched completely from Spotify settings if necessary.
Additionally, premium subscribers recommend that Spotify play after the queued track. So you can pre-select what will stay in the queue.
Listen to music and tap the refreshed hidden button that makes Spotify's claim, located more intuitively when you come across a song in your playlist that you don't feel like. The button hides tracks in the playlist for all devices. However, the company will soon introduce an even stronger version of “hidden,” launching a new 30-day snooze feature, and temporarily remove tracks from recommendations.
The company is also introducing features that improve the management of playlists on mobile. Add, sort and edit buttons at the top of the playlist to add tracks, change the playlist title, change the cover art, and organize the song sequence.
Listeners in Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa, UK and the US can first filter by genre, then create a playlist using arousal songs and tap on the new option to “turn to playlist.”
