Spotify - Music and Podcasts | App Report, Store and Ranking Data

So you cry about Apple taking 30 percent so you charge more than Apple Music but yet you can no longer sign up in the app meaning Apple takes no cut. What’s the excuse for the continued crying and charging more. You also need to change the description in the App Store that shows you can do in app purchases when you can’t. So even with the below issues, I have decided to try Spotify again. I want to say I hate apple music and nothing has or seems to come close to google play music but I decided to try Spotify again even with the many ads just to save money. So listened to it maybe 30 something minutes and had to start work so stopped in the middle of a song I really liked. After I got off work I decided to restart that song and got 3 ads all about 30 seconds each and was like whatever. After the ads I got the screen that's like watch this short video for 30 minutes of ad-free music and I normally do this. So it plays the ad and then plays a second ad this one for Spotify about how I can use other apps and still listen to Spotify and I was like okay this is weird but whatever. I had looked at the time as I wanted to see what time it was and it was 8:16. Down the road, I hear an ad after a.somg and I was like it hasn't been 30 minutes so I look at the time and it's 8:25. So the 30 minutes of ad-free turned into 9 minutes. I was not pleased and continued on my way home and low and behold 9 minutes later more ads. First there are too many ads. Second I'm done and will never touch a Spotify product or anything that is involved with Spotify again. I immediately shut the app off and went to my music library. It's one thing and it's a big thing to pay artists literally nothing for their songs you then screw over your own customers to get more money. I'm good and will find a company that doesn't cry about apple taking business from them then turns around and treats artist and their customer base like trash. Other services offer a better product that might be why they choose others it's not just price. If you cared for anything other than money and had a even good product I don't mind spending extra money when I can get it cheaper somewhere else. See what I did there? So I have used Apple Music for the longest time and decided I would like to save money so wanted to try Spotify again. It seems if you pause a song after watching a video that cuts into your ad free time. The amount of ads Is too much that after a few hours I’m going back to Apple Music and paying for the subscription. I understand your running a business but this is like worse than Hulu level of ads.

I love this app and usually it’s very easy to use, but currently I’m experiencing a glitch where downloaded music won’t play offline. I use it at least 5-8 hours a day while I work so tbh it has been a really big blow. I have removed all my downloads and only downloaded certain playlists however it still won’t work. I’ve also logged off and back on as well as completely redownload the app but I’m still having problems. Oddly this seemed to start abt 4 days ago with the patch update so something in that might have bugged it? Another weird thing, the only song I can listen to offline is NEW MAGIC WAND. I don’t know what this has to do with anything but it’s just odd. Anyway the guy I emailed hasn’t gotten back so I thought writing a bad review might get some attention.

Now I want to get things straight about 1 Month ago I downloaded spotify and I thought it was the best thing ever for music. I was not paying for primiem I was just on the free version. And it was great until today. I went and found the spotify app on my phone and opened it just to find out that I was signed out and it would not accept my password even though is was the correct password. And also when I could sign in my playlists would not do anything I would try to play a song and it would only give me a clip of it. Then when I tried to delete that playlist it would not let me but the thing that upset me the most was when I created a new playlist when I add a song it would add a bunch of other songs that I did not want. So I decided to delete spotify and be done with it.

Spotify used to be good years ago. Now: 1. If you type a song to search for it, and click on the song to add it to your playlist, it takes you to some random playlist that the song isn’t even in, and you have to scroll to look for it. When it should take you directly to the song. 2. If you click on an artists profile to see their songs, you can’t even click on the songs at the top to view all the songs, like you used to do. Now, you have to click through each individual album to search for it. 3. You can’t click “don’t play this song”. And if you do hide it from your playlist, it still plays in that playlist. Trash software. Download something else.

Switched from Apple Music to this.. I absolutely hate it. Can’t shuffle through my library. Only “liked” songs. Library doesn’t give you the option to view them as songs only as podcasts, albums, or playlists. In like “liked” songs I can’t even have them ordered alphabetically. The app just seems chaotic, controlled (not in a good way) and disorganized. I can’t CHOOSE how I want to view things or do things it just HAS to be Spotify’s way. Horrible. Switching back to Apple Music.
