Spotify Updates Mobile and Tablet Apps With New Home Screen for Quicker Access to Favorites

by

Spotify today updated its home screen on iOS and Android, providing users with an easier way to access their favorite songs, playlists, and albums. This update will also appear on the Spotify app for tablets.

The main change can be found at the top portion of the home screen, which now greets users with a "Good morning" message. This area recommends songs, playlists, and albums that are the most "familiar" to each user, and Spotify said it was built to quickly access albums you've been listening to repeatedly and current podcasts.

As the day progresses, the app will transition to "Good afternoon" and "Good evening" messages, and update with new content. In total, six pieces of content can be found in this new section of the home screen on Spotify, but they aren't user customizable.

Below this area is where you can find top podcasts, "Made for you" playlists, recommendations for new music based on your listening habits, and more. Overall, Spotify said that its new update should make it "easier than ever to find something to listen to."

Keep going Spotify! I've never used you, but you seem to be doing well!
Try it for only a week, you will never look back, brand-independence is a good thing!

Spotify IS a brand. I think you intended to say platform independence is a good thing.

Still I'd like for both to be like Tidal and offer lossless audio streaming quality.

EDIT: After all .... the HomePod supports FLAC and ALAC for Hi-Res audio

And we still don't have listening history on mobile after all those years. Anyone knows why really?
