- Spotify introduced a “Create” button in its app’s bottom navigation, but the move sparked widespread user backlash.
- Code within the latest app release suggests the company is listening to user feedback, as it could soon give users an option to hide the Create button.
- This opt-out toggle is not yet live, nor has Spotify officially confirmed it.
Old habits die hard, and Spotify is learning this the hard way. The service introduced the “Create” button on its homepage’s bottom navigation bar in good faith, making it easier for users to create different types of playlists. While a few people like the Create button, almost everyone else hates it. Users have been very vocal about how the Create button messes up their muscle memory, and it seems Spotify has taken note of the feedback as it works on making the Create button optional on the homepage navigation bar.
