It's not that stagnant, they have time to make the product worse imo. Their recent UX changes broke my weekly workflow, they buried the discover playlists behind three clicks and scroll, and they seem to have changed the algo so that it recycles the same songs over and over again (though my listening patterns have changed a bit since a recent addition to the family). Playlists are harder to create. And heaven forbid the thing you want to listen to is listed at the top of the iphone app when you open it, because they're going to refresh the list in 3... 2... 1... oh it's gone.

Sorry for the rant. I love Spotify. Nearly all of recorded music for one low low price. I wish they would realize that their apps are utilities, not social, and stop optimizing for engagement.

All I want to do is change the bluetooth settings back to my phone and all I see is "start a remote group session!" No thank you, get your sharing features out of my face.
