[Android] Adding random songs to selfmade playlists

[EJones074]

When using the mobile Spotify app, Spotify adds songs to a playlist that's self-made. This shouldn't be happening, since I don't have selected the "Autoplay" function. People say it's because a playlist is too short or it's because it's not a premium account, but even then it still happens.

No disrespect or anything or anything in those directions, I just wanted to say that it's sometimes a bit annoying that Spotify keeps adding songs that I'm not interested in.

I hope you have a lovely day.

Hey @EJones074, 

Thanks for reaching out about this here in the Community. 

We moved your post from the Ideas board to the relevant Help board, where it fits better.

We can confirm that the behavior you described is expected for the mobile app using the free service. Our goal is to help you find new music we think you'll love. That's why you're seeing suggested tracks and artists for your playlists as you create and edit them. The more you listen, the better the suggestions will become.

If you have less than 15 songs in your Favorite Songs, we'll add more songs. You will see a message telling you that the extra songs were added by us, but they can be replaced by adding more songs.

On another note, this only happens in the mobile, but not in the desktop app. Additionally, you can check how the Spotify free experience works in the mobile app here.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback with us and will make sure to pass it onto the right team, as we always strive to improve your experience.

If you need a hand with anything else, the Community is here for you. 

Cheers!
