I'm new to Spotify. It seems to me that the app on Android (7.0) is missing icons.
My bottom row only has (Your Playlists, Home, Search). I think it's supposed to have Browse and Library. They show up for a split second when I fist load the app, then disappear. Are these features on premium only?
Hey @IndyLux,
Thanks for posting to the community, and welcome to Spotify! This idea was already submitted to the Spotify Team over here.
To ensure Spotify feels familiar across all the different platforms and moments in peoples lives, Spotify works hard to ensure the experience feels like Spotify everywhere, which means Spotify follows their own UI guidelines and would not follow the material design guidelines.

With regards to the missing buttons, can you please try reinstalling the app? This handy-dandy article will show you how: https://support.spotify.com/article/reinstallation-of-spotify/

That's really weird.
If you have access to another account, would you be able to try on that account? If you could also take some screenshots and give me the app version (Device Settings > Apps > Spotify. It should be under the app title), that would help a lot.
Cheers!
Tim
I'll try another account. Here are the screenshots.
Plot thickens, it's the account! Made another account on the same phone and the app looks normal.... Issue is I just transferred my account from Groove Music and now I want to move everything over to this functioning account. I'll try to play with that. What an odd problem.
