My Question or Issue

The six stations at the top of my home screen (under Good Morning, good evening, etc) don't ever change. I'm towards the end of my two month premium trial and the stations don't change ever, not by time of day and not over time. I've been using spotify now about 7 weeks, and there's a station in my shortcuts that I listened to once like three weeks ago. I understand it's supposed to change based on time of day and my listening habits, but this isn't happening. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling spotify and they didn't change. I have spotify on my desktop and the first six shortcuts listed match what I see on my phone. Please help! Thanks.

Hey @Couponslasher,

Thanks for reaching out and welcome to the Community!

Keep in mind that the entries in those playlists are based not only on your personal likes, but also on your region and the music libraries of users with similar tastes. That's why it might take a while for the list to get updated with more fresh content. You can help the algorithm by expanding your library with new liked songs and albums or liking additional artists. That would speed up the process and you should see an improvement in a couple of weeks.

Other users have also went ahead and posted an idea about having the option to customize the Home Screen and the shortcuts you see there. If that's something you'd also like to see, you can add your support there by up-voting the idea. We'll inform on any developments there, as soon as there are any. So make sure to subscribe, if you haven't already. 

Hope this is helpful but don't hesitate to let us know if you have any further questions!

I have been having the exact same problem as the OP actually... It has been happening since around Christmas.In the answer by the moderator, they said that it was probably because OP didn't have enough music, but for me that's definitely not the case: I had over 161 000 minutes listened in 2021 and I have over 3000 liked songs... I have also tried reinstalling the app (rip my downloads) to no avail. The shortcuts are also the same as on the desktop version and don't change there either. Anything that can be done to fix this would be appreciated.. Thank you!
