My Question or Issue

Syncing your saved songs between devices, especially between different operating systems, is totally broken. If I save a song while using the desktop version and go online on my phone it downloads the song and it appears in the saved songs list. But if you than go offline on your phone and reopen the app the songs are not listed. Going online will make them reappear but going offline will make them disappeare. It usally takes about one eternity and several reconnects over mutliple eons to fix the saved songs list in offline mode. On the topic of saved songs list: its so broken you almost wonder where those 9,99 went. Removed songs from the saved list in offline mode will break the list because spotiy cant figure out which songs are actualy saved because it has different lists from dekstop, mobile(online) and mobile(offline) but instead of merging and sorting by saved date and going through removal and adding of songs by date it just says yolo and you have literally have a coin flip that decides if your saved list ends up the way its support to. Continuing with more rant: the search function cant handle 'big data' (it even fails at like 80 sons). Searching for a song in offline mode on my phone has a 33% chance of giving me either the result I want, the song multiple times or nothing at all. Because the saved list is so bugged I even managed to add the same song twice.

I honestly don't know how a big company can **bleep** this up so badly. To fix the sync between devices just treat the saved song lost as a freaking playlist and add songs with the parameters: ID, name, authors, album, album cover art ID, and DATE ADDED. Your 8th grade programming studends that had 2h of mysql practice could probably do this better.
