Go Back In Queue

After queueing up a selection of songs, it's doesn't make any sense that when you press the back button to replay the last song it jumps back to whatever you were playing before the queue AND removes the song you went back from from the queue. "Back" should take you back to the last song you actually played! Playing a song from the queue shouldn't completely remove it from now playing, Apple Music doesn't do this. There's zero benefit to the way it functions right now, it only ruins the moment when you're in the zone listening to music and it doesn't behave the way it should

PLEASE - this has been bothering me for as long as I've had Spotify. I accidentally press the "go back" button or something and then have to remake the entire queue.

Hey, at least on Desktop, there is an option to see what was played earlier in queue. If you hit the queue button in the bottom right, then in the top left there's a button that says "recently played." It's not exactly the same but you can at least see it. (see image below)

This was a reason why I switched to Apple Music. It doesn't have this problem. If Spotify fixed it, I would switch back.

Say I am playing an album. And mid album, I decide to queue a few random tracks. Now, as one of the queued track plays, I click on Next. The next queued track plays. Now I click on Previous. THE PREVIOUS SONG FROM THE ALBUM PLAYS! Whatever tracks I queued before this one are gone. Previous only goes back to tracks from the album/playlist.


If we are going by intuition here, the track that was queued before the current one should play when I click on Previous. 

 

Please change this soon. I don't know how you guys decided to keep it this way in the first place.
