I'm on the premium plan, using the Windows desktop app version of Spotify. I'm trying to remove a song from my Discover Weekly playlist, since it's been there before and I didn't think much of it the first time. The button to do this has been removed. I can find old posts explaining where it is, and it's not there any more. How do I remove this song from my playlist?

Hey folks,

Thanks for reaching out about this here in the Community.

We're making some internal changes which means that for now you won't be able to hide songs on Discover Weekly from your Desktop. We understand your frustration and are working on resolving this issue as soon as possible.

Thanks for your understanding.

Cheers!

Hi everyone, wanted to jump in here as there seems to be confusion over what a "Solution" is. It is a way for us to present the current answer to the discussion. I understand it isn't "Solved" in terms of resolving the issue, but we use this function of the platform so that the answer is visible to all who find it - and hopefully reduces the need for others to have to take more effort to register and post.

The current Solution explains that we have removed this "hide" feature while we look to improve the underlying solution across Mobile and Desktop.

We are absolutely reading and passing your comments on to internal teams, as we always do. There are no further updates at this time, but we will reply in here when this is fixed and available again for you. Thanks for your understanding and patience - we are Spotify users too and also love this feature! Of course your voices always help keep things in focus for our internal teams, so feel free to tell us how important this feature is for you.

Hi there @_fj1-gf6lbp3h,

Thanks for bringing this to our attention!

We've forwarded the info to our tech folks who'll investigate further. In the meantime, could you confirm the exact version of Spotify you're running?

Cheers 🤘

It is the same for me for the Mac Desktop app:

Earlier this week I was able to remove a song, but then a day or two later I noticed it was 'unhidden' and the option to remove it has disappeared. I also have a Premium plan.

Same here on Spotify voor Windows (64-bits)
1.2.51.345.gcc39d911

Second week.

The work around I use for the moment is to copy the playlist to a new playlist, where I can click on the three dots at the end and 'Remove from playlist'.

MagicallyJenny · 2024-11-25

I am also having this issue, not being able to hide songs from my Discover Weekly playlist. Really missing this feature.

Having the same issue on Spotify for macOS (Apple Silicon)

However, the hide functionality works on iOS 8.9.94.418

albertotoo · 2024-11-25

It's gone for me now as well on Spotify for macOS (Apple Silicon)
1.2.51.345.gcc39d911

vogelaarke · 2024-11-26

Same issue, version 1.2.51.345.gcc39d911 on macOS. Very annoying, since I have played a lot of kid's songs lately for my children, so now my Discover Weekly is contaminated with songs I actually do not like that much...;)

lunzegemaooz · 2024-11-26

Gone for me too in the spotify.com Web version in Chrome. Frustrating to not be able to remove terrible songs.

Deeteeter16 · 2024-11-26

Hi @yordan

Any update on this?

Without this function the dicover weekly list is kind of useless

Mos6581 · 2024-11-26

Same problem for me

Spotify for Windows (64 bit)
1.2.51.345.gcc39d911

elektro_dynamik · 2024-11-27

Same here, a member of staff asked me if I was sure that feature was ever there and recommended uninstalling Spotify 🙄

funkysverk · 2024-11-29

Same fot me, Spotify for Windows (32 bit) 1.2.51.345.gcc39d911. It works to hide inte the mobile app so I use that, but nothing shows in the desktop version. Very annoying!

CarlWheezerAhh · 2024-12-03
