We need a songmark

[azurtem]

Hi
Since realizing the limits of the Spotify queue system I have actually ceased using the queue altogether
I simply place my cursor somewhere in my playlist and start my listening off from there. My queue currently contains 1424 tunes.
What seems to be missing with this approach is a songmark (equivalent to a bookmark for books) enabling me to resume from where I last left off.
Ideally it would be great if this songmark could be shared amongst the devices to which I am logged in; allowing me to pursue my song playlist from the same point, whatever platform I choose to use
I believe the repetitiousness wouldn't be so flagrant if such a songmark was available to users

Hi @azurtem

This feature sort of already exists. If you close Spotify in the middle of a song, it will usually let you pick up where you left off.

If you would like a feature like this to be added, I recommend adding it to the Idea Exchange!

See how the Idea Exchange works here.

If my answer was useful, don't forget to give it a 'Like!' If my answer was the solution, don't forget to mark it as the solution! Thanks! 😇

If you need anything else, please reply and ask, or shoot me a Private Message! Feel free to follow my Spotify or Community profiles!  Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with Spotify.

Thanks for your response

As you say, it sort of exists.

If however I search for and add a new song to the playlist then the (native) song mark disappears

Secondly this song mark doesn't seem to be attached to the account : if I connect to my account using a different device and listen to the same playlist the (native) songmark isn't recovered/preserved  

By the way, the idea exchange is no longer available : 

"Hi folks,

Due to a high amount of new Idea Submissions to review, we are temporarily pausing new submissions.

We apologize for the inconvenience. Please check back later!"

Thanks for letting me know about the Idea Exchange closure. I've never seen them do that before.

I'll check back periodically and let you know when it has reopened.
