My Question or Issue

The hide this song/🚫 button has disappeared from my playlist radios, I've tried restarting my phone, re-downloading Spotify, and logging out of all devices, to no avail.

Below is attached an image of what my radio screen looks like: (where there is no option for me to 🚫 or like the song respectively, only the heart on the right side)

Hi @nightlystars, 
 
Thank you for reaching out here in the Community!

This is an intended behaviour of the Spotify app. 

The Don't play this button  is only available in Discover Weekly and Release Radar playlists. 

Please, check this idea. If that's something you're interested in, make sure to add your +VOTE there and subscribe to the topic. That way you'll be notified with all the future updates on that case. 

Here's an additional idea that might interest you. 

If it's not exactly what you'd want to see in the app, you're always welcome to post your own idea in the Idea Exchange. For more details on that, check this article. 

I hope it helps!

but... why? this used to be a feature, how come you removed it? it was one of the defining advantages of Spotify

Hi @olleanund, 

Spotify is often testing and launching improvements and new features. 

This means you might see something on the app your friend doesn’t, or get a new feature to try only temporarily. 

If you'd like to see the  button back, the best way to leave your feedback is in those ideas I linked in my previous response. 

It would be helpful if you click on +VOTE there because this shows how many people is interested in that idea.

I hope you'll find this useful!
