It's annoying that there's no way for people who don't log in through facebook to add friends on the Android app.

I know a lot of people who only use the app, and not the desktop client.

Despite this, I followed the online comments for adding friends using spotify:user:USERNAME, and managed to get me and a friend both following each other, so that we can share music in the desktop client / web app.

However, still nothing shows up under friends on the android app and when selecting share -> Spotify friends, the send button is disabled, regardless of what username you type in. Logging in and out has no effect.

I love spotify, but it's stuff like this that makes me want to switch to another service and makes me hesitant to recommend spotify to friends.

I don't want to offend anyone, but the effort put into the Android app seems minimal, which is disappointing for £10 a month.
