Premium paying users of Spotify’s music streaming service now receive a separate play and shuffle button instead of the combined play/shuffle button that used to play a playlist in any order.
Play and Mix as separate buttons
With this simple and delayed change, a distinction between free and paid versions will also be made in the future, because in the ad-supported free version of Spotify, playlists can only be played in shuffle mode. The change to the Spotify app will roll out to all markets around the world in the coming weeks, rolling out simultaneously to Android and iOS. Going forward, premium users will simply see two separate play and mix buttons in the app instead of the previously combined button.
This new change will allow you to choose the mode you prefer at the top of playlists and albums and listen the way you want. Whether you like the joy of the unexpected with shuffle mode, or prefer to listen to tunes in order by simply pressing play, Spotify has you covered.
