DonS 3,067 Posted August 18, 2019 I just recently signed up for Spotify premium and it was working great on my Android phone, until today when I installed an update. After the update I discovered that the widget has been removed. You can read about it here: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Social/Spotify-widget-gone/td-p/4802920 It seems like a minor thing, but removing the widget completely makes the app less than ideal. Since I just joined I have zero loyalty to this service and am thinking of ending my subscription. I actually need to check to see if I'm still within the 30 day free trial. Do any of you guys use alternative music streaming services on Android? Any suggestions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted August 19, 2019 ITunes? Apple music? Same thing? I would be hard pressed to switch away from Spotify with the play lists I have built. Especially my awesome gangster rap Playlist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Love making my own playlists. They have other playlists that update weekly. One I follow is called #throwbackthursdays which has different throwbacks every week. No commercials is the best part Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Regular Amazon music from prime has nowhere close to "everything". But if you are into pay services unlimited is great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I won't pay for any music service. I also do Pandora basic, which is just great in my opinion, I don't mind a 30 second commercial every 3 songs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cruzer 1,992 Posted August 19, 2019 I have AP music, but rarely use it... Pandora is still free and the site of choice for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hanging with those people who want exact songs everytime is supremely annoying. Then they are halfway through one but there's one they want better so they switch. Obviously if you are alone, do whatever you want. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
