Uh.it looks like the "Search" and "Your Library" tabs are still right there at the bottom of the UI, just like always. The complaints center around Spotify trying to do “too much at the same time,” making it harder to just find music and playlists.
You open the app and are greeted with quick access to your most recent albums, songs, and artists. Podcasts aren’t randomly inserted into your Apple Music playlists. You won’t find audiobooks and podcasts cluttering up the experience.
With a few small exceptions, the Apple Music app is focused on music. But there’s one thing Apple Music has going for it: Apple’s not trying to do too much with it. The Apple Music app is stale, laggy, and difficult to navigate in many different places. The redesigned Spotify app is bad, but Apple Music isn’t great. At the same time, however, I’m hoping Apple sees this as an opportunity to improve Apple Music and entice disgruntled Spotify users to join its service instead. I enjoy some of Spotify’s curated playlists, but this redesign has sealed the deal for me to never switch back to Spotify full-time. Personally, I dabble with Spotify but primarily use Apple Music. Perhaps, unsurprisingly, that’s not the case. Spotify apparently thought this new design might be a win-win: friendlier to what users actually want while also driving engagement to nonmusic offerings, like podcasts and audiobooks. The company spent a lot of money on podcasts and audiobooks, and it’s struggling to drive user engagement to justify those investments. This has been a growing problem for Spotify, as it has attempted to cram more and more into the same app. Hear me out… Spotify’s new designĪ quick look at the response to coverage of the new Spotify interface reveals that most users aren’t very happy with it. The redesign has received quite a bit of criticism from music fans - and it could represent a major opportunity for Apple Music. Yesterday, Spotify announced what it described as its “biggest evolution yet,” with a new TikTok-style Home feed that combines music, podcasts, audiobooks, and more into a single feed.
