Random landscape mode in app. Unfortunately queueing songs is a premium-only feature, so you need Spotify Premium in order to listen to stations. Landscape mode is gone since the latest update ofSpotify in Android. When you see the artwork / album cover of a song, landscape mode won't function anymore. In other screens, it does work. See my attachements for screenshots. Bring landscape. QUESTION Spotify app landscape mode Question (self.jailbreak) submitted 2 years ago by Ilovebreadsticks There used to be a Flex tweak that allowed to use the app on landscape mode, but it's broken on the newest versions. At Spotify, they are often testing and launching improvements and new features. When Spotify is testing, you may see something on the app your friend doesn’t, or get a new feature for only a temporary.

Research
Analyzing Secondary Data
Spotify App Landscape
To begin, I conducted a rapid research session of secondary sources. I spent a few hours getting a sense of Spotify’s place within the landscape of streaming music providers and gathering enough information to help determine the focus and scope of my research. I identified some key challenges and opportunities and made a list of initial assumptions and questions. From there, I conducted a competitive analysis comparing competitors’ strengths and weaknesses, as well as identifying where opportunities for Spotify to differentiate itself with a social feature might exist.
App Audit
In my research, I found that Millennial’s comprise 72% of Spotify listeners and are also listed as top smartphone users, with a 98% ownership rate. Based on this information, I made the initial assumption that Spotify’s users might prefer to connect and communicate socially through Spotify via the mobile app.
Although extremely familiar with the mobile app, I thought it was important to conduct an app audit. This helped me gain a clear grasp of the app’s architecture, hierarchy and content, which I felt was important to establish before considering how a new feature might integrate within the design.
Provisional Personas

I then created three provisional personas based on key demographics and behavioral traits of Spotify users. These personas helped me frame my interview planning and identify ideal interview subjects.
Conducting Primary Research
Spotify Ipad App Landscape
Drawing from the list of questions and assumptions I drafted during my secondary research and research plan, I crafted questions to ask participants about their music listening and sharing habits. I interviewed 5 people in person at a local coworking / coffee shop. Participants ranged in age from early 20’s to mid 30's, resided in major US cities, and reported listening to music daily.
