Spotify Mobile Gets Major Playlist Upgrade

Spotify has rolled out significant new playlist management features to its mobile application, signaling a shift from recent AI-driven updates. The update introduces playlist folders, mirroring a popular desktop feature, allowing users to better organize their music collections with nested folder capabilities.

Furthermore, the mobile app now supports bulk editing for playlists, enabling users to move or remove multiple songs and podcasts simultaneously. This functionality also extends to the user's Spotify queue. For enhanced offline listening, background downloads for music and podcasts are now supported.

These playlist folder and bulk editing features are available to all users globally. However, the ability to bulk edit the queue, along with background downloads and a new 'reshuffle' button for playlists, are currently exclusive to Premium subscribers.
