Option to disable the automatic background color change


Guys....seriously, we have to talk about this last Android update. What. Tha. Hell. is that automatic background color change everytime I skip a song? It's such a enfuriating thing to have a white background striking your eyes at midnight when you just want to put some calm music in order to get ready to sleep.



SERIOUSLY



You need to make that coloured background optional! Give us the possibility to disable that, it's so annoying!



THIS IS SERIOUS.



Thank you.
I 100% agree with you, this new change is really disappointing it also ruin the aesthetic of some album covers...



Give us the option to disable it please.
This new background color change is a big bowl of wrong, It is annoying. It makes you sick. It is lame. It is tacky and of bad taste. It is an ignorant decision to do that. Background color should be black, period. If you want to implement this lame color change do so but allow users to keep the traditional way. I will wait a few days. If nothing happens I see no other option but to cancel my premium account and go to Spotity. I refuse to use the app as it is now after this update. I am sure app developers are ignorant stubborn people and they will not reconsider. What is losing one user right? They do not care about what i think.
please change the new background color feature to have the option to return to the oldest style

It should be optional not a must to premium users

Thanks,

Thanks for the feedback, everyone. I also gave my vote and passed this on to the right team!

Keep the opinions and votes coming 😉
Please give us an option to turn this feature off. ITS horribel as it is now! My metal albums have gone to a discoteque. I feel not home in this everchanging enviroment.
Came here for this. Please, put an option to go back to the dark background.

I miss it.
I really don't like the bright playful colours on the ipod deeper app, they makes my screen look like a kids toy. I know some users like it but I'd like to choose a theme or skin to get away from this new look.
Hi there @alfcole



Please register your vote here.



Thanks for the feedback, guys. Keep it coming so that we can pass it all to our team!
Still no update on this change ? When can we expect an answer ?
Hey @Lawnwake



Hopefully when we have more updates about Dark Mode, for example.
Hey,

I'm a bit late but this has been implemented quite recently in the mobile app :)

Just go to Settings > Display settings, and you'll see two toggle switches:


  • Dark mode: switch between light and dark mode.
  • Monochrome player: switch it on to disable adaptative background/accent color change.
Even with monochrome player on, the notification color will still change based on the album cover, though.
What app version do you have @TedGrassman? I'd like to pass the feedback on.
I actually have the beta versionon Android (6.1.9.1)
That could be an issue with the Beta app, so I'll be passing it on to our devs. Thank you @TedGrassman 🙂
@Rudi The main issue is fixed in the Beta app thanks to the monochrome player setting (it works fine on my phone: the background stays dark grey) :)

The only remaining "issue" (it is not one for me) is that the notification color still change with monochrome player on.
Ok! That's a bit different. Could you please take a screenshot @TedGrassman?
Here you go, a nice example with a bright orange color (monochrome player is on in display Settings) 😁


Aha! You meant in the phone's lock screen, the little widget. Good point @TedGrassman I'll feed that back to our team, thank you very much!

I just have to say something hilarious. I don’t know if my ad blocker is doing weird things or something is wrong with Deezer but… I am not paying anything, I am on Free Plan yet… I can pick any song, skip to any part of it, not have ads, can skip any song and can listen to any song. I also have best sound Quality. WHY??? The only things I can’t do are: Quizzes, listen Offline.
