Homescreen Playlists for Spotify
Don't like navigating the Spotify UI just to open a playlists? This widget will solve your problem. Adds a widget that will put your playlists right onto the homescreen.
Usage
1. Find the widget in the widget listing and drag it to the homescreen.
2. Select which playlists should appear in the widget.
3. Arrange the playlists.
4. Done!
Notes
- App will fetch playlists of the spotify user who is currently logged in.
- If you are not logged in, a login prompt will be shown.
- Once placed, the widget does't update. (Accessing spotify data might involve login prompts and such, so it't hard to update the data in the background).
- Some low-spec phones might have trouble opening a playlist sometimes. The widget instructs to open a playlist. If that instruction doesn't reach the spotify app for whatever reason, there's not much I can do about it.
- Make sure you have some free space for the images and such.
- There is probably a limit on how much stuff you can have in one widget. Might not work if you add thousands.

This app is just a quick shortcut to your playlist... no big deal... It would be nice if it would also let you view the songs and artists in the selected playlist and not just the playlists only. The old Spotify Widget allowed us to do that...
It does its job, but it isn't what I wanted. I was hoping to find something to replace the widget spotify retired so i xould easily manage my music from the home screen, however this widgett only lists the playlists you have selected.
The widget works great thus far, does everything I expected it to do! P.S. Please add the ability to select albums XD!! Would make this widget a 6 out of 5 stars.
It's something Spotify should have in it. I just wish it was editable so we don't have to remake the entire list every time we make a change.
Love it. Would like to edit the playlists without having to set up a new widget every time, otherwise perfect.
This app is amazing, although the only problem is when you wanna switch through songs it doesn't work and the song just dissapears
The widget won't update when the next song plays, it just shows the song I was playing when I put the widget on my screen. Please fix this, I'm in a Samsung Note 8
Widget doesn't show up in my widget list even after removing and reinstalling it.
Fantastic... No crashes in 3 yours and virtually no memory use all things considered
You can't play music like you used to bE able to. This makes me SO angry. I hate the new update.
Awesome. Absolutely recommend to any Spotify user.
App will not let you open it,once it's done installing. 1 star for a good idea.
Great app, a little confusing that it isn't an app, but works very well
Doesnt work with Spotify Lite
does not connect to spotify.
Can't open . There is not a option for opening the app .
nice idea but i dont see my playlist
didnt work kept giving me an authentication error.
Rounded corners would be nice
∆ 'how to' pin a playlist to start? please let me know.
I am not able to use it
Trying it out
Widget doesn't scroll after Oreo update...please fix, was very good before that!
Can't edit widget once created. Pulls playlists from Spotify which is convenient unless you have a lot of playlists and there is no search. I have over 600 play lists. Would also like to see which lists I have downloaded which are the ones I would likely add to the widget for quick access while traveling. No transparency for the widget. Again no way to further customize add to reorder widget makes this not practical.
Awesome. Thank you so much for developing this simple and brilliant app, the features of which are inexplicably not baked into the Android Spotify App in the first place. Yes, it could be more refined, but it is simple and it works. Bear in mind you can create as many widgets as you like and they will all still work. Brilliant app. 5 stars.
Would be great if we could edit the opacity of the widget in order to make it transparent, that would be perfect for most of us.
Great app. Does exactly what it claims. I had to restart phone on install, but everything worked great after that
Used to be so awesome but now appears to be broken!! Please please fix it, I rely on this every day and it's criminal that Spotify itself doesn't offer a similar widget
Oh I'm so happy I found this. Works great. I had difficulties to make it run earlier (widget needed to acquire permissions from Spotify which didn't happen), but after I've reinstalled Spotify app, problem disappeared. -- I found this widget a perfect solution to create a custom collection of playlists, that are ok for car rides. I needed those playlists to be displayed all on one screen, single-tap access (to be able to switch them without much distraction from road). Native spotify features would allow only to create some extra folder, where I would need to place duplicates of suitable playlists to have the all on one screen to select quickly.
