EDIT: Idea has become deprecated, requested feature still exists. See comment for details. Since I do not know how to close an idea without deleting it (and thus making the solution inaccessible to others with the same problem) I will leave it open for the mods to decide what to do with it. The issue: Since the last update, the perviously available option to sort playlists on the Android mobile app in a custom order (i.e. the order set on the Desktop app) is no longer available. The idea: Bring back the option to sort playlists in a custom order. The desired implementation: In the options for sorting, add the option "custom" again. Selecting it displays the playlists in the order set on the Desktop app. Why I think it would be an improvement: I have ordered my playlists in a specific order on purpose. I have a lot (and I mean a lot) of playlists. Finding the right one is already pretty daunting when they are sorted according to my system but it becomes downright tedious when I have to find them in an everchanging order (sorted by last played) or an order that I am unfamiliar with (alphabetical). Bringing back the option for a custom ordering would greatly improve the ability to navigate my own library again. A side note: It would be great if such a filtering option would also be available when adding a song to a playlist on mobile. That UI is sorted seemingly randomly and it takes minutes to find the playlist I want to add a song to, especially if the order updates every time. Sort and filter to better view lists of music and podcasts. Filter lets you search a specific list, or show downloads only. Sort lets you view lists in a particular order, for example:
