Spotiplay

Here is my first application for Spotify, which i wrote for few weeks experimenting with beautiful Angular Material implementing features which my favorite music service lack, but wanted by me pretty much:
  • Sort playlists by names, tracks, followers
  • Separate music to my own and followed
  • Navigate through artists, albums within selected playlist. (Actually i even did vice-versa available, in any combination, so i can see which playlists i have with James Brown)
So here is what i got and how it looks:


Playlists sorted by name and filtered by "lo"



Artists within my playlist "jazz1"




Tracks of Kenny Burrell in playlist "jazz1"






All tracks of Enea DJ only from my playlists (excluding followed playlists)





If you like the idea - you are welcomed to use and share with friends!

I've tested on my macbook & chromebook. Hope it will work anywhere with modern browsers, though if any bugs noticed - feel free to feedback.

What i would add next:
  • "playlists" or better to say folders for artists
  • easy adding to playlists from spotify
  • blacklisting of certain tracks on spotify
  • customisation of playlists and discussions inside
  • ...
If you feel that something very convenient would be great to have here - will be happy to hear suggestions.

Thank you for reading!

  1. Why do you/Spotiplay program require, what I feel is invasive, the following information?

    Spotiplay will be able to:

    Read your publicly available information
    Access your subscription details
    Access your private playlists
    Access your collaborative playlists
    Manage your public playlists
    Manage your private playlists
    Access your saved tracks and albums

    1. Yeah, all those rights required for application.
      Access playlists - is to read your playlists and give you ability to manage them (sort, filter)
      Save playlists - is to have ability to enqueue tracks to playlist called "Spotiplay queue", which you can compose from sorted results

  2. Is there any way to save this playlist ordering to a Spotify account? So that when I log in the desktop or mobile application it remembers the ordering from here?

    1. Sure, I've added button "save" there. It saves current list to playlist "Queue" in Spotify which you can rename later

  3. Where is this save button you speak of?

    1. After several attempts, I managed to get it working. However, the list is loaded but many playlist have to be manually loaded and that's a pain. However the reason why I tried this was not to order music inside the playlists but to order the playlist itself (how they appear in Spotify) and that option is not available here. The save button is only for modification within the playlists.

  5. This is exactly my issue. I want to alphabetize the playlists themselves, not the tracks within playlists. Will your app do that now?
