Spotify is killing the heart icon, replacing it with a plus

Vlad, 28 February 2023

Spotify has announced that it's killing the heart icon today. But don't worry, it's all for a higher purpose.

Before, you had the heart icon "to mark the songs you wanted to save", Spotify says in a blog post, and the "Add to playlist" icon to add tracks or episodes to your favorite playlist.

From now on, you'll have one plus icon instead. When you hit plus, you're able to save and choose the destination for any song, playlist, or podcast, with one simple tap.

To save a song or podcast episode, tap the plus button. After your choice has been successfully added to Liked Songs or Your Episodes, the plus will become a green check. Tapping on the green check will let you change the destination of the saved content. Clicking plus also lets you add an entire album, playlist, or audiobook to Your Library.

Spotify says this is the latest step in an ongoing effort to "create a more intuitive experience - all leading to an easier way for you to engage with the music and podcasts you love".

The new plus icon/button is rolling out today to all users on iOS and Android, and will become available on other platforms "in the coming weeks".

Some of us can listen to black metal without the need to over compensate.
