20 Useful Spotify Features You May Not Know About

Perhaps the function you need is actually in the service - you just didn't know how to find it.

A new useful thread has appeared on Twitter. It contains useful Spotify features (both the app and the desktop version) that many users don't know about.

Spotify Tips Not Everyone Knows About (thread):

- you can ban any artist in the mobile application (so you never see him again);

- you can restore playlists that you accidentally deleted (done in your account settings in the web version);

- commands of the type year: 1970-1975 or year: 1970-1975 NOT year: 1973 in the search bar allow you to search for any tracks by year;
