Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get back the last song I removed from a playlist?
There is no undo option for removing a song from a playlist. If you wish to re-add the song you removed, you'll have to locate the song using the search bar and adding it to the playlist of your choice from the drop down menu.
Do I have to share a new link when I update a playlist on Spotify?
No - any changes you make to the playlist will go live and be visible to anyone who previously had access to your playlist via a link or collaboration invitation.
Can anyone with my playlist link remove songs?
No - removing songs is only possible if you are the owner or collaborator on a playlist. Sharing the link to a playlist does not grant editing access automatically.
