There are some notable holdouts, though, such as the creation and management of <strong>Playlist folders<\/strong>. This feature lets listeners organize their library more efficiently by grouping playlists into folders and subfolders.<\/p>\n<p>While Spotify listeners can view these folders in the mobile apps, the ability to edit or create new ones has been exclusively available on the desktop client. It&#8217;s been over a decade and a half since the feature&#8217;s introduction, and it looks like Spotify is finally laying the groundwork for the rollout of <strong>Playlist folders<\/strong> on the Android app. <\/p>\n<p>In <strong>version 9.1.34.12 <\/strong>of the Spotify app, Android Authority has found code that sheds light on how <strong>Playlist folders<\/strong> will work on mobile. Some of the code reveals common menu items, including the ability to create a new folder and give it a name.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, users will also be able to rename or delete entire folders, which will remove all the playlists inside them. Given that the latter action removes all of your organized playlists, it will prompt a warning that reads &#8220;Do you really want to delete this folder and all playlist inside?&#8221; <\/p>\n<h2 id=\"the-wait-has-been-way-too-long\">\n                        The wait has been way too long<br \/>\n               <\/h2>\n<p>        Credit:\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Additional lines of code reveal that Spotify will also facilitate the easy moving of playlists between folders and your library without ever leaving the Android app.<\/p>\n<p>Move&#8230;<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidpolice.com\/spotify-mobile-android-playlist-folders-leak\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Spotify wants to bring this long-overdue feature to Android https:\/\/www.androidpolice.com\/spotify-mobile-android-playlist-folders-leak\/ Publish Date: 2026-03-16 12:45:00 Source&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":224269,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/static0.anpoimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/spotify-logo-surrounded-by-icons-for-blend-jam-and-spotify-connect-features.png?w=1600&h=900&fit=crop","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-224268","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-android"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/224268"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=224268"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/224268\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":224270,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/224268\/revisions\/224270"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/224269"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=224268"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=224268"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=224268"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
