Some of these tests end up paving the way for our wider user experience and others are just for learning. Our Spotify Stations beta was one of the current features that we will be removing, but users will be able to easily transfer their favorite stations and enjoy a similar radio experience directly within the Spotify app,” a spokesperson for Spotify said. Spotify in a statement.
The Stations app was originally designed for those who want a more radio-like experience, rather than having to search for music or customize their own playlists.
Spotify Stations first launched in Australia in 2018, then rolled out in the US in 2019.
