Spotify is testing a new mobile app design: More prominent album art

Spotify is one of the most famous music streaming services around. The company is currently testing a revised mobile app design that makes album display more prominent, though this also makes some other changes to the user interface that may not please par of the old users.

According to Android police’s report, Spotify has been doing A/B testing of those changes with a limited group of Android users instead of everyone.

The changes focus on the “now playing” view, displaying the album art full-screen with a fade-out effect towards the bottom of the screen where the controls are shown. Users can tap the screen to hide the controls only leaving the album art visible.
