Spotify Removes Temporary Disco Ball App Icon After User Feedback
Spotify has reverted its iOS app icon to its original design, removing the temporary disco ball icon introduced for the company's 20th-anniversary celebrations. The celebratory icon, which was intended to be temporary, faced widespread criticism from users regarding its unusually shimmery appearance and its impact on visibility within the app interface. The removal comes almost a month after the disco ball icon was first implemented.
Spotify has concluded its temporary use of a disco ball app icon, reverting its iOS application icon to the original design. The themed icon was introduced as part of the streaming service's 20th-anniversary celebrations.
Initially, the disco ball icon was met with significant user dissatisfaction. Critics noted its unusually shimmery aesthetic and reported that its design negatively impacted the app's visibility on user devices.
According to reports, the icon was widely disliked by the user base. Spotify on iOS recently transitioned back to its standard app icon, nearly a month after the temporary design was first observed.
This change came later than Spotify had originally indicated. The company had previously confirmed that the disco ball logo was expected to disappear before the end of May, leading to some user frustration over the delay.
According to Android Authority, the temporary disco ball icon has now been removed for good.
