Search for artist and refresh issues

[Bolty2024]

Hi,

when i type in the particular artists it dont seem to find any despite turning off the new button etc, i have tried multiple but shows nothing. I have also noticed some of the resluts from the refresh gives me artists i dont even follow, im not sure why this happens

Everything seems to be fine on my end. Please check your settings, maybe you've turned on loading artists from saved albums / songs? I can't see a scenario where the app would load completely unrelated artist

sorry for the delay,

so ive just noticed again on the refresh that in the artist column it brings up a song called Fo Door, which is by artist [MaJaWick and features 2chainz. however i just want 2chains not anything that he is on. Now my appearances is off (Ibelieve as there is no color code to determine) so i like it to be the main artists that i follow not that they have collab. please advise

Hi

i have sent you an email, still having issues with finding just the artists i follow and bringing up like japan stuff and other things im not following?

[jakubito]

If you have appearances turned off and featurings are still being loaded, Spotify most likely returns them as singles. There's no way around it unfortunately

Hi,

would it be possible to request a feature where you can add the artists id/ link and it search only for that, the same way the block list works?

[jakubito]

What's the use case for that feature?

[Bolty2024]

Well it looks for those artists not random ones that I seem to be getting and would find those that I follow As it just brings up loads of songs that purely I don’t follow Mathew Bolt

for example, i am getting artists i have never heard of, and they are not appearances or features and they are not im library

i was under the impression this app was for new releases by the people we follow on spotify? as im getting things from chinese artists, in settings i have it on from followed artists, im not sure what else to do?

i just think an option would be to look for those by artists code etc, the same way you block, despite still get the VA stuff

as im not getting the artists i want and not sure how to change that
