The streaming giant has unveiled a vibrant transformation of its iconic green-and-black logo, replacing it with a dazzling disco ball to commemorate its 20th anniversary. This visual refresh is part of Spotify’s global campaign, aptly named “Spotify 20: Your Party of the Year(s),” though it is important to note that this change is temporary and will not be a permanent fixture in the app’s branding.

Spotify fans left divided by new app design
The updated app design has elicited a spectrum of reactions from Spotify users across social media platforms. While some users have embraced the new aesthetic, expressing their enthusiasm with comments like, “A green disco ball?!?! I love it!” and “Just updated mine, looks pretty dope,” others have voiced their confusion and dissatisfaction.
Some users mistook the new design for a technical glitch. One user on X (formerly Twitter) remarked, “Waking up to see Spotify changed their app logo for their 20 year anniversary – I legit thought it had glitched out or something. Sorry but I don’t like it.” Another echoed this sentiment, stating, “Yea legit, I thought it was updating on first glance.”
Criticism was also present, with some users being more direct in their disapproval. Comments such as “Ew” and “Awful design choice that” surfaced, highlighting the divide among listeners regarding the new look.
