They did add audiobooks.

Though the interface for audiobooks sucks, so I hope they improve it.

The last thing I ever wanted from Spotify was audiobooks or podcasts. We've had excellent apps available for several years already, we don't need half assed bloat added to (very poorly) replicate the same features

The part is what drives me mad. Podcasts and audiobooks are not that hard to do properly. You could very easily separate them into distinct apps or at least a special tab that acts like a proper player. Instead audiobooks are basically albums.

There's a shuffle button.

On an audiobook.

Yup this is what irks me most. I don't think of audio books and music in the same context. Why the fuck are they mashing them together? Wrapped includes podcasts.....
