"This is one of those design / marketing moments where I just scratch my head. 'There are huge readability & brand issues. - Different color green - The green is too dark against the black - disco ball texture looks pixelated on a tiny phone screen. He added: 'A kinda dumb mistake.'"
"I didn't know it was a disco ball the entire time after the update!!! From the Home Screen it looked like a shield or something!!!"
"I thought it was stuck in that weird state of installing an update but not quite ready to launch yet."
Spotify released a temporary 20th-anniversary iPhone app logo featuring a dark green mirrored disco ball with sparkles. Many users reacted negatively, saying the design reduced readability and created brand issues. Some claimed the mirrored panels made the icon look like the app was loading or stuck installing an update. Others compared the logo to unrelated objects and criticized the change. Spotify acknowledged the complaints and stated the party-themed icon would be replaced when the lights go down. The regular Spotify icon is expected to return soon, with Spotify indicating glitter is not for everyday use.
