Spotify has provided a new UI update for its desktop app. However, users and music enthusiasts are finding the new interface less interactive. So, as a solution to the issue, I will tell you how to revert to the classic Spotify desktop UI.
I have explained how to change to the old smooth UI of the popular music streaming app on all the major operating systems such as Windows, macOS, and Linux. With the new update, the search bar on the home page has shifted to the left-hand panel.
Previously with the classic old desktop UI of Spotify, you could easily access the native search box and instantly type your music query. That is not possible with the new interface for most users. So, by following this guide you can fix all that inconvenience and enjoy the previous interface.
