Delete individual songs from the Spotify queue

When playing a playlist, you cannot clear the queue entirely without stopping the playlist or playing another playlist. However, you can remove individual tracks from your queue..

• Smartphone app

1st step:

Click the queue icon in the lower right corner. This icon has three horizontal lines with a small play icon in the top left corner. Clicking this icon will take you to your Spotify queue. You will see a list of your currently playing songs as well as the next songs that Spotify will play. To remove a title from the queue on your PC or Mac, move the mouse pointer over a title in the queue and select the menu icon with the three dots to the right of it.

2nd step:

Then select the option " Remove from queue " in the menu . This will remove the song from your queue. If you remove such a track from your playlist queue, it will only be skipped - the track will remain in your playlist and can be played in the future.
