<div id="readability-page-1"><div>            <div><p>Our long international nightmare is over: Spotify has quietly restored the original 2D app icon for the iPhone after about a month-long takeover by a disco-ball-ified version of the logo, which many users had expressed a strong dislike for.</p>    <p>  On Thursday (June 11), an update to the Spotify iOS app switched the icon back to the well-known logo users are familiar with. That did away with the glowing green mirrorball icon for the Spotify app for Apple devices that it introduced the second week of May.    </p>       <p>  The disco-ball icon for the Spotify iOS app was meant to be a fun celebration of its first 20 years, tied to the “Spotify 20: Your Party of the Year(s)” mobile-only in-app experience that provides a look back at your music listening history. And it was always intended to be temporary.    </p>     <p>  Some people had defended Spotify’s disco-ball as a festive and fun — and an example of a big company taking a creative risk with its well-known logo. But many Spotify users voiced displeasure at the change-up, with some complaining that the disco ball looked pixelated on a small phone screen and, generally, was visually displeasing. </p>    <p>  “The person who designed this logo should be fired,” one user on X groused. The official Spotify account responded to them on May 17 by saying: “We know glitter is not for everyone. Our temp glow up ends soon. Your regularly scheduled Spotify icon returns next week.” It took a little longer, but now the Spotify app is back to the way it used to look.</p>    <p>The whole episode is a reminder to product designers everywhere that users can be extremely sensitive to the seemingly smallest changes — and Spotify clearly had not anticipated that a teeny-tiny disco ball drop would prove to be unpopular.</p>                 </div>                          </div></div>

<p>Spotify 已將其 iPhone 應用圖標恢復為原始的 2D 設計，結束了為期一個月的與有爭議的迪斯科球標誌的實驗。此次臨時更改旨在慶祝 Spotify 成立 20 週年，但因視覺效果不佳和像素化而遭到用户的強烈反對。儘管最初為這一創意風險辯護，Spotify 還是承認了用户的不滿，並於 6 月 11 日恢復了熟悉的綠色標誌</p>
