From left to right the navbar features: Home, Browse, Search, Radio and Your Library buttons. The bar sits under the Now Playing bar when minimised and leaves the rest of the screen for browsing.<\/p>\n<p>This change doesn&#8217;t apply to Spotify&#8217;s Android app, however Android has been a far bigger adopter of the three-lined hamburger menu, whereas Apple has always been a navbar type of OS. Even Android seem to be moving away from the menu now, in March Google told app developers to use navigation bars instead of hamburger buttons.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10123\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10123\" style=\"width: 1440px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10123 lazyload\" src=\"http:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/spotify-hamburger-menu.png\" alt=\"Spotify are keeping the hamburger menu (top left) on Android for now\" width=\"1440\" height=\"900\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/spotify-hamburger-menu.png 1440w, https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/spotify-hamburger-menu-577x361.png 577w, https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/spotify-hamburger-menu-700x438.png 700w, https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/spotify-hamburger-menu-1280x800.png 1280w, https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/spotify-hamburger-menu-1000x625.png 1000w, https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/spotify-hamburger-menu-800x500.png 800w\" sizes=\"auto\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10123\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff\"><em>Spotify are keeping the hamburger menu (top left) on Android for now<\/em><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The update is being rolled out today to those in the US, UK, Germany, Austria, and Sweden.
