Adding More than a Few Artists
Correction to my Original Question
It is possible to continue searching, and adding selected artists to a station. So you aren't limited by your first search, as I thought previously.
I searched for Jimi Hendrix, and a few artists similar to him appeared when I clicked on his name. So I added one or two of those.
But is there a way to search again, and add more artists to that station?
Or are you confined to the ones similar to your original search?
just wondering...

Stations
Hi,
This is a separate app, but uses the same credentials.
The main difference is an easier way to create radio style stations. It starts with a favorites station, along with some of your most listened artists and genres. You can add similar artists to the list, or create new stations altogether. Stations were a feature much lacking in the main Spotify app. Unless counting on the Daily Mix and Made for you playlists.
The algorithm will also continue to track your listening habits. Helping to make your stations smarter
one more thing
if I play some music on spotify (original app) does it has butterfly effect that let the Spotify Stations change or add new station as well?
No Stations app in the South African App Store
Hi
Any idea if/when the app will come to other countries?
When you select your station,
When you select your station, hold it down to activate it. Then there should be a search button. Search for the artist you want, double tap, and it should select it. At the very bottom of the screen is a next button. You can click on that and it should add it.
Does that make sense? I think I rambled.

Yes, it connects to your account.
The difference is that the main app lets you play certain songs, and make playlists. The stations app is like pandora almost. You can't skip back, but you can skip forward. Stations also has been spitting more good songs lately. I think the main app's algorithm is broken. It plays very little new stuff.

Accessibility Comments
This is very accessible with voice over.
The buttons are clearly labeled.
Each station created by the user has a tab. As you swipe through the tabs, your stations will change. This used to bother me, but it functions like live radio. So whatever station is selected will be playing.
You add artists to stations by doing the following.
Scroll or select your station, double tap and hold until it brings up the station. From here, you can add or remove artists. So far, I can only add artists. I don't know if this a voice over issue, or that feature is still unavailable. The remove button that does appear when you bring up the station removes the whole station.
Remember, this is a new feature.
