The best part about this change is that before, it was overly difficult to get back to those main navigation buttons if you had started digging into albums or playlists. The menu that slide out from the left was buried away, inaccessible unless you hit the "back" button to retrace your steps. It was frustrating that the side menu wasn't universally accessible, but this update changes all of that.

Spotify can still be a rather confusing app at times: "home," "browse" and "discover" all have plenty of duplicate content, for example, but this makes things a bit cleaner for sure. And a complicated user experience is just about par for the course these days -- Just ask anyone who's spent time with Apple Music or SoundCloud Go.
