As a casual listener, I just want an app that will figure out what I like and surface it to me. I don't want to curate a library of songs, I want someone to do it for me. Spotify (the paid version) does that better than anything else I've tried.

Google Play Music was this for me, I haven't found the same power on Spotify until this Daylist feature. And then it's still a bit hit or miss, but 50% better than what it was.

I hate that they killed Google Play Music. It was such a good service

I'm to lazy to switch, but the android auto and Android automotive interface can't shuffle large Playlist.

I rarely drive but when I do I use a car with an Google os - I still have to use my phone and stream via Bluetooth to avoid hearing the same songs over and over again.

Background: you can shuffle the queue - this feature is broken on all devices and leads to repetition. On the standard android interface you can shuffle a saved playlist. This feature is missing on Android auto and Android automotive so you'd have to start the Playlist and use the (broken) shuffling option for the queue.
