Spotify’s New Weekly ‘Wrapped’ Feature
▼ Summary
– Spotify has launched a new weekly “listening stats” feature that provides an overview of users’ recent music streaming habits.
– The feature shows users their most-listened-to artists and songs each week and creates curated playlists based on those results.
– Users can share their weekly stats on platforms like Instagram and WhatsApp and receive personalized highlights about their unique listening patterns.
– Listening stats are available to both free and premium Spotify users in over 60 regions and can be accessed via the profile menu.
– This follows Apple’s introduction of a monthly version of its annual Replay feature for Apple Music users last year.
Finding new ways to connect with your favorite music just got a whole lot easier. Spotify has rolled out a fresh weekly feature that offers a snapshot of your recent listening activity, functioning as a bite-sized version of its popular annual Wrapped summary. This new tool highlights your most-played artists and tracks over the past seven days and automatically generates custom playlists based on those preferences. You can look back at these statistics for up to a month before they refresh.
Similar to the year-end Wrapped experience, this update lets you share your weekly music highlights on social platforms such as Instagram and WhatsApp. Spotify mentions it will also spotlight a unique aspect of your listening, like discovering a new musician, celebrating a fan moment, or hitting a personal streaming milestone. Available to both free and premium subscribers in over sixty countries, the feature is found by tapping your profile picture inside the app.
While the weekly insights are not as comprehensive as the detailed annual Wrapped roundup, they provide a convenient method for keeping tabs on your evolving musical tastes. This development arrives after Apple Music introduced its own monthly Replay recap last year, which later became a standard part of the iOS experience.
