Called “listening stats,” the feature lets you “relive your week in music in a fun, shareable snapshot.” It’s essentially a mini version of the highly anticipated Wrapped feature that rolls around toward the end of every year. Listening stats don’t seem to be quite as in-depth as Wrapped. Ans, since it’s very recent, you probably won’t get the “surprise” element of the annual wrap-up, but it’s still a fun glimpse into your favorite songs and artists.
Spotify explains that listening stats, available to both free and Premium users, not only show your top artists and songs from the past four weeks, but also allow you to build custom playlists inspired by what you listen to most. Additionally, every week’s listening stats will include a special highlight that showcases what makes your listening unique — a milestone such as listening minutes, a new discovery, or a fan moment.
Like Wrapped, there’s a social element as well, and you can share your stats or weekly highlights directly from the app with friends on Spotify through the new messaging feature or to Instagram, WhatsApp, and more.
To access your Spotify listening stats, tap your profile picture and look for the new tab. For me, it showed up under “What’s new” and above “Recents.” There weren’t any songs or podcasts in my stats yet, even though I’ve been listening, but I was encouraged to “Listen to some tunes, then check back later for your stats.”
Spotify says the feature is rolling out today, so if you don’t see it yet (it didn’t show up for one of my coworkers), you should soon.
