When Does Spotify Wrapped Stop Tracking and Start for 2024?
|
October 3rd, 2023 by Terri Pinyerd

The platform begins tracking your listening habits from January 1st to October 31st.

 

Within this timeframe, all Spotify tracks, albums, and playlists are taken into consideration to calculate your music taste and generate your Spotify wrapped stats.

 

The annual feature is then available for users between December 1st - 31st.

Factors That Influence Your Spotify Wrapped Data

 

what counts towards spotify wrapped

 

While Spotify isn't entirely transparent on how it calculates a user's listening personality, Spotify users can expect to have the following elements taken into consideration:

 

  • Songs

  • Albums

  • Genres

  • Podcasts

 

Keep in mind that Spotify wrapped includes only media listened to outside of Private mode. Songs, albums, and podcasts listened to when Private mode is toggled on do not impact a user's music personality data.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

 

Does Wrapped only work with the Spotify mobile app?

Spotify takes into consideration all qualifying media listened to within the Spotify platform on both the desktop site and the mobile app.

 

However, you will only be able to access your Spotify wrapped data via the Android or iOs app - not the desktop app or website.

Do podcasts count for Spotify Wrapped?

Podcasts will apply towards your total listened time in Spotify Wrapped.

Do songs listened to from November 1st to December 31st count?

Any listening activity from November 1st to December 31st is not tracked and will not be included in the next year's Spotify Wrapped data.
