There’s much more than music on Spotify. The streaming service continues to grow with audiobooks and podcasts. And a new update is making it even easier to see what you’ve been enjoying.
Say Hello to the Recents Page
The Recents page will show everything you have listened to in the last 90 days, including music, podcasts, and audiobooks. It will also show anything you’ve saved.
It just takes a few taps to find Recents, which replaces the previous Listening History tab. After selecting your profile picture, tapRecentsin the sidebar. Spotify also says the information will appear in the Home feed.
Everything is listed in chronological order from the last 90 days. To better help you find something specific, you can filter byMusic,Podcasts, orAudiobooks. It’s easy to pick something and start listening once again.
An Easy Way to Find a Forgotten Song
The Recents page is something I’ve always wanted to see on Spotify. During the day, I often let music continue to play between different playlists. And I never seem to have time to look down at my iPhone and find out the title of the great song I listened to. I also save way too many albums and never seem to play them back later. It will be so nice to see what I listened to up to 90 days ago in just a few seconds.
With Spotify’s continued growth, the company is taking time to improve all parts of the service. Last week, Spotify announced a number ofnew features being tested to improve the audiobook experience. Some of those include video clips for audiobooks and a Follow-Along experience that shows time-synchronized material while listening to a title.
Spotify also recently announced a new audiobook deal that willadd more than 1,000 titles for listeners.
