Spotify Wrapped: How to see your top songs and music for 2019

As it has done in the past, Spotify has created Wrapped 2019, a personalized way for Premium subscribers to take a deep dive into the music that shaped their year. With insights on which tracks were your most-streamed, the tool also highlights other cool stats like your favorite artists, albums, podcasts, and how much time you spent listening.

Previous Wrapped features were only available on the web, via a custom website. While it’s still available on the web, this year Spotify embedded the Wrapped stats in the Spotify mobile app, making it way easier to find and use. There’s also a new feature for folks who love to share: Share cards let you tell the world what you were into for 2019 via Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Snapchat.

  • Open the Spotify app on your smartphone or tablet.
  • You’ll find the Wrapped 2019 shortcut on the home tab as well as inside the search tab.
  • Swipe through the screens to see all of your stats.
  • On the last screen, you’ll see the option to share your Wrapped stats on social media.

All of the personalized insights are just for Spotify Premium members. However, if you’re not a Premium subscriber, you can still enjoy Wrapped 2019. It won’t show you personalized results, but you’ll be greeted by playlists dedicated to the top tracks, artists, and groups of 2019 for your specific country.

And, because we’re at the end of a decade as well as the end of a year, Wrapped 2019 is even more in-depth, giving you a peek at the most streamed songs and artists for the previous 10 years. Spotify has also whipped up some fun, themed playlists with a 10-year retrospective vibe, like The Ones We Slept On, 10 Years Of Heartache, The Party Hits of the 2010s, and 10 Summers You Won’t Forget.

Not a Spotify Premium member? If you’re an AT&T customer you may be able to get it for free.

Spotify is one of the biggest platforms for listening to streaming music for good reason. It has more than 100 million songs, 6 million podcasts, and 350,000 audiobooks. This music streaming service is one of the most popular options out there, beating out both Apple Music and Amazon Music. However, Spotify does use ads for users listening for free. Thankfully there is an option to eliminate ads entirely.

Spotify has several tiers of Premium membership which deliver ad-free listening for a price. An individual membership is available for $12 each month, meanwhile you can snag a 2-person Spotify Premium Duo account for $17 monthly, or a Spotify Premium Student account for $6 each month. Families also have options built for them. The Spotify Basic Family account is $17 monthly, while a Spotify Premium Family account is $20.

How to master your equalizer settings for the perfect sound

While most people will simply flip on the radio or load up Spotify to listen to music, audiophiles like to dig a bit deeper and customize their experience. This often comes in the form of adjustments to the equalizer, which offers the freedom to tweak every aspect of the sound booming out of headphones or speakers. Even some streaming services now have built-in EQs, giving you more ways than ever to play with your music and find something that best fits your ears.

Tinkering with the equalizer can be daunting to newcomers, as there are tons of cryptic settings you can manipulate. And if you mess with the wrong one, your sound quality might take a nasty hit. Thankfully, learning the basics isn't too difficult.

Spotify adds music videos for Premium users in a handful of countries

Spotify today announced that it's bringing music videos (ask your parents, kids) to the streaming music service. With some caveats, however.

First is that this is somehow all in "beta," though it's not exactly clear what that means. It's not like music videos are new. Or streaming video is new. It could be that the catalog of music videos is said to be "limited," so maybe Spotify is just testing the waters before it spends more money on more music videos. But Spotify says you'll be able to watch vids from artists like Ed Sheeran, Doja Cat, and Ice Spice, among others. Spotify does say "In this beta launch, we’ll continue to innovate and iterate based on feedback from both users and artists."
