Spotify's new feature is like the ultimate Throwback Thursday
It's available now, for both Premium and free customers.
All Spotify customers should now have a free gift. Whether you're a Premium paying subscriber, or just piggyback off the free tier, it doesn't matter – the feature is available to you now, and it's like the ultimate Throwback Thursday.
Think of it as a birthday treat, from it to us. Spotify was founded 20 years ago, although it wasn't made publicly available until a few years later. And this gift takes us down memory lane.
It reveals all sorts of historical information about your Spotify usage, like the first track you streamed, your most-listened-to artist, total number of minutes spent on the platform over the years, what you did on your first day using it, and so on. Think of it as Wrapped for your entire time using Spotify.
There's also a little quiz on your music streaming habits, so you can see how well you know your usage.
If you're ready for a trip down memory lane, check your Spotify app now – the feature should arrive automatically, but you might need to update the app to give it a nudge. Anyone else worried to know how many hours they've spent on the service?
