Spotify Wrapped is just around the corner, and music lovers are eager to showcase their favorite tracks from the year on social media.
On Thursday, Spotify informed users through a pop-up notification in the app that “2024 is almost a wrap,” urging them to update the app in preparation for the upcoming release.
Once Spotify Wrapped is ready, users will receive another pop-up alert upon opening the app. The streaming service is also expected to share the release date on its social media channels.
When Will Spotify Wrapped Be Released?
Spotify has not yet confirmed the exact release date for the 2024 Wrapped, but previous patterns suggest it will be soon. In recent years, the launch date has been moved earlier.
In 2023 and 2022, Spotify Wrapped was released on November 30. In 2021 and 2020, the release occurred on December 1, while in 2019 it was December 5 and December 6 in 2018.
What Is Spotify Wrapped?
Introduced in 2016, Spotify Wrapped is an annual feature that compiles user listening data into a personalized summary of their most-played music.
Typically, Spotify Wrapped highlights users’ top songs, artists, and genres, encouraging them to share their unique Wrapped experiences online. The data is collected from January 1 through the fall of the same year to create each user’s summary.
When Does Spotify Wrapped Stop Tracking?
Since Spotify Wrapped is launched before December 31, users may wonder when the tracking of their listening habits concludes. While Spotify hasn’t specified the cutoff date for this year, it previously indicated that tracking would continue through October 31.
What About Apple Music Replay?
In 2019, Apple introduced Apple Music Replay, a feature similar to Spotify Wrapped. This year, Apple Music Replay began offering monthly summaries that highlight users’ listening habits at the end of each month.
As of now, a release date for the 2024 Apple Music Replay has not been announced.
