Look no further than Spotify’s upcoming new fan-facing feature, the “Upcoming Releases” hub. This is a real breakthrough to improve the music discovery experience for our users! This innovative hub will provide personalized recommendations for future albums based on each individual’s listening history, helping users stay ahead of their favorite artists’ releases.
Infrastructure “Upcoming Releases” hub increases dwell time. It provides highly individualized recommendations that suit users’ musical tastes. It will showcase the best 10 global countdowns. These new rankings are evidence of which forthcoming releases are most hotly anticipated, as determined by ranking the number of pre-saves. These charts will be updated every Wednesday. In doing so, customers will always be up to date on the hottest new albums coming out.
Spotify has just launched a really cool new feature to help promote new releases. What’s more, users can now buy single audiobooks right inside the app! This exciting update allows users to see key pricing information in the dashboard and helps them quickly access external payment links. This development follows a U.S. judge’s ruling that ordered Apple to cease charging commissions on purchases made through iPhone applications, enabling Spotify to offer more flexible purchasing options.
Coincidentally, earlier this month, Spotify deployed its latest redesign to put listeners more in control of their listening environment and recommendations. Together, these updates deliver on Spotify’s goal to keep improving how users engage with the service.
