Spotify just rolled out a batch of updates that playlist obsessives have been waiting a long time for. The biggest one is playlist folders finally coming to mobile. This feature has existed on desktop for years, but mobile users never had it.
Now you can group your playlists by mood, activity, or genre right from your phone, and you can even nest folders inside other folders if your organizational habits run deep. Playlist folders are available now for all users globally, no subscription required.
These updates are a noticeable departure from Spotify’s recent wave of AI-heavy feature drops, which included AI-generated daily briefings and personalized podcasts, in addition to AI-produced song covers and remixes. Yesterday, Spotify also added the ability to clip and share your favorite podcast moments directly to social media.
Sometimes the most satisfying updates are the ones that simply make the app work the way you always wanted. Make sure your Spotify app is up to date to get access to everything right away.
