Spotify has had a big year: they hit more than 80 million paid subscribers, launched a much-improved new free plan, and even IPO-ed. If you’ve been a Premium subscriber for a while, you might not have noticed a lot of the other small changes and features that got added. Here’s what’s new.
Better Recommendations and Personalized Playlists
At How-To Geek, we’re huge fans of Spotify’s recommendation engine and the playlists it generates. While it won’t always knock the ball out of the park, it’s generally pretty good at surfacing cool songs you’ll like or songs you love but haven’t heard in a while. And the more you listen, the better it gets.

Spotify has started working recommendations into other areas of the app like search and artist radios. You’ll also start to see personalized recommendations in Spotify’s theme playlists soon.
Overall, the recommendation algorithm keeps improving, so if you haven’t checked out Discover Weekly or your Daily Mixes in a while, now might be the time.
An Increased Download Limit
Spotify used to cap the number of songs you could save for offline listening to 3,333 on three different devices. They’ve now upped it to 10,000 tracks per device on five devices. It’s an excellent change for heavy playlist downloaders like me.
Unfortunately, your library of saved tracks is still limited to 10,000 songs, but hopefully, Spotify will lift that—completely arbitrary—limit soon.
