Spotify’s Daylist playlist has proved to be a phenomenal success for the music streaming platform. And now, thanks to Spotify expanding Daylist into more countries and multiple languages, everyone (with a Spotify account) will be able to see what all the fuss is about.
Spotify Expands Daylist to Cater to Everyone
At the start of 2024, Spotify launched a new playlist called “Daylist”; an ever-evolving playlist that’s personalized for each person. Now, after months of only being available in around 70 countries and only in English, Daylist is getting the expansion its success warranted.
As announced on For the Record, Spotify is expanding Daylist to all 180-plus markets where Spotify is available. What’s more, Daylist will be available in a host of new languages, including Arabic, Catalan, French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese, Spanish, and Turkish.
What this means is that if you have a Spotify account (whether Free or Premum) and can access the app, you can check out Daylist. The added support for languages other than English means that the unique titles (more on those later) will appear in your native language.
An Ever-Evolving Playlist to Suit the Time of Day
For the uninitiated reading this, Spotify’s Daylist is a hyper-personalized playlist that evolves throughout the day. In a nutshell, Spotify identifies the kind of music you listen to at specific times of the day, and builds the playlist to reflect those listening habits.
This leads to very specific (and at times downright odd) titles popping up. For example, when opening my Daylist to capture screenshots for this post, I was presented with “Flannel 90s Rock Afternoon”. Artists inspiring that title include Foo Fighters, Pearl Jam, and Audioslave. Which, according to Spotify’s algorithms, is what I like listening to on a typical Wednesday afternoon.
The beauty of Daylist is that if you don’t like what songs it contains, you only have to wait a few hours for it to update. The playlist even tells you when the next update will occur, which definitely aids in making you return again and again.
The Titles Alone Keep Me Coming Back for More
To be perfectly honest, the titles alone are enough to make me check Daylist at least once a day, if not more. And if you find a particularly good title/daylist, you can both save it as a new playlist, and share it with others on social media.
To access your Spotify Daylist, either head to spotify.com/daylist, search “Daylist” in the app, or head to your Made for You hub and find it under the Uniquely Yours heading. But be warned, that once you’ve viewed it once, you’ll be hooked on checking it out regularly.
