Have you ever listened to a song on Spotify but never found it again? This has happened many times to me, especially when I’m driving and can’t keep an eye on it. Thankfully, this new feature from Spotify will make sure you never lose a song again.
Spotify has announced that it’s adding a new “Recent” page to the app that remembers everything you’ve listened to in the past 90 days, including music, podcasts and audiobooks (via Engadget). Think of it as your YouTube watch history, but for everything on Spotify.
The new page is available to both free and Premium members, and replaces the old “Listening History” page which was not very extensive. The new Latest page is rolling out now for Android and iOS devices.

How to get a new Latest page on Spotify
Your listening history is arranged in chronological order
Spotify
To find the Latest page on Spotify, simply open the app on your phone, tap your profile picture in the top left corner of your screen and tap Recent. From there you’ll see all the music you’ve listened to in the past 90 days in chronological order. You can also find your latest songs in Spotify’s home feed by scrolling down a bit.
When you’re on the Recents page, your history is edited day by day. All the songs you listen to on any given day are listed under “songs playing.” If the song you are listening to is in your playlist, it will show you that you listened to that playlist and that song that day. The same goes for albums too. If you’re listening to an entire album or part of it, the album will appear along with all the songs you’ve listened to.
After checking it out for myself, I was impressed with the way Spotify designed its new Recents page. It’s easy to follow and neatly organized, making finding a song very easy. Spotify has been busy lately adding new features, adding an in-app cover creator, and making it easier to add songs you’ve heard on Instagram to your favorite songs. The highly anticipated music giant Spotify Wrapped 2024 is just around the corner.
