Music streaming services like Spotify have become an integral part of our lives. With its user-friendly interface, vast music library, and personalized recommendations, Spotify makes discovering and listening to music incredibly convenient.
As Spotify users, many of us have extensive playlists and we continue to add new tracks regularly. But sometimes you may want to look back and check when exactly you added a certain song to your playlist.
How to Find the Date You Added a Song to Your Spotify Playlist
Follow these simple steps to find the exact date you added a track to your Spotify playlist:
- Open the Spotify app or website on your laptop or desktop and log into your account
- On the left sidebar, locate the playlist you want to check and click on it
- Scroll through the playlist – you’ll notice a “Date added” column next to each track
- The date displayed here indicates when you added that song to this particular playlist
Once you access your Spotify account on a laptop or computer. The desktop app and web player both clearly show the addition date for each song in a playlist. So you can easily find the exact date you added any track.
Note that this date-added information is not visible in the Spotify mobile app. So if you only have your smartphone on hand, you won’t be able to check the specific date you added a song.
Spotify mobile app has a more limited set of features compared to the desktop and web versions. Finding the date you added tracks is one of the functions that is currently only available on laptops and desktops.
Alternative methods
If checking the exact addition date on the desktop isn’t currently an option, don’t worry – there are still a few ways to make an educated guess about when you likely added a song:
- Check if the song is a relatively new release – if so, you probably added it around its release date
- Think about what was going on in your life around the time you discovered that track
- See if a friend recommended the song and when
- Consider if you heard it on a show and look up when that episode aired
Making logical connections like these can help narrow down a reasonable timeframe of when you added the track, even without the specific date handy.
So while the Spotify mobile app doesn’t offer the date-added feature yet, you can still use contextual clues to estimate when you likely added a song to your playlist.
Conclusion
To find the specific date you added a song to your Spotify playlist use the desktop or web player. Without access to a laptop or computer, this is information you simply can’t view in the mobile app.
So if you ever have a burning desire to learn the backstory of a particular track in your playlist, remember to whip out your laptop. The date-added feature remains one of the few pieces of Spotify metadata accessible exclusively on desktop devices.
