Spotify will let you edit your Taste Profile to control your recommendations
Summary
Spotify Co-CEO Gustav Söderström announced a new feature, currently in beta, that will enable listeners to review and edit their Taste Profile, the core algorithm driving personalized recommendations like Discover Weekly and Spotify Wrapped. Initially rolling out to Premium users in New Zealand, the feature allows users to see all their listening data (music, podcasts, audiobooks) in one place and fine-tune future suggestions using natural language prompts to request more or less of certain vibes. This addresses long-standing user complaints about recommendations being skewed by shared accounts or incidental listening, such as music played for children or sleep sounds, which previously cluttered the profile and negatively impacted annual Wrapped results. Spotify plans to expand the feature to other markets in the coming weeks.
