Spotify Wrapped will compile your listening habits from 1 January 2022 to 31 October 2022, this means that any music you will have listened to in November will not go towards this year’s statistics and will be included next year.

Spotify users should be able to access their 2022 “wrap-up” in their app, it will showcase their top artist, most listened songs and most listened album in a variety of visual graphics which can be shared on social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and Twitter.
