Spotify tests vertical scrolling for Podcasts!

Spotify is testing vertical scrolling for users listening to Podcasts. This feature is already available on TikTok videos and Instagram Reels videos. The feature, which makes it easier to navigate on the platform, will provide users with a more comfortable experience.

Spotify vertical scrolling feature will take 60 seconds of Podcasts and present them to users in vertical transitions. Spotify will use artificial intelligence trained on 100,000 hours of audio to determine which parts of recordings should be automatically shown based on leaks. It is not yet clear when the feature in the testing phase will arrive on a stable basis.

The company also made the following statements on the subject:

“We routinely run a series of tests to improve our user experience at Spotify. Some of these tests pave the way for our broader user experience, while others serve only as an important learning function. We have no further news to share at this time.”
