Spotify separates music and podcasts with ‘Your Library’ update

This distinction between music and podcasts is clearly a trend at the moment. Apple, for example, is set to propose two distinct applications for access to audio content.

The latest update to the Spotify mobile app brings changes to the “Your Library” tab for Premium account holders, separating music and podcasts.

Spotify is introducing an updated “Your Library” tab for Premium users, offering quicker and easier access to favourite content. The new layout also aims to help users get started and stay up-to-date with podcasts on Spotify in a smooth, customised experience.

Music and podcasts now each have three distinct sections for managing content: playlists, artists, albums for music, and episodes, downloads and shows for podcasts. This updated library also gets a new design, notably with larger album artwork and easy toggling between the two sections.

For the time being, only Premium users can enjoy this new layout.

Spotify is available to download free from Google Play (Android) and Apple’s App Store (iOS)
