Back in 2020, Spotify introduced the collaborative playlists feature. It lets multiple users collaborate and craft a playlist together. From that point, they could keep an eye on it and maintain it as time goes on. Until now, users had limited control over the playlists.

Spotify is giving people more control over their collaborative playlists

Now, however, the company is addressing those limits. Some new additions are coming to Spotify to give users better control over their collaborative playlists. Firstly, the actual creator of the playlist will have the ability to add and remove people from the playlist. That’s really useful for people who want to control who has access to the playlist. The next feature is also for people who want to control who gets to be a part of the fun. You can set the playlist itself to either private or public. If it’s private, no one can see it or listen to it except for you. Also, you can grant people access to the playlist so that they can see it even if it’s private. If you want more control over your collaborative playlists, the features are rolling out this week, so you should expect them within the next couple of days. The report didn’t specify any specific operating systems, so they will most likely come out on both iOS and Android at the same time.
