What’s happened? The newly announced “apps you can chat with right inside ChatGPT” feature is making its way to Spotify. Users of the music streaming platform can now link their account with ChatGPT to get personalized recommendations on music and podcasts to listen to.
- This new feature is available for users of both Spotify free and premium services.
- To link your Spotify account to the AI chatbot, simply mention “Spotify” in your ChatGPT conversation and accept to connect your account.
- During your sessions with the AI chatbot, you can ask for music or podcast recommendations, which will be linked back to your Spotify app.
Why is this important? Sometimes finding songs or playlists that fit your current mood is difficult. With help from ChatGPT, you can now use a prompt to describe the type of music you want to listen to at any given moment.

- Spotify Premium users can use well-detailed prompts to describe what they want to listen to, hence getting a more personalized selection.
- You can’t access ChatGPT in the Spotify app – you’ll need to go to the ChatGPT app or website for these AI recommendations.
