Can I see who liked my Spotify playlist?
Unfortunately not. Spotify does not have the feature that allows you to view who has liked your playlists or even followed them. You can however see how many people have linked it by opening the playlist. If you really want to know about the likes situation, you can ask your friends who follow you directly or, you can also check your friend’s profile. If they followed and liked your playlist, it will appear on their public playlists option.
Furthermore, there are several sites that claim to help you know who liked your playlists. But, they are not genuine and are a scam. So, it is suggested to avoid those sites.
How to See Who Liked Your Spotify Playlist?
Even though Spotify does not allow you to see who liked your personal playlist, it does let you check how many people have liked your Spotify playlist. Since there is no news of Spotify adding the feature we are looking for soon, it is our best option. You can see how many people liked your Spotify playlist by:
- Open Spotify and go to ‘Your library‘ section.
- Tap on the playlist whose likes count you wish to view.
- Check the total likes count under the name of each playlist.
In this way, you can see how many people liked your Spotify playlist.
How to See Who Follows Your Spotify Playlist?
As mentioned above there is no built in feature to view who liked your Spotify playlist. Though, there might be one slightly possible hack of viewing your followers and seeing if anyone new joined. Watching hours of YouTube tutorials and reading numerous verified articles, I realized that it is not a sure and reliable hack but if you are really curious and want to know about it anyhow, there is no loss in trying this.
What you can do is check your previous playlist’s number of likes and followers and compare it with the latest ones. Also, remember that it is not a sure hack and that everyone who follows you might not have liked that playlist and everyone that liked the playlist might not follow you. To see who follows your Spotify playlist, follow the given steps:
- Log into your Spotify account on Phone or Pc.
- Click on the ‘Settings‘ icon.
- Select the ‘View Profile’ option.
- There, you will be able to see the list of your playlists with number of followers in each.
This only shows who is following your playlist and you can compare the followers of our playlists to get an idea of who liked them.
Will Spotify Add the Feature to View Who Liked Your Playlist?
There is no sure answer to this. It has been about a decade since 2013 when Spotify removed its feature to see who liked your Spotify playlist. Thousands of users worldwide have requested the platform to bring that old function back. But as of 2019, Spotify announced that they have not decided anything on that topic and that they are not planning to implement it anytime soon.
This suggests that it might be years before they add back this feature to the platform. It seems like they removed this feature to ensure maximum safety of Spotify listeners. Over 22,000 users have requested Spotify to bring back its feature. You too can comment a feature request to the Spotify Communication Board if you really want it added back to the Platform.
Conclusion
Thus, since you cannot in any manner with proper proof see who liked your Spotify playlist, you can still compare and see the number of likes through the hacks mentioned above and hope that Spotify re introduces this feature back to the platform so that us, as users can see who liked our playlists.
Hope this article was helpful in clearing your doubts. Do leave comments if you face any problems.
