Observing how your musical preferences evolve over time while using Spotify is fun, and thanks to one website, you can view your listening patterns as a digital receipt. Spotify Wrapped is one of its best features. Spotify Wrapped compiles all of your listening data from the previous year at the end of each year, analyses it, and provides you with the most significant and intriguing statistics, such as the amount of time you spent listening to music, your favourite songs, newly discovered artists, etc. However, Wrapped only occurs once a year. What if you’d like to see these statistics more frequently?
Third-party websites are helpful in this situation. There are many entertaining methods to visualise your listening if you’re okay with sharing your Spotify activity with other websites. Simple breakdowns of your top tracks, artists, and genres are displayed via Stats For Spotify. While Festify turns your listening history into a festival lineup, Obscurify allows you to determine how obscure or random your musical tastes are. You might as well take advantage of the fact that Spotify is already tracking and recording your activities.
Receiptify is another website of this type. Receiptify, as the name suggests, analyses your Spotify activity and converts it into a receipt. Receiptify essentially shows you what your Spotify listening would look like if it were printed out on a Walgreens or Target receipt. Michelle Liu founded Receiptify in September 2020. Liu first announced it on Twitter with the following statement: “I spent the day developing this since I got the itch to create something today. depending on your most-played Spotify tunes, it creates a “receipt”:)).”
