Hey there! So, you know when you’re listening to Spotify and you accidentally play a song that you really don’t want showing up in your recently played list? Yeah, it happens to the best of us. But don’t worry, I’ve got you covered! I’m going to walk you through the step-by-step process of clearing your recently played on Spotify, so you can keep your guilty pleasures or embarrassing music choices hidden away from prying eyes.
Step 1: Open the Spotify app
To clear your recently played on Spotify, you’ll need to open the Spotify app on your device. Whether you’re using it on your smartphone, tablet, or computer, make sure you’re logged in and ready to go.
Step 2: Go to your Library
Next, navigate to the “Library” tab in the bottom menu of the Spotify app. This is where you’ll find all your saved playlists, albums, and songs.
Step 3: Access your Recently Played
Now that you’re in the Library section, look for the “Recently Played” section. It should be located near the top of the screen. Tap or click on it to access your recently played songs.
Step 4: Clear your Recently Played
Here comes the magic trick! To clear your recently played on Spotify, you’ll need to click on the three horizontal dots (also known as the “More” button) located next to the song or album you want to remove. Once you click on it, a pop-up menu will appear.
In the pop-up menu, you’ll see the option “Remove from Recently Played.” Click on it to remove the song or album from your recently played list. Voila! It’s as simple as that.
Step 5: Repeat as needed
If you have multiple songs or albums that you want to remove from your recently played list, simply repeat Step 4 for each item. Take your time to go through your recently played and remove anything you don’t want others to see.
A word of caution:
It’s important to note that clearing your recently played on Spotify only removes the songs or albums from your device. If you want to prevent these songs from being visible on other devices or accounts linked to your Spotify, you’ll need to remove them separately.
Conclusion
And there you have it! With just a few simple steps, you can clear your recently played on Spotify and keep your music choices private. Now you can jam out to whatever guilty pleasure you want without worrying about it showing up for all the world to see. Happy listening!
