Spotify Wrapped 2022 is live, folks! Yes, the annual digest of what you stream is here, and Spotify's changing it up to show you something about yourself. We're as excited as ever to see the top songs, artists and podcasts we listened to this year, and we've got everything you need to know below.
Spotify Wrapped is an annual treat for users of the music streaming service, as it shows you what you listened to, how you rank among the world in listening to certain musicians and more. For the 2022 edition, Spotify has added a new features, such as an in-app game and a special "aura reader" to visualize your music moods.
Here's a guide on Spotify Wrapped 2021 and how to access yours.
How to get your Spotify Wrapped 2022
To find Spotify Wrapped 2022, simply open the Spotify app. You should get a big splash interface that shows you how to open your Wrapped. And not just a playlist of the songs in your Wrapped.
If you don't see Spotify Wrapped 2022, you can get there pretty easily.
1. Open spotify.com/wrapped on your iPhone or Android phone — make sure you've got Spotify downloaded.
2. Tap Download Spotify. Yes, that doesn't sound like the right button, but it works for us. If that doesn't work, try the "Listen to 2022 highlights here" button — it didn't work for us, but, hey, it might work for you.
That will launch the Spotify app on your phone and take you straight to the Spotify Wrapped hub — which is basically like a story.
If you don't have the mobile app, you will see a prompt to download Spotify.
Spotify Wrapped 2022: The Personality Test
When I opened up my Spotify Wrapped, I was greeted with a lot of the standard features — more on those below. But the latest trick up Spotify's sleeve is a personality test, complete with a 4-letter acronym to describe your listening habits.
I was labeled "The Devotee," with Wrapped noting, "When you love an artist, you really love them. You're quick to support new releases and play your favorite tracks on repeat." I'm an FNLU, which stands for Familiarity, Newnesss, Loyalty and Uniqueness.
Spotify Wrapped features
Spotify Wrapped started off by showing my top five genres (Soundtracks, it turns out, are a genre). Then, it gave descriptions for the moods of music I've been listening to, such as "You embraced the night with Hardcore Empowering Angst."
Then, Spotify showed off the total number of minutes listened over the year, and how that compares to other users in my country.
After that, Spotify displays your top song — it's "Training Montage" by The Mountain Goats for me — along with how many times you've listened to it, and the day with the most listens, followed by your top 5 songs overall, top artists and the personality test result.
