Spotify has added a new feature that automatically generates an offline playlist for you based on your listening habits.
Announced by the audio streaming company on Thursday, the “Offline Backup” feature operates in addition to downloads on the platform (when you can download music, podcasts, or audiobooks for offline listening).
Offline Backup generates a playlist for listeners using queued and recently streamed tracks, as well as any tracks you’ve downloaded in Spotify. Like Spotify’s “daylist” feature, the playlist will constantly updating according to what you regularly listen to. Users can also filter the playlist by artist, mood, or genre.

If your phone or laptop is offline or on airplane mode, Offline Backup will appear automatically in the Home tab on Spotify.
If you can’t see it appearing on Spotify, make sure you’ve got the latest app update, have listened to at least five songs recently, and have enabled offline listening — you can find this in Settings > “Data Saving and offline” > “Offline access”.
It’s the latest update from Spotify, which most recently made its daylists available to all free and paying Premium users (and in 14 new languages), and expanded global access to its AI Playlists for Premium users.
