See How Many Times You Played a Song on Spotify (2025 Guide)
Many users of official Spotify want to know the specific count of how many times they’ve played their favorite songs. While official Spotify does not offer an easily accessible, real-time counter for individual track plays within the app itself, there are several methods to gauge, estimate, and uncover your most-played tracks.
Here is a breakdown of how you can find your listening stats on official Spotify for 2025.
Tracking your play count helps you understand your listening habits and favorite tracks.

Method 1: The Official Yearly Summary (Spotify Wrapped)
The most accurate and official data on your personal listening habits comes from Spotify Wrapped, which is released at the end of every year.
How to Access Spotify Wrapped:
- Open the official Spotify app.
- Tap the Search icon at the bottom.
- Type in “Wrapped“.
Spotify Wrapped provides a comprehensive yearly summary showing your top songs, top artists, and occasionally gives you the exact number of times you listened to your absolute top song. You can access playlists like “Your Top Songs 2024” (or similar year) which list your most played songs, though the exact play count often disappears once the new year starts.
If your play counts are not updating properly, it might be due to app glitches.
Follow this tutorial on why Spotify is glitching and how to fix it.
Crucial Note: Spotify does not offer detailed, song-by-song playback stats after the Wrapped season ends. Once the new year starts, this specific, hyper-detailed data becomes largely unavailable within the app.
Method 2: Finding Your Most Played Songs (Liked Songs Trick)
While this method won’t give you a number count, it’s a quick, in-app trick to bring up a list of the songs you’ve played the most recently, often serving as a rolling “Most Played” list. This works well on both Spotify for iOS and Android.
Checking your song stats can help improve playlists and recommendations.
Spotify tips
Step-by-Step Guide:
- Open the official Spotify app on your phone.
- Look at the bottom right of your screen and tap on Library.
- In your library, select the Liked Songs playlist at the top.
- Inside the Liked Songs playlist, look for an option at the top (it might be a button or an option within a menu) to Add Songs.
- Tapping this will often bring up a list of your Most Played Tracks on Spotify as suggestions.
You can scroll through this list to discover which songs you’ve played the most and quickly add them to your Liked Songs playlist if they aren’t already there.
Method 3: Estimating Overall Usage (Screen Time/Digital Wellbeing)
If you only want a general, rough estimate of how much time you spend on the app (not per song), you can use your phone’s built-in tracking features.
How to Check App Usage Time:
- Open your phone’s Settings.
- Tap on Screen Time (iOS) or Digital Wellbeing (Android).
- Check the App and Website Activity.
- Select the official Spotify app.
This will show your daily or weekly average usage time on Spotify. While it won’t break down data per song or artist, it gives a clear estimate of how much time you spend consuming music via the app.
What About Seeing a Song’s Total Global Streams?
If you are instead wondering how many times a song has been played globally (across all users), that number is usually visible directly on the track listing.
How to See Global Streams:
- Open the official Spotify app and search for a specific artist or song. (For example, searching for an artist like Drake).
- Click on the song’s listing.
- For popular tracks, a large number indicating the total global streams will be displayed just underneath the song name. (e.g., “151 million streams”).
This number reflects the total streams for the song across all official Spotify users, not just your personal play count.
Whether you’re using the standard app or a version obtained through other means, such as the Spotify APK, your personal listening history and official data are managed centrally by the platform.
Accurate play count tracking works best on the official or supported versions of Spotify.
