For keen Spotify music fans, chance is that you have met a song or some songs on Spotify that struck a chord, so you want to stream it or them again and again on headphones or speakers. But how?
In fact, in addition to playing, pausing and skipping music tracks as standard on Spotify, it also provides users with other functions, including Like/Dislike, Shuffle, Play Queue, Spotify Connect and the most important Repeat, which lets a song, album or playlist starts again when it ends. But no worry. To loop a song on Spotify, the Repeat function is available for users with Spotify Premium or free version of Spotify on its important platforms for desktop or mobile. Reading on to find out how.
Part 1. Can You Loop Songs on Spotify?
Yes, you can loop songs on Spotify, but it depends on your subscription and the device you're using. Spotify works differently on mobile and desktop for free and Premium users.
If you have a Premium subscription, you can easily loop any song on both your phone and computer. This means you can play your favorite song on repeat as many times as you want. It's one of the benefits of being a Premium user, giving you more control over your music.
For free users, the experience is different. On mobile, free listeners can only play music in shuffle mode for playlists and albums. This means you can't pick a specific song to loop. You can see the artists and tracks in a playlist, but you can't play any song on demand unless it's from a select number of "unlocked" playlists or on-demand content that Spotify occasionally offers to free users. This can be frustrating if you want to listen to the same song repeatedly.
On a computer, free users have a bit more freedom. You can choose specific songs to play and even loop them. This makes the desktop experience closer to what Premium users get on all devices. Next, we'll go over the steps to loop a song on both the mobile app and desktop version of Spotify.
Part 2. How to Loop a Song on Spotify
We'll show you how to loop a single song on Spotify, no matter where you find it. Whether you discover the song through Search, within a playlist, or in an album, you can easily set it to play on repeat.
-
For Desktop [Premium/Free]:
- On your Mac or PC, open the Spotify app.
- Select and stream the song you want to put on loop.
- Note the Repeat icon at the right side of the music control bar at the bottom.
- Double-click the Repeat icon to enable the "Repeat One" function. Ensure it is both marked with a "1" and green.
Tips: A single click on the Repeat icon loops the entire album or playlist, not a single song. Double-clicking enables the "Repeat One" function.
-
For Mobile [Premium]:
- Open the Spotify app on your smartphone.
- Find and play the song you want to loop. Use the search function or browse through playlists or albums.
- Tap on the 'Now Playing' bar at the bottom of the screen to expand it.
- Look for the Repeat icon, which looks like two arrows forming a circle, near the play button.
- Tap the Repeat icon once to loop the playlist or album, and tap it again to loop just the song. The icon will change to show a "1" and turn green.
Following these steps will allow you to loop your favorite songs easily on Spotify, whether you're using a desktop or mobile device.
