How to Get Your Spotify Pie Chart
Learn how to get your Spotify Pie Chart so you can take a look at your listening habits and discover new music.
Widely-used applications have provided their users with year-end recaps for some time, giving insight into the past year’s activities. From Facebook’s Year in Review to Twitch’s Recap, looking back on the past year can be an eye-opening experience. One of the more interesting sectors to take this up is music, and Spotify is leading the charge as the most widely used music app.
Spotify Wrapped is a general year-in-review playlist showing many different data points for its users. It highlights stats such as time listened, artists listened to, and top artists and songs. One independent developer took it a step further, though, and it’s become a bit of a trend. Spotify Pie is a web app created by Darren Huang, a student at UCLA. The app analyzes your songs and data and turns them into a pie chart. It’s sort of like Spotify Wrapped, but simpler and accessible anytime.
What is Spotify Pie?
Spotify Pie is a web app hosted on GitHub and created by Darren Huang. The app analyzes your listening data from Spotify and makes a pie chart for your most listened to artists and genres. The app hooks into Spotify’s API and requires you to sign in and authorize it, but it only uses your listening history to gather the data and create your pie chart.
How to Get Your Spotify Pie Chart
To get your Spotify Pie Chart:
