Songs listened not appearing on Recently played and not counted in Wrapped?

[ulubooh]

I spend a lot of time listening to music in group session with a colleague at work. The songs we've listened to haven't appeared in the Recently played section and that made us wonder whether or not those have been completely ignored in Spotify Wrapped as well. Could it be?

Hey there @ulubooh,

Thanks for the post.

We'll do our best to clear things up. Songs played in a Group Session will end up in everyone’s Recently Played but only the host’s recommendations will be affected. If you start the session with your account and your friend adds songs to the play queue, these will influence your recommendations and Wrapped.

Note that if you have Private Session switched on, nothing you listen to will influence your Wrapped, recommendations and won't be added to your Recently played. The same goes for songs you've listened to for less than 30 seconds, before skipping.

Hope this clears things up. 

If none of the songs you listen to end up in your Recently played and you don't have Private sessions switched on, you might want to do a clean reinstall of your app and wipe your app data/cache, as this issue might be caused by some corrupted app files.

Cheers.

But are they counted, even if we can't see them immediately in recently played? Are those steamed songs during the group session counted in total played numbers?

Hey @Vasile-PH,

Thanks for reaching out.

Yes, even if the songs don't show up in your Recently played section, they'll still get counted in your streaming history. 

We hope this helps. Let us know if you have other questions.

Hi, this issue is still persisting. Whenever we listen in a Jam, my streaming history doesn't reflect the songs we've listened to. Both in-app and in spotistats, the songs don't show up. What have you done to resolve this issue?

I’m having the exact same problem. I tried logging out and in twice, and it also still persists.
