audiobook for family member

[Tgregory]

My wife and I share a premium family account. I am able to access audiobooks but they are not available to her? How can I get her access?

Hey @Tgregory,

Thanks for coming to the Community.

Right now, Audiobooks in Premium is available only on select plans and is limited to plan managers. Each Duo/Family subscription only has one plan manager, the rest are members.

This means if a user joined a Duo or Family plan as a member, they won’t have access to the free listening time, but this is something that will be explored in the future to allow Family and Duo users to have more flexibility from their audiobooks access 🙂

For more info, you can also visit the following Newsroom article: https://newsroom.spotify.com/2023-10-03/audiobooks-included-in-spotify-premium/.

Hope this clears things up!

Thanks for the helpful response. I wonder what on earth is spotifys strategy with this. I’d sooner get her her own audible account than pay for ANOTHER premium Spotify account that she could manage. Feels a little backhanded…
