My Question or Issue

Hi folks, is it possible to exclude audiobooks and any comparable content from my recommended music? For example when I listen to my weekly mix or something else recommended, and after the fourth song it suddenly plays chapter 19 of some random audiobook I’ve listened to, that’s really annoying.

Would be great if there would be a solution for this.

Cheers andisk

Hello @andisk!

 

Thanks for reaching out. If you're getting audiobooks in your music recommendations and Made for You playlists, I'd recommend you listen to them using a Private Session. That way, anything you listen won't influence your music recommendations and playlists. More info about Private Sessions can be found in the image below.

 

Hope this helps and have a nice day 🙂
