How to block your ex on Spotify
This page was translated using AI and machine learning.
(Pocket-lint) – Spotify has made it much easier to block someone, like an ex or someone you don’t want to stalk your stuff. Previously, you had to contact Spotify customer service to block another user. But, now you can do the job yourself right in the Spotify app.
Spotify’s new direct block feature is currently rolling out to all users. This is how it works.
How to block another user on Spotify
To block someone on Spotify, open the latest version of the Spotify app from a desktop or mobile device, then do the following:
- Visit the user’s profile.
- Click on the button.
- Select “Block” (on the desktop) or “Block user” (on the mobile).
That’s it! Note that there is an “Unblock” option if you wish to use it.
Why block someone on Spotify?
Spotify said its new blocking feature is part of its goal of creating a safe environment for users to listen to their music and podcasts. When you block another user on Spotify, that person will no longer be able to access your page, public playlists, or see your listening activity. Spotify might not be the first app that comes to mind when thinking about blocking users, but it’s important that people have full control over their privacy and data online.
