Recently I wanted to find out who liked my Spotify playlist.

Although I tried hard to do that, I could not find a proper answer.

I decided to go through forums, user reviews, and online documents to understand better.

Is it possible to see who liked the Spotify playlist in 2023?

No, Spotify has not enabled this feature. As I mentioned, I went for several sources to get an answer and discovered that Spotify doesn’t allow users to see who has liked your Spotify playlist. If you were a man before 2013, you would have been able to reveal those who liked your Spotify playlist.

In 2013, Spotify stopped that path, making users unable to see who liked their Spotify playlists. Although Spotify added a label as ‘Not Right Now’ in 2013, the feature is still unavailable.

I think that Spotify still wants its users to consider it a platform with limited social activities. That is why they are restricting the users from seeing those who liked the Spotify playlists well.

What Can I Do Instead Of Seeing Those Who Liked My Spotify Playlist?

There are two things you can do to get an idea about the followers for your Playlist, see those who follow your Spotify playlist and see the like count on your Playlist.
