Spotify Gives You Even More Control With the Ability to Exclude Tracks From Your Taste Profile

01/10/2025

Personalization is at the heart of Spotify. When you ask listeners what they love most about Spotify, more than 81% cite our personalization, and we're always evolving to help you create a listening journey that's uniquely yours. Starting today, you can exclude individual tracks from your Taste Profile, in addition to playlists.

Your Taste Profile is Spotify's interpretation of your taste, based on what you listen to and how you listen to it. It helps inform your recommendations, from Discover Weekly to your Home page, and personalizes experiences like Wrapped and Blend.

Excluding a track will lessen the impact of both past and future streams of that song on your recommendations, so your just for the moment listening doesn't end up skewing your Spotify experience.

You've already been able to exclude select playlists from your Taste Profile, and now you can do the same for any track, whether it's a calming sleep sound, your kids' go-to song, or a one-off listen that doesn't fit your usual vibe.

How to exclude a track from your Taste Profile This feature is available now for Free and Premium users globally on web, desktop, iOS, and Android. Here's how it works for individual tracks and playlists:

Select the track or playlist you want to exclude.

Tap the three dots in the top-right corner of your screen.

Choose Exclude from your Taste Profile (or Include in your Taste Profile to add it back later).

With more control over your Taste Profile, your recommendations and personalized features can stay true to your unique musical taste, even if your listening habits sometimes take a detour. Spotify's recommendations will keep evolving with you so your listening experience stays fresh and personal.

Ready to dive in? Explore the Made For You hub on Spotify, your one-stop shop for playlists, podcasts, and recommendations tailored just for you.
