My Question or Issue

Many of the public and Spotify created playlists are not updating for me.

Particularly the playlist below. If I use a friend's account or view it in incognito, it's completely different; My account still shows Songs from 2019-12-27 on the playlist. (https://open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9dQZF1DWTfrr8pte1rT?si=en9PMINqT9ys6OPXI9Dmag)

Thank you for reaching out here in the Community!

Some playlists are personalized based on your listening habits and history, so they might vary whey you compare them with your friend.

You can find more details on that here.

It's also good to know that these playlists don't have a specific time when they're updated, so you might see older songs.

Playlists that are updated regularly, you can find e.g. in the Made For You section.

For reference, here's how the playlist you linked looks on my end, also with 2019-12-27 date:

I hope you'll find this helpful!

I understand this Emilia; however, this playlist didn't get updated in months.

Thanks for your response!

Please keep in mind that these playlist don't have a specific timeline when they are updated.

Some have new songs added regularly, some are entirely changed, and others don't get updated at all.

I still see some playlist with 2018 date.

If you have any idea in mind it could be improved, you're always welcome to submit it in the Idea Exchange part of the Community.

More details on that can be found here.

Have a great day!
