Unable to see Made For You playlist from Friend Activity

[kelsids]

My Question or Issue

In my Friend Activity bar, I can see friends listening to Made For You playlists, like top songs 2025, but if I click on the playlist name, it sends me to MY top songs playlist which I can obviously listen to otherwise. I want to hear THEIR top songs playlist. Is this because the playlist is public but not added to their library? Is the only way to hear it to ask them to add me as collaborator or post to their library?

Hey there @kelsids,

Thanks for reaching out.

Keep in mind that Made for You playlists are unique to each listener and generated based on their individual listening habits. If you share a link to your Made for You playlist, for example, your friend will see their own version of that playlist—not yours, and this is an expected behavior because these playlists are personalized and not the same for every user.

If you want to hear your friend's 2025 Top Songs, they would have to create a new playlist, add all the songs and start the playback from there so you can see it if you click it in the Friend Activity. Otherwise, you won't be able to see it and will only be redirected to your own 2025 Top Songs playlist.

Hope this sheds some light on the matter. The Community will be here if anything else comes up.
