[All Platforms] Bookmark Position in an Audiobook or Podcast

Submitted by on ‎2015-02-05 01:22 PM

Hey there,

Now that Spotify have added a bunch of Audiobooks and Podcasts, I think it would be a nice idea to have the option to:
Pause your audiobook/podcast > go back to listening to music > and then be able to get back to your book/podcast and pick up where you left of, without having to memorize the time that you paused.

What do you think?

 

Have a good enough day!

Hey everyone,

Thanks for coming to the Community.


We're setting this one to implemented.
Although there's not a specific 'bookmarking' feature, Spotify does now keep track of where you left off in a podcast, and store that progress for you across your devices and sessions.

If you'd like to see the same behaviour for audio books, we'd recommend making a new Community Idea for this. In the meantime, we've passed all of your feedback along to the right teams.

Thanks!

Reallöhne? Still bot implemented? What a shame.

Please realize: audiobooks are NOT music. They deserve a different behavior and most important: they have to remember your last positions! That's the main reason why j haven't listened to audiobooks till now.

In Audiobooks there is no need of a shuffle button . 

 

And what about a sleeptimer? Not just in Audiobooks? Set 25 min. to stop playing music / Audiobooks

Oh my goodness this would make a world of difference! Is any reason given as to why this is marked as "not right now"??

Hi, I had the same idea. It would be really great if you could incorporate such a function. I hear many audiobooks on Spotify, and it is super hard to find the correct chapter when they heard something in between.
