So what sets Spotify Pie apart from the yearly December release of Spotify Wrapped (other than the fact that Spotify Pie isn’t officially brought to you by Spotify)? While Wrapped provides uber-detailed stats like minutes listened and whether you made it into the top 0.5% of Olivia Rodrigo’s superfan base by calculating the number of times you played Sour on repeat, Spotify Pie tracks genres by the month. Even now, in 2022, the Christmas morning feeling of going through the specially curated Spotify Wrapped virtual flipbook is something users look forward to at the end of each year. Since the 2017 launch of Spotify Wrapped, an ingenious feature on the popular music app used to share users’ annual listening data, revealing to Instagram your 10,000 minutes spent listening to Harry Styles has essentially become a music fanatic’s rite of passage. Spoiler: The people of the internet are obsessed. It’s called Spotify Pie, and it was recently created by a third-party developer and UCLA student Darren Huang to give Spotify enthusiasts a closer look at their most-listened-to music of the month. If you’re still wondering why you’ve been seeing random, colorful pie charts with highly specific music genre codes all over social media as of late, there is indeed a simple explanation.
