Written By Farhan Max

I have been using Spotify for a long time now. Since the beginning, Spotify has been an integral part of my everyday life, especially now that I have Spotify Premium.

There are several benefits to owning Spotify, including the ability to listen to music 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

I cannot think of a day without listening to music. And thanks to Spotify, I can do that with ease.

Can you have multiple profiles on Spotify?

Yes, you can have multiple profiles on Spotify. If you take one individual plan, then you can use only one profile on Spotify. But with a Duo subscription, two profiles can use Spotify simultaneously. And in the family program, six profiles can be created.

It is okay if you are confused with all the plans and features out there. Well, don’t worry; as a music lover and a Spotify user, I will solve all of your queries in no time.

So keep reading till the end to resolve your Confusion.

What are Spotify profiles?

Spotify profiles are like any other social media profiles you create on a platform. Except Spotify profiles will contain your music taste, what artist you follow, and what songs you like. If you have a public profile, then people can see who you follow and vice versa.

As I said earlier, it works like any other social media platform. If you were using Instagram, what would your friends see? Where you are, what you are eating this and that. Instead of that in your Spotify profile, your friends or followers would know what you listen to.

In Spotify profile, you can see your profile picture, your user name, your recently played artist, whom you follow, your followers, and the very important feature, your public playlists!

Public Spotify profile users can make their playlist so that other people can look it up and make it their jam. It is very cool to have a public profile; I feel like at least in Spotify because it opens the door for many people to listen to whatever you are listening to. And with the public playlist, you can even share that with your friends. There is no story-like option in Spotify. I wouldn’t say it’s necessary, but I guess it’s good to have one? IDK you guys decide.

So, How much space does Spotify take up on your device? Quickly check out our post to find out.

Spotify did a very good thing by introducing profiles on Spotify. Think about it this way without a personal profile, how hectic it would be to sort out everything.

First of all, it would have been tough to get into new music or trying out a genre you have never tried. I have clicked on many songs that my friends were listening which I had never heard of in my entire life. But I ended up jamming those songs up until I said no more.

Also, without the profiles, the whole Spotify thing would not be rewarding. Because if you think about it this away when you are paying 9.99$ per month, you want to customize the entire app within your style, and to do that, you need your individual profile.

On top of that, without the profiles, you won’t be able to access the public playlists, which are far more versatile than the Spotify playlists. Without the profiles, Spotify cannot collect personal data. They cannot personalize music or artist according to your music taste. Let’s say if you don’t want to hear a song and you don’t want to listen to it in the future. Now without the profiles, it is not possible to save your preference.

Separate Profiles are important if you are in a family account. If you have any family member under the age of 15 or a kid, you have to set the account in restriction mode, which will cut out all the explicit content from the underage profile.

As a music lover and a lifelong Spotify user, I will guide you exactly on how you can fix your Spotify application from stuttering.

How do you find someone’s Spotify profile?

In Spotify, you can search for your favorite artist with the Spotify profile search option.  It is important to follow your favorite artist on Spotify. So that you can hear all their latest music the very moment, it’s out for streaming. At the same time, it is important to follow all your friends and family on Spotify because you want to know what they are hearing and take songs from their custom-made playlist.

Here is how you can search people on Spotify:

  • Open the Spotify app.
  • Click on the search bar option on the top.
  • Type in the name you want to search.
  • Enter the profile.how-you-can-search-people-on-spotify
  • Hit follow.

In that profile, you would also see what that person listens to on a daily basis and their recent playlist. Also, if the profile is public, you can see who follows that account or what celebrities that profile holder follows. You can even see recently played music tracks or genres.

If you are on mobile and looking for an option to search profiles, simply click on the search button, type in the user name, go to the account, and press follow.

You now may ask which celebrity accounts to follow?

If you are new to music and want to follow popular music artists or celebrities, I can give you a head start. See, as a music lover, I love every sort of music out there. And I feel like my music taste is very versatile. Because at one point, I would bang my head listening to AC/DC, and the very next moment, I would cry a river listening to Kodaline All I want. Then I will break a leg with Dua Lipa listening to her recent hit track Levitating. And if you are wondering if I like BTS or not. Yes, I do because they are smooth like butter.

Here are the top 8 popular artist/celebrity picks on Spotify:

  • Weekend.
  • Billie Eilish.
  • Drake.
  • Eminem.
  • Khalid.
  • Queen.
  • Nirvana.
  • Pink Floyd.

You can easily find all these artists through the search bar. If you want to explore different genres, then go to the search option to find different genres. And you will see your top genres according to your music taste.

Can you have separate profiles on the Spotify family?

Yes, you can have your separate profile on the Spotify family. In the Spotify family program, you can add up to 6 profiles. Meaning 6 profiles can listen to music at the same time with their profiles.

Now you may ask how many Spotify profiles per account?

If you take an individual plan, then you can only listen to music with one profile. However, with the duo plan, two people can listen to music simultaneously, which will cost you around 12.99$. And if you subscribe to the Spotify family plan, you can add six profiles to that plan costing you 15.99$ per month.

I feel like the duo plan is costly when you think about the price you are paying. It’s better to subscribe to the Family plan. And if you want to cut the cost, you should subscribe to the Student plan, which is around 4.99$ per month. You will get a free HULU and Showtime subscription with the student plan. If you are a student, then getting the student plan makes sense because I feel like it’s a bang for the buck deal.

How to share Spotify profile

You can share your Spotify profile with your friends and family with a link. It is very easy to do. You can do that even with your smartphone. You just need the Spotify app on your device.

Here are the steps to share a Spotify profile:

  • Launch the Spotify app.
  • Go to settings.
  • Select your profile.
  • Click on the three dots on the top right.
  • Press share.how-to-share-spotify-profile

You can now share your profile via Messenger, WhatsApp, and Facebook. Also, you can tweet your Spotify account too. You can copy the link and share it through a message as well.

But before that, if your Spotify isn’t letting you log in, quickly check our post to solve this issue immediately.
