Spotify is always looking for new ways to enhance the user experience, and this time, they are bringing an exciting feature to Audiobooks in April: Countdown Pages. This feature has been a hit for music releases, allowing users to “pre-save” audiobooks before their official release date. Authors and publishers can also take advantage of Countdown Pages to promote their upcoming titles.
Once an audiobook is pre-saved, users will see a timer countdown above it until the release date. When the book is finally available, Spotify will notify users so they can start listening right away. This new feature will make it easier for users to discover and access new audiobooks as soon as they are announced.
Here are some key points about Countdown Pages for Spotify Audiobooks:
– Users can pre-save audiobooks before their release date
– A timer countdown will be displayed until the book is available
– Users will receive notifications when the book is released
– A “Pre-save” CTA will be added to unreleased book pages
– A “More like this” tab will suggest similar books for immediate listening
Countdown Pages for Spotify Audiobooks will be rolling out in all markets where Audiobooks are available starting in mid-April. Since its launch in 2023, Spotify’s premium service has seen users enjoying over 150,000 unique titles. With a vast catalog of more than 200,000 titles, Spotify aims to increase engagement with audiobooks among its user base of over 600 million.
