Spotify is rolling out Smart Reorder, a one‑tap tool that rearranges mixed playlists by BPM and key for Premium users to improve track-to-track transitions.

The feature builds on Spotify’s playlist mixing controls introduced last year; since that launch, Premium users have streamed over 220 million hours of their mixed playlists, the company said in a statement.

"It’s never been easier to customize your Spotify listening experience," the company said in a statement. Users tap Mix on a playlist, then tap Edit to find Smart Reorder; tracks are reordered using BPM and key so transitions sound more seamless.

Spotify is also highlighting new playlists in its Mixed By hub from artists including John Summit, Becky G, Normani, Beéle, Mike Shinoda, Joe Hahn of Linkin Park, Odeal, GroovyRoom, and monte booker. The company said it reviewed popular global transitions and cited examples spanning artists such as The Weeknd, Bad Bunny and Lil Uzi Vert.

To try Smart Reorder, open Mix within the Spotify app and select Edit on a mixed playlist.

The recap

  • Spotify adds Smart Reorder to mixed playlists for Premium users.
  • Premium users have streamed over 220 million hours of their mixed playlists.
  • Open Mix in the Spotify app to access Smart Reorder now.
