Spotify will soon let you turn off all videos. Here's how.

Spotify is giving users the opportunity to return to a simpler, audio-focused listening experience.

Spotify announced on Thursday, April 9, that all users across Free, Basic, and Premium accounts will soon have the ability to switch off videos when using Spotify on mobile, desktop, and television. As of April 9, full-length music videos, podcast videos, short artist clips, and Canvas loops – short videos that play during tracks – are available on the music platform. The new update will be rolled out across the platform throughout April.

The update comes after a Burson PR firm survey found that 93% of Spotify users are excited about features that give them more control, Spotify outlined in a news release.

How to turn off videos in Spotify

To disable video content in the Spotify mobile app:

1. Open the Spotify app.
2. Tap the user profile photo in the top left corner.
3. Tap "Settings and privacy."
4. Tap "Content and display."
5. Toggle off "Music videos," "Canvas," and "All other videos."

Once these preferences have been set, they will be applied across all devices, including mobile, desktop, and television.

What type of Spotify accounts can turn off videos?

All Spotify users, across Free, Basic, and Premium accounts, will be able to toggle off videos by the end of April, as the update is being rolled out gradually. If users do not see the option in the app yet, it will appear soon.

Will you still be able to see ads with videos turned off?

Even when toggled off, users across all account levels, including Free, Basic and Premium, will still see video advertisements, including Canvas loop-like ads.

New settings provide more parental control

The ability to toggle off videos is also available for Spotify's Family Plans, allowing parents to easily switch off videos for users under the age of 13.

"We believe that for families who prefer a music-focused, distraction-free environment, these tools allow them to bring the experience back to Spotify’s audio-first roots," a news release states.
