Spotify can now automatically create a playlist for airplane mode

Spotify’s new Offline Backup takes the planning out of going offline. The feature automatically creates a playlist of your queued and recently played tracks, ready for when you go off the grid.

Soon after launching AI playlists in the US, Spotify is adding a new way to keep the music going when you lose your internet connection. The new Offline Backup feature for iOS and Android automatically creates a playlist of your queued and recently played tracks, ready for listening on flights or off-the-grid excursions. Once it populates, you can filter and sort songs within it to more easily nail down the artist, genre or vibe you’re feeling.
