Spotify is gearing up to roll out several innovative features, including a dedicated karaoke mode, up to 30 minutes of daily offline playback for free users, a redesigned car mode interface, and others.
These developments were first spotted by acclaimed app researcher Jane Manchun Wong, who shared detailed screenshots on Twitter (now X), a reliable source for early feature leaks.
The highlight is a new karaoke mode, featuring a microphone button that reveals song lyrics and lets users adjust vocal levels. While Wong's leaks show it on mobile, early adopters report functionality on Mac and iPad.
Spotify frequently tests features with select users, and karaoke is already available in markets like Japan and Thailand, signaling a potential worldwide launch soon.
Wong also revealed plans for free-tier users to download and play up to 30 minutes of music offline each day. Premium subscribers enjoy unlimited offline access, so this could entice upgrades.

While rollout timelines remain unclear, these enhancements show Spotify's commitment to user experience.
