Weekly engagement-based rankings aim to boost discovery across Spotify’s growing audiobook push.

Overview

  • Rankings update each week and highlight Top Audiobooks overall as well as genre-specific lists based on listening behavior and engagement.
  • The charts are located in the Audiobooks hub under the “Dive deeper” section and are available to both Free and Premium users.
  • Spotify frames the feature as a discovery tool that helps listeners find trending titles while giving authors and publishers greater reach.
  • Coverage notes the charts can be previewed on the web without signing in to see what is trending.
