Spotify brings shared audiobooks to Family and Duo plans, but there’s a catch

9to5mac.com Marcus Mendes 2026-01-12 20:58:47

Audiobook access on Spotify has always been limited to the account owner, meaning that even for Premium Family or Duo subscriptions, only the person who set up the plan could actually use the included hours each month. That’s about to change, depending on where you live. Two add-ons for Individual, Duo, and Family plans Until now, Spotify’s audiobook access has been limited to the primary user and capped at 15 hours per month.
