Spotify Family Plan adds parental controls as part of an upgrade to its Spotify Premium Family subscription which is available in Ireland now and will roll out globally in autumn 2019.
The upgraded plan gives subscribers on-demand access to 450,000 podcast titles and 50 million tracks of ad-free music. Parents will now be able to control the Explicit Content Filter setting of all other accounts on their plan (these parental controls are a long-requested feature).
Spotify Premium Family Plan features
Family Mix
Families will get exclusive access to a personalized playlist packed with songs the whole family enjoys. Family Mix is updated regularly and you can control who is in each session to optimize your family’s favourite shared listening moments.
Family Hub
Billing users can now manage their Family’s settings in one place, including adding or removing family members, keeping your home address up to date, and adjusting your parental controls.
Six Accounts
Spotify Premium Family provides six individual Spotify Premium accounts for family members living under one roof, meaning you’ll keep your own saved music and playlists.
Existing Premium Family users will be notified as soon as the upgraded Family plan is available in your locale.
Spotify Premium Family plan costs £14.99/month compared to an Individual subscription costing £9.99/month. Similar pricing exists for US and European users with reduced local pricing in certain regions.
