SnapMyFive

Product Introduction

1. SnapMyFive is a web platform that enables Spotify users to instantly view and share their most-played tracks without waiting for Spotify’s annual Wrapped summary. It connects directly to Spotify accounts to retrieve historical listening data and presents it in a clean, user-friendly interface.
2. The core value lies in providing real-time access to personalized music analytics, allowing users to track their listening habits year-round and share curated playlists or track rankings with minimal effort.

Main Features

1. The platform automatically generates a ranked list of users’ top tracks based on Spotify playback history, displaying metrics like song duration, release date, and popularity score for each entry.
2. Users can share their top tracks publicly via generated links or social media integrations, with customizable display options for themes and layout.
3. Detailed track metadata is pulled directly from Spotify’s API, including artist credits, album art, and direct playback links that open songs in the Spotify app or web player.

Problems Solved

1. Eliminates the need to wait for Spotify’s annual Wrapped feature by providing continuous access to listening statistics through automated data synchronization.
2. Targets Spotify users who actively analyze their music preferences for self-reflection, content creation, or social sharing beyond the December timeframe.
3. Enables scenarios like creating themed playlists for events, tracking genre exploration patterns, or comparing musical tastes across different time periods without manual data collection.

Unique Advantages

1. Unlike static Spotify Wrapped summaries, SnapMyFive updates dynamically as listening habits change, offering a living snapshot of musical preferences.
2. Implements reverse-engineered Spotify API calls to fetch historical play counts that are not natively exposed through public developer endpoints.
3. Operates without requiring persistent Spotify account permissions—users authenticate once for data retrieval, reducing privacy concerns compared to third-party apps storing login credentials.
