How to Enhance Spotify Playlists on Phone and Computer [2024 Guide]

Spotify has integrated the AI feature in almost every aspect of the platform. When it comes to playlist, it rolled out Enhance, a feature that leverages artificial intelligence to recommend fresh and undiscovered tracks resonating the theme of your playlist. Put simply, once you enable the Enhance button, Spotify will suggest songs throughout your playlist, with one recommendation appearing after every two of your original tracks.

Sounds exciting? Well, it is. Read on to find out how to enhance a Spotify playlist using the Enhance feature and also how to turn it off if you don’t like it what it has to offer. If the Spotify Enhance button is missing or not showing on your Spotify app, this article has got you covered too. 

Spotify has replaced the Enhance feature with Smart Shuffle. However, you can still access the Enhance button if you are using the older version of the Spotify app. Please note that Spotify’s Enhance feature was only available to Premium users.

Here’s how to enhance Spotify playlist on mobile devices:

Open Spotify app on your iPhone or Android. Then, access the playlist and tap the “Enhance” button at the top.

If you like a recommendation and add it to the playlist permanently, press the “+” icon next to recommended tracks.

To turn Enhance off and hide the recommendations, tap the “Enhance” button again.

On Windows and Mac, Spotify continued the Enhance button for much longer until it eventually got replaced by the Smart Shuffle. Still, if the Enhance feature shows up on your Windows or Mac device, it means you’re still using an older version and can use it.

Here’s how to enhance Spotify playlists on Windows or Mac:

• Open the Spotify desktop app and choose a playlist.
• At the top of the playlist, you’ll find the “Enhance” button. Click on it to get the recommendations.



• Click on the “+” icon next to the recommendations if you want to add it to the playlist permanently.

You can click the Enhance button to turn it off.

If the Enhance button is missing, it’s because Spotify replaced the feature with Smart Shuffle in March 2023. Smart Shuffle is pretty much the same as the Enhance feature. For starters, Smart Shuffle also allows you to shuffle your Spotify playlist with recommendations that are based on your listening habits and genre preferences.

When it comes to recommending the songs, Smart Shuffle suggest one song for every three tracks but not a hard and fast rule (it is nuanced and count/frequency of suggestions vary).

Put simply, Smart Shuffle, is a rebranded (say upgraded) version of Enhance that expands its reach. It is also available for Liked songs, where Enhance was strictly limited to only playlist. And it is available for a much shorter playlists (works for a playlist with more than 15 as opposed to minimum 30 requirement of Enhance). Both Smart Shuffle and Enhance are available for Spotify Premium members.

As mentioned, if the Spotify Enhance button is missing, it means your app has been updated to a version that supports the Smart Shuffle feature instead. You can use the Smart Shuffle if you have a Spotify Premium or not.

Turn on/off Smart Shuffle on Spotify Mobile

• Open a Spotify playlist, album, or artist’s music.
• Click on the Smart Shuffle icon (two crossed arrows) at the top of the playlist. The icon will turn green to indicate it’s on.
• You will see recommendations midst the tracks of the playlist and the suggested songs will be marked with a sparkle (✨).
• You can turn Smart Shuffle off by simply tapping the Smart Shuffle icon again, even from the “Now Playing” screen.

Enable/Disable Smart Shuffle on Spotify Desktop

• Open a playlist on Spotify desktop.
• Click on the two cross arrows next to the Play button. It will turn green when active. And will see the recommendations at the end of the playlist under the “Recommended” section.



• If you want to disable Smart Shuffle, simply click on the Smart Shuffle icon again.
