![]() ![]() This is just the first step for the podcast transcript experience: Our overall ambition is to enable transcripts across all podcasts on Spotify. Users will also be able to quickly scroll and navigate through specific episodes and click on any written paragraph to start playing from that point. ![]() The new feature will automatically generate transcripts for these shows, allowing users to read the text of the specific podcasts on their phones either with or without sound. This is a limited beta for select Spotify Original and Exclusive podcasts across iOS and Android. In the coming weeks, we’re also introducing auto-generated podcast transcripts. You can always go back to your phone settings and adjust the font size as needed. Making the text too large might make it hard to tap buttons or other functions within the Spotify app.Drag the slider to select the font size you want.Tap “Larger Text” for larger font options.On your phone, head to Settings > Accessibility, then select “Display & Text Size.”.Users can adjust their text size under Settings via iOS to meet their specific visual needs and preferences. With the latest accessibility updates, we’re enabling users to increase the text even more, improving overall navigation on the app and giving listeners greater control to personalize their experience. The Spotify app already reflects system-wide text size changes, known as Dynamic Type, to a certain extent. Plus, changing the text formatting from all caps creates more space for translation or localization for the more than 60 languages Spotify currently supports. The update can also aid users in situations where there’s low lighting or high screen reflections. Our aim is to make it easier for low-vision and visually impaired users to spot and engage with these actions when using Spotify on their phones. Today, you may notice some changes to these buttons in terms of color, text formatting, and size. When you use Spotify, you’re constantly tapping buttons to shuffle a playlist or start a listening session. We believe each change is part of our long-term mission to create a platform where everyone can enjoy an immersive artistic experience. These will all be rolling out in the coming weeks. So today, we’re introducing three updates to Spotify on iOS and Android: buttons with increased readability features, options for text resizing, and a beta for podcast transcripts. We’re continuously making accessibility improvements to the experience to help many of our users enjoy the songs and podcasts they love more easily. Spotify is part of the lives of over 356 million people around the world-and we’re cognizant that many of our users have different access needs.
