Spotify Kids comes to UK and Australia however the app remains in beta as Spotify receives feedback from parents and caregivers. Originally launched in Autumn 2019, Spotify Kids is currently available in the UK Australia, Denmark, Sweden, New Zealand, and Ireland.

To access the Spotify Kids app, you need a Premium Family account and once logged in you will be able to download the app. The app has an easy to use, colourful interface to provide an easy way for children of all ages to discover music in a fun environment.

The app will ask for your child’s name and age. This is used to showcase the most relevant content for your child and to personalise their experience using the app. Children may see different content, depending on their age depending on whether the ‘Audio for Younger Kids’ or ‘Audio for Older Kids’ has been selected. All information is fully encrypted, and latest version allows for a PIN to be set up to control access to settings that are just for grown-ups.

Spotify Kids features

  • Listen to audio they love with their own account
  • Explore their tastes, without hearing explicit content
  • Discover music handpicked for kids by our experts
  • Hear playlists made just for young listeners
  • Play their favourite tracks offline

A rollout schedule for the US and the rest of the world is yet to be announced. You can try Spotify Kids free for 3 months with a Premium Family trial which can be cancelled anytime.
