Since its launch in 2008, Spotify has changed the way we listen to music and podcasts in the modern age. Despite avoiding some crucial questions, especially related to the use of artificial intelligence in music production, Spotify boasts over 100 million tracks, 5 million podcast titles, and 350,000 audiobooks in its portfolio. In 2022, Statista reported that Spotify held over 30.5% of music streaming subscribers worldwide, over twice as many subscribers as Apple Music. In 2023 Spotify had over 515 million monthly active users and 210 million subscribers.

To keep its subscribers engaged, Spotify has introduced different ways to improve the music (and podcast) listening experience throughout the years. In fact, for the average Spotify user, there are plenty of features you’re probably still missing out on. However, using some of them can lead to increased data consumption and definitely add to your phone bill if you’re not careful.
While things like optimizing Spotify for better sound quality can be worth it, other features might not be for you, especially on a limited data plan. Thankfully, it’s possible to adjust the video quality on your Spotify account when streaming on your mobile device. So, if you’re thinking about lowering or improving the quality of your Spotify video quality, here’s how you can do it.
