About Spotify history
Spotify has let people download their data since 2018, on its Privacy page: Account data, with the last year's listening, or Extended streaming history, every play since the account began. Each comes in a few days as a ZIP, my_spotify_data.zip.
The listening is JSON. Account data's StreamingHistory_music_0.json lists each play with when it ended, the artist, the song and how many milliseconds played, with podcasts in files of their own. The extended history's Streaming_History_Audio files, endsong before 2023, add the platform, country, album, shuffle, and how each play started and ended.
Filepeek reads the plays and works out, on your device, each year's hours and plays with its top artists and songs, and your top artists, songs and podcasts of all time, with how often you skipped and where you listened. Drop every file of the history together and they add up. Table lists every play to sort and filter, and Export saves them as CSV or Excel.

Questions
How do I download my Spotify history?
Sign in on spotify.com, open your Account, Privacy settings, and under Download your data tick Account data or Extended streaming history and request it. Spotify emails a link when it's ready.
Which history should I ask for?
Extended streaming history holds every play since you joined, with platforms and skips. Account data comes sooner but holds only the last year.
How do I see every year together?
Unzip it and drop all its StreamingHistory or Streaming_History files on the page at once. They add up into one card, each play counted once.
Why are my top songs different from Wrapped?
Wrapped counts up to about the end of October and by its own rules. Filepeek counts every play in your files, a play of 30 seconds or more, ranked by the time you listened.
Is my history uploaded?
No. The files are read in your browser and stay on your device.
