Spotify is adding a new mode to its phone app for people who like to listen to music on runs. The new running mode cues up songs based on different phases of runs, and selects tracks based on your preferences and tempo.
Paying subscribers can find the running mode in Fitness Hub, and can select from one of the 25 presets. Users can choose their workout type from options like interval runs, steady runs or pyramid, and can customize the duration, beats per minute, and the kind of music they want to listen to.
As well as playing songs, running mode can create audio cues for different stages of your run, too. This feature only works in English for now.
The new mode takes advantage of the AI chops Spotify has been testing as part of its prompted playlists for the past year. The streaming platform noted that many people use this feature to create lists for fitness and workout activities, and this new running mode was inspired by those observations.
Earlier this year, the company introduced fitness content with fitness device maker Peloton.
The running mode comes a couple of months after fitness app Strava said its Record feature would no longer integrate Spotify within the app.
The feature is available starting Wednesday to Premium users on iOS in the U.S., Canada, the U.K., Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, and Sweden.
