Spotify has introduced a new 'Running Mode' feature for iOS users, designed to enhance their running experience by personalizing playlists to individual goals, musical preferences, and tempo.

This feature is currently exclusive to Premium users on iOS in select markets, including the U.S., Canada, the U.K., Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, and Sweden. Users can access Running Mode via the Fitness Hub, where they can select from 25 curated running presets. Customization options include workout type (interval, steady, pyramid), duration, Beats per Minute, and desired music genre.

Upon starting a run, Spotify will deliver music tailored to the user's workout. The feature also offers optional audio cues in English to guide users. Running Mode builds upon Spotify's existing Prompted Playlists and guided workout functionalities, aiming to provide a more immersive and effective running soundtrack.
