## Recipes

### Build a Friday-night playlist from a mood prompt

```
Spotify, build me a 90-minute playlist for a low-key Friday night with friends — indie pop, downtempo electronic, no vocals over the chorus. Save it as "Friday low-key" on my account.
```

_Tested with: ChatGPT_

## Description

Spotify is one of the seven pilot ChatGPT Apps. Tell ChatGPT what mood, occasion, or genre you want and it composes a playlist on your account, surfaces matching artists and podcasts, and queues tracks — without ever leaving the chat.

## Why it matters

It is the cleanest demonstration of an Apps SDK integration: the model handles the intent ("party Friday, indie + electronic, 90 minutes") and the app handles the catalog and account write. Worth listing because it sets the UX bar for every other ChatGPT-native app.

## Key features

- One-click OAuth into your Spotify account
- Native player widget inside ChatGPT
- Playlist write actions with confirmation
- Works on Free, Go, Plus, and Pro ChatGPT plans
- Pilot launch partner (Oct 2025)

## FAQ

### Do I need a Spotify Premium account?

No. The Spotify app inside ChatGPT works with Free and Premium accounts — playlist creation and discovery are available on both. Premium unlocks the usual ad-free playback when you actually listen.

### Is the Spotify app available outside ChatGPT?

No. This is a ChatGPT-native app built on OpenAI's Apps SDK. For programmatic music access elsewhere, use the Spotify Web API directly.

### Where is the Spotify app available?

Logged-in ChatGPT users on Free, Go, Plus, and Pro plans, currently outside the EEA, Switzerland, and the UK. OpenAI is expanding regions over time.

### Does it write to my account, and can I undo?

Yes — playlist creation is a write action and ChatGPT confirms before each one. Created playlists live in your normal Spotify library and you can delete or modify them from any Spotify client.
