Google and Spotify are working closer together. The two companies announced a new feature that uses Google’s Gemini AI to help users create music playlists. This tool is now available inside the Spotify app for people who use Android phones.

The feature lets users describe the kind of music they want in simple words. For example, someone can type “songs for a rainy day” or “workout beats from the 2000s.” Gemini then builds a custom playlist based on that request. It pulls from Spotify’s huge library of tracks and considers things like mood, tempo, and genre.
This update is part of Google’s push to bring its AI tools into everyday apps. Spotify gains a smarter way to help listeners find music without searching through lists. Both companies say the goal is to make music discovery easier and more personal.
Users do not need a special subscription to try it. The feature works with free and paid Spotify accounts. It appears under the “Search” tab in the app. Google says the system learns over time but does not store personal data unless users allow it.
The partnership between Google and Spotify started earlier this year with basic AI integrations. Now, with Gemini handling playlist creation, the collaboration has grown stronger. Engineers from both teams worked together to fine-tune how the AI understands music requests. They tested many prompts to make sure results feel natural and relevant.

Early feedback from test users has been positive. Many said they found songs they would not have discovered on their own. Others liked how fast the playlists appeared after typing just a few words. The feature will roll out to more regions in the coming weeks.
