Spotify has a lot to offer its subscribers -- its AI DJ, custom recommendations and playlists like your ever-changing "daylist" and its end-of-year Spotify Wrapped experience, to name a few. But there are a couple of other features Spotify offers that you might not be aware of, and they can make your favorite songs sound even better.
Spotify's advanced audio settings let you tweak the quality of your music to match the environment you're in. For example, you can lower your base volume to lock in while studying in a quiet library. Or if you're pumping iron in the gym, you can change your genre equalizer to amp up your workout jams. These settings are easy to toggle on and off so you can adjust as needed as you go about your day.
Volume is pretty easy to figure out, but did you know Spotify lets premium users adjust the base volume of the app depending on their environment? You can select Quiet, Normal or Loud, and each has its own benefit.
Quiet will make songs a little quieter and sound cleaner, making it a good choice if you're relaxing at home. Normal makes songs play at a medium base volume, and the sound is less crisp than Quiet. This is a good choice for most people and situations. Loud is -- you guessed it -- louder, but you might lose some audio quality because of the loudness. This option is good if you're at the gym or other similarly noisy environments.
Here's how to adjust the base volume on your iPhone:
1. Open the Spotify app and tap on your profile picture in the upper left corner.
2. Tap the gear icon to open the Settings and privacy menu.
3. Tap Playback.
4. Under Volume level, there are three options: Loud, Normal and Quiet. Pick whichever option works for you, and Spotify will adjust the sound accordingly.
If you want to reset the equalizer, there's a genre-based equalizer called Flat. This will reset the equalizer to its default.
