when does spotify stop collecting data for wrapped

Spotify does not stop collecting data for Wrapped on October 31 as commonly believed. Instead, Spotify begins tracking user data starting in January and continues collecting listening data until a few weeks before the Wrapped release, which is usually in the first week of December. This means Spotify Wrapped likely stops tracking data around mid to late November—typically between November 10 and November 20 for 2025. Listening data captured after this cutoff will not be included in that year's Wrapped summary but will count toward future statistics. December listening data is generally excluded from Wrapped to avoid skewing annual summaries with holiday playlists. Therefore, if you want your favorite songs or artists to be part of your 2025 Wrapped, you should listen to them consistently through mid-November.
