How to Hide and Unhide Songs on Spotify
Spotify is one of the best music streaming services with a vast library of songs, albums and playlists that you can enjoy anytime, anywhere. However, sometimes you might find yourself wanting to hide songs that you no longer enjoy or are ashamed of, or simply want to declutter your playlist. Thankfully, Spotify offers an easy way to hide and unhide songs, so you can enjoy your music library without any distractions.
Here’s a quick guide on how to hide and unhide songs on Spotify:
How to Hide Songs on Spotify:

Step 4: Select the “Hide song” option from the drop-down menu.
