Spotify's Daylist is a popular way for people to listen to playlists made just for different times of the day. Even though it has only been around for about a year, many users still turn to Daylist to find music they really enjoy—kind of like how we eat three meals a day. With Daylist, you get playlists that match different parts of your day, helping you listen to the right songs at the right time.
If you want to learn more about Spotify's Daylist, keep reading. We'll guide you through the whole experience.
Part 1. What Is Daylist on Spotify?
Just before AI playlists began rolling out, Daylist had already become one of Spotify's most popular features—and honestly, it's still my go-to for discovering new music. Clearly, I'm not the only one. People love how it adapts to their day and keeps things fresh. Spotify had tested something similar years ago, but Daylist officially returned about a year ago, and it's stuck around for a good reason.
So, what exactly is it? The company calls Daylist "your day in a playlist." It updates multiple times a day—usually in the morning, afternoon, and evening—with music that matches your mood. Think of it like getting three musical meals a day. Each update reflects a different part of your routine, offering a fresh mix of songs with mood-based titles like "crunchy van life morning" or "shy hallyu late night."
How Does Daylist Work?
Daylist isn't just another "Made for You" playlist like Daily Mix. It's based on the idea that your mood changes throughout the day—so your music should, too. You might want something energetic in the morning, focused in the afternoon, and calm at night. Daylist picks up on these patterns and tailors each update to how you're likely feeling.
Each version includes 50 tracks, refreshed using your listening history, liked songs, and genre preferences. It blends familiar favorites with new discoveries—sometimes it nails the mood, sometimes not. But since it updates several times a day, there's always something new waiting.
Unlike static playlists, Daylist is always evolving. You can check the playlist page to see when the next update is coming—Spotify shows a message like "Next update at 5:30 PM." If you find a version you really like, don't forget to save it before it changes.
Why Do People Love Daylist?
Daylist doesn't just reflect your music taste—it adapts to it, just like AI DJ. It feels personal in a way that makes you feel seen. It's clear this playlist isn't just built for someone like you—it's built for you. And that kind of real connection is exactly what keeps people coming back.

- Create a new playlist and add all the current Daylist tracks to it.
- This way, you keep that particular Daylist mix saved permanently.
- If you want to share this saved version, open the playlist's 3-dot menu and select Share.
Part 4. How to Remove Songs from Your Daylist on Spotify
Since the original Daylist playlists are created and managed by Spotify, you cannot remove or customize songs directly in those. However, if you've saved a specific version of Daylist by creating your own playlist (like we covered in Part 3, Option 2), you can remove songs from that playlist anytime.
Here's how to remove songs from your saved Daylist playlist:
- Open the Spotify app on your device.
- Go to Your Library and find the playlist you created to save the Daylist version.
- Open the playlist and scroll through the songs.
- To remove a song, tap the 3-dot menu next to the track (on mobile) or right-click the song (on desktop).
- Select Remove from this Playlist.
- The song will be deleted only from your saved playlist, leaving the original Spotify Daylist untouched.
