Spotify repeat symbols, or icons, are a commonly used feature on the popular music streaming service. They allow users to repeat a song or playlist for as long as they wish. The repeat symbols have been around since Spotify launched in 2008 and are still popular today.
The repeat symbols are located in the bottom-right corner of the Spotify app (desktop and mobile) and can be used to quickly toggle between playing a song or playlist once, looping it, or shuffling it. To use the repeat symbol, simply click on it once to start looping the current song or playlist.
If you click it again, it will shuffle through your current queue. Clicking it one final time will turn off looping and shuffling.
What Do The Different Symbols Mean?
The Spotify repeat symbol is made up of three different parts – an arrow pointing to the left, an arrow pointing to the right and a number in between them. The number is usually 1, 2 or 3 but can also be any other number depending on how many times you want the current track or playlist to repeat.
- An arrow pointing to the left: This symbol indicates that the current track will play only once.
- An arrow pointing to the right: This symbol indicates that the current track will play continuously until you manually stop it.
- A number: This number indicates how many times you want the current track/playlist to repeat before stopping automatically.
Using The Repeat Symbol For A Single Track
When using a single track on Spotify, clicking on the repeat symbol will cause that track to play continuously until you manually stop it – this is indicated by an arrow pointing to the right. If you click again, then Spotify will return to playing one single instance of that track only – this is indicated by an arrow pointing to left. Finally if you click one more time then Spotify will return back its default behaviour which is not repeating anything at all – this is indicated by an empty circle with no arrows or numbers inside.
The Spotify Repeat Symbol feature allows users to easily control which songs they want played repeatedly and how often they should be played. It consists of three parts – an arrow pointing left which means playing once only; an arrow pointing right which means looping; and a number which indicates how many times a song should be repeated before stopping automatically. With just a few clicks of their mouse (or finger taps on their mobile device), users can customize their listening experience with great ease!
