Overview
- Spotify began rolling out the Podcast Clips feature to Free and Premium mobile users on May 27, 2026, letting listeners capture short segments from episodes.
- Users tap a scissors icon in the Now Playing view, trim the selection using a clip selector, preview it, then save or share the excerpt.
- Saved clips appear in a dedicated area of Your Library and can be added to podcast playlists so moments are easy to revisit and organize.
- The updated share menu lets people send a full episode, a chapter, a timestamp, or a clip via Spotify Messages or other supported apps.
- Early tests and Spotify data on Chapters suggest clipping can increase saves and discovery, and observers note the feature restores a YouTube-like timestamped sharing option for podcasts.
