Spotify adds Running Mode that syncs playlists to your running pace
The Verge—Spotify has introduced a Running Mode that automatically syncs music tempo to a runner's pace, adjusting track selection as speed changes during a workout. The feature builds on the app's existing workout and mood-based playlist tools, this time tying song tempo directly to cadence rather than genre or energy level alone. It reflects Spotify's push to deepen engagement with fitness use cases as rivals compete for listening time during exercise. Details on rollout timing and device compatibility were not immediately specified.
