Have you ever wondered what your listening habits are?
Whether you're a hard-core heavy metal fan or listen to everything from pop, rap, classic, folk, rock and more, breaking down your listening habits is interesting.
Although, it might seem like an impossible task if you have endless playlists and your taste in music is always changing.
But, there's an exciting software that analyses your playlists in just moments with the Spotify Playlist Analyzer.
Available on Chosic, the free service aims to help users "easily find some useful information and interesting statistics about any Spotify playlist to get a better understanding of what kind of music you love."
Adding that while Spotify offers simple information on playlist followers count, the curator name, playlist length and song count, Spotify Playlist Analyzer goes deeper.

Playlists are rated by several factors, these are:
- Not Repeating Artists: a good playlist usually has one song per artist. Rating will be low if artists repeat so many times.
- Genres: So many genres in a playlist will give it a low rating, the best is to focus on one or a few main genres in the playlist. You can check the main genres chart when you analyze a playlist.
- Variety of tracks' popularity: Good playlists usually have a mix of popular and non-popular songs in order to help listeners discover new music.
- Playlist length: We considered a good playlist length of 50 tracks at least, and there is no maximum length.
You can break down your playlists via the Spotify Playlist Analyzer website.
