You Can Put Spotify on a Sleep Timer, So No More Waking Up to Turn It Off

Do you like to go to sleep with your Spotify playing? Do you hate waking up in the middle of the night with it still going so you have to turn it off? No longer, with this cool new life hack from TikTok user @ryanthetank. So far, this has only been seen to work on iPhones — the Spotify app on Android has a timer itself (three dots on the top right, scroll down to “Sleep Timer”).

How do you do it?

1. Open Spotify on your phone, and begin playing your music.
2. Exit Spotify, and open the Clock app.
3. Select the Timer option.
4. Select the amount of time you want your music to play for, and set your timer (example: 20 minutes).
5. Click where it says “When Time Ends,” and scroll all the way to the bottom and select “Stop Playing.”
