Spotify introduced a Podcast Clips feature that lets users select and share specific segments of podcasts directly from the Now Playing screen on the app. The feature is marked by a scissors icon and allows users to clip, trim, preview, save, and share either audio or video clips of podcasts [1, 2].
Clipped segments can be shared through social media, Spotify Messages, or other platforms. Saved clips automatically appear in the user’s Spotify Library for easy access later [1, 2]. The rollout is global for both Free and Premium mobile users, with availability expanding to more shows over time [1, 2].
Spotify first announced the global rollout of the Podcast Clips feature on May 27, 2026 [1, 2]. Earlier in 2026, the company launched the Chapters feature, which allows users to save and add podcast chapters to playlists; this feature has been used more than 2 million times per month [1].
Alongside Podcast Clips, Spotify has introduced other AI-driven podcast tools, including a chatbot that answers episode questions and "personal podcasts" generated from user prompts [2].
Spotify’s new Podcast Clips aim to give listeners easier ways to highlight and share key moments from podcasts. The company is expected to continue expanding clip support across more titles and platforms.
