WhatsApp finally works on the Apple Watch

Spotify is introducing weekly listening statistics with the new "streaming statistics" function - and shows you which songs and artists have characterised your week.
Spotify has launched a new feature that gives you a statistical insight into your music habits. With the new «Listening Stats», you can now see which songs and artists you have listened to the most every week - a little «mini-wrapped» for every week of the year.
Until now, you had to wait until the end of the year to see what your favourite tracks were with the big Spotify Wrapped - or you used external services like Last.fm. That's changing now: The app shows you on a weekly basis which tracks have been playing up and down, which artists have been with you and which genres have characterised your week.
Spotify automatically creates a playlist with your favourite songs from the last few days - supplemented by new recommendations that suit your taste. Each week you will also receive a personal highlight: maybe it's an artist you've discovered or a song you've listened to particularly often.

You can find the new function in your profile. Tap on your profile picture, select the tab «Streaming statistics» - and you will see your weekly analyses. The feature is currently being rolled out in over 60 countries. Even if you have a free plan, you can still view the statistics. There is also a share button - either via Spotify itself or via social media apps. According to Spotify, the classic wrap will remain the same.
I've been tinkering with digital networks ever since I found out how to activate both telephone channels on the ISDN card for greater bandwidth. As for the analogue variety, I've been doing that since I learned to talk. Though Winterthur is my adoptive home city, my heart still bleeds red and blue.
From the latest iPhone to the return of 80s fashion. The editorial team will help you make sense of it all.
