Spotify expands parent-managed accounts for children to free tier users

Spotify has expanded its Managed Accounts feature for children to users on its free tier, covering the U.S., U.K., Australia, France, Germany, and the Netherlands.

• Managed Accounts allow parents to block explicit songs, disable video playback, and limit interactive features by default.
• Children can create their own playlists and receive personalized recommendations without affecting their parent's algorithm.
• The feature was previously available only to paid Family Plan subscribers since its 2024 launch.
• Spotify said it plans to bring Managed Accounts to additional countries in the future.
