On the other hand, some were slightly “embarrassed” by their results.

Unfortunately, this Spotify Wrapped isn’t hitting like most years for many fans. For instance, while listeners discovered their top songs and artists for the year, they weren’t informed of their top genres. The “slideshow” was significantly shorter this year.
spotify wrapped was NOT worth the hype this year —no quirky interactive bits or silly personality assessments, and they didn’t even bother to make a “your top songs 2024” playlist for us this year ?!

Many aspects of what should have been featured in 2024 Spotify Wrapped appeared to be missing, from minute stats to genre ranks. Netizens agreed 2024 Spotify Wrapped was “not worth the hype.”
spotify wrapped flopped this year so bad like where are the music cities, the playlists, the top genres or the listening auras… all that wait for WHAT #SpotifyWrapped2024 pic.twitter.com/cposhWNURI

@nicholasformato like where was she?!?! #spotifywrapped #spotify #music #fyp
Netizens also felt that their results this year were inaccurate. Some are blaming the app’s reliance on AI (Artifical Intelligence).
i’m not saying spotify wrapped flopped because they prioritized an AI PODCAST over top albums, top genres, and the interactive bits instead giving us all something NO ONE wants but 😗😗 pic.twitter.com/frTN0yN2Q2

@purboble It’s not even funny how bad it is maybe you should hire back everyone you laid off bc of corporate greed #spotifywrapped #spotify #fyp
Overall, users were underwhelmed, as it lacked the fun aesthetic and interactive nature that Spotify Wrapped has become known for. Some felt the ads leading up to the reveal were even better than the actual thing itself.
how is this promo better than the actual wrapped 😭 https://t.co/R6XAC4oKPg
