SPOTIFY JUST REDESIGNED THE WAY YOU'LL ‘LISTEN' TO AUDIOBOOKS

Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

Spotify is testing a new “Follow Along” feature that enhances audiobooks with synced visuals and music, moving beyond the traditional audio-only format. By collaborating with authors, publishers, and designers, Spotify has created custom assets for titles like “Culpability”, boosting engagement by replacing static PDFs with dynamic, multimodal storytelling, and opening new possibilities for visually rich books.
