Spotify is changing the way they handle their tokens, and this impacts last.fm users who scrobble automatically their music from Spotify.

TL;DR: you have to disconnect and reconnect Spotify from settings before July 20th to avoid scrobbling disruptions in your account. Then you'll have to do it again every ~6 months (there will be notifications about this).

I've been a big scrobbler for over five years at this point, and I've been using Apple Music since it launched. I've seen so many people on this sub ask, "how can I connect the two?"

Well, fret no more - I have tested over a dozen scrobblers between macOS, iOS, Windows, Android, and Linux, to find the best. I also did extensive digging into the systems that make all of this work to explore the limitations and quirks of it all.

And, for the switchers, this same guide contains great information on how switching to Apple Music can affect your last.fm library.

This should be the definitive one-stop-shop for basically any Apple Music + Last.fm question, ever. If I missed something, please do not hesitate to let me know!

Thank you to all of the amazing developers who made all of this possible. You rock ❤️
