Introduced last year and made available to users in July, Heardle was based on users listening to songs for a short period of time and then guessing the name of the song. It was developed as an alternative to Wordle, as its name suggests. However, Spotify has now decided to shut down Heardle.

Heardle was helping users have fun and improve their music experiences. However, its popularity decreased rapidly, and Spotify announced on May 5th that Heardle would be shut down.

Nevertheless, it was also noted that Spotify will continue to work to provide better music experiences for its users.
