Karaoke, the Japanese form of singing along with your favorite songs, is a tried and tested form of entertainment embraced by young and old alike.
One service jumping on the bandwagon is Spotify.

What Is Spotify Karaoke Mode?
Spotify has released a new feature called ‘Karaoke Mode.’ This feature allows users to sing along to songs as the lyrics appear on the screen. Even more fun, Spotify will rate your performance from 0-100.
Not only does the app show you onscreen lyrics, but it also rates your singing. As soon as they’re done with a song, users get scored on each song they sing, with ratings ranging between 0 and 100, depending on how accurate their singing was.
How To Get Spotify Karaoke Mode
Before we get started, it’s worth noting that not all devices will have Spotify Karaoke available to them. But don’t worry as Spotify is rolling this out to all users over time, so even if you don’t see it now, wait a few months until it becomes available in your area.
Also ensure that you already have the latest version of Spotify. Karaoke is a fairly new feature so you’ll need to check you aren’t using an outdated version of the Spotify app (more on how to do that below).
You can make sure you stay up to date with each version of the app by toggling the ‘Automatic Update’ feature via any of the app stores, or you can do it manually, as we explain below.
Enable Spotify Karaoke Mode On Mobile

- Tap on the ‘Sing’ button on the right of the lyric screen to toggle on karaoke mode
Once you’ve done this you should see an additional sound bar that will rate how well you are singing.
Enable Spotify Karaoke Mode On PC
Getting Spotify Karaoke on PC is much the same as on mobile, just follow these steps:
- Open your desktop Spotify app
- Find the song you want to sing with
- Once playing scroll down to the song’s lyrics
- Tap on the ‘Sing’ button to enable karaoke mode
FAQs
Do You Need Spotify Premium for Karaoke Mode?
No. One of the best things about this feature is that all Spotify users can make the most of this feature.
So, it’s not just restricted to Premium accounts.
Why Turn on Automatic Updates for Spotify?
Setting the automatic updates feature on your devices means you no longer have to keep checking the app stores for any available system updates. Instead, your device does all the work for you.
You can turn on this feature for iOS devices via the Automatic Downloads option in the App Store. Android devices also have a similar feature, which you can activate via the Play Store called the ‘Enable auto update’ function.
Even better is that you can choose which apps you want to be updated automatically. This way, you won’t have a constant stream of updates on your device.
