Spotify has introduced a new way for podcasters to use timestamps. The audio-streaming platform revealed that users can include timestamps in episode descriptions so listeners can start playing from precise moments.
They can be used in any of the following formats:
(m:ss); (mm:ss); (mmm:ss); (h:mm:ss); (hh:mm:ss); or (hhh:mm:ss).
For example:
(10:20) – will automatically link to 10 minutes and 20 seconds into an episode.
Note: Timestamps are currently only clickable on mobile.
