Users can even write a little message to their future selves.

"I just opened the Spotify Playlist in a Bottle feature and it made me laugh, cry, and smile. 10/10 feature," one user wrote on X.

Another added: "I don’t remember doing this but my Spotify Playlist in a Bottle from 2024 was spot on either way."
