I hate using Spotify as a parent for a toddler

I hate using Spotify as a parent for a toddler because it keeps adding toddler songs to my daily mix.

Therefore, I asked #GPTCHAT to write a PRD (product description document) for a feature that will solve this pain for all the parents out there.

I really wish this post will find it’s way to Spotify Labs, product managers, or anyone who could help make it happen.

Here it is:

The prompt:

Create a PRD for Spotify toddlers mode, a feature that will enable a safe zone and will separate kids songs from daily mix. Use AI to recognize the childern’ songs.

Spotify Toddlers Mode // Product Requirements Document (PRD)

1. Overview:

Spotify Toddlers Mode is a new feature that will enable parents to create a safe zone on the Spotify app for their children, where only kids songs and educational content will be available. This feature will use AI technology to automatically detect and filter out any non-kids content from the app, so that parents can continue listening to their own music and daily mix, while their children have access to a curated selection of music and content that is appropriate for their age.

2. Objective:

The primary objective of Spotify Toddlers Mode is to provide parents with a convenient and easy-to-use tool that will allow them to create a safe zone on the Spotify app for their children. This feature will enable parents to continue listening to their own music, while their children have access to a curated selection of music and content that is appropriate for their age.

3. Target Audience:

The target audience for Spotify Toddlers Mode is parents of young children who use the Spotify app on their mobile devices. This feature will be particularly useful for parents who want to ensure that their children have access to appropriate music and content on the app, while still being able to listen to their own music.

4. Features:

• A dedicated kids mode that can be easily enabled by parents on the Spotify app
• A curated selection of kids songs and educational content that is appropriate for young children, automatically detected and filtered out by AI technology
• The ability for parents to continue listening to their own music and daily mix, while their children are in kids mode
• Easy-to-use parental controls that allow parents to manage and customize their children’s experience on the app

User Flow:

1. The parent opens the Spotify app on their mobile device and goes to the settings menu
2. The parent selects the “kids mode” option and enables it
3. The app will then switch to the kids mode, where only the curated selection of kids songs and educational content will be available
4. The parent can continue to listen to their own music and daily mix while their children are in kids mode
5. The parent can use the parental controls to manage and customize their children’s experience on the app

Technical Requirements:

• The Spotify app must be updated to include the kids mode feature and AI technology for automatically detecting and filtering out non-kids content
• A curated selection of kids songs and educational content must be created and added to the app
• Parental controls must be implemented to allow parents to manage and customize their children’s experience on the app

Timeline:

• Phase 1: Update the Spotify app to include the kids mode feature and AI technology for automatically detecting and filtering out non-kids content (2 weeks)
• Phase 2: Create and curate a selection of kids songs and educational content (2 weeks)
• Phase 3: Implement parental controls and test the feature (2 weeks)
• Phase 4: Launch the kids mode feature on the Spotify app (1 week)

Success Metrics:

• An increase in the number of parents using the kids mode feature on the Spotify app
• Positive feedback from parents about the usefulness and convenience of the feature
• An increase in the amount of time that children spend using the app in kids mode

Conclusion:

Spotify Toddlers Mode is a new feature that will provide parents with a convenient and easy-to-use tool for creating a safe zone on the app for their children. This feature will use AI technology to automatically detect and filter out any non-kids content, enabling parents to continue listening to their own music, while their children have access to a curated selection of music and content that is appropriate for their age. By implementing this feature, Spotify will be able to better serve the needs of its users, and provide a more enjoyable and safe experience for young children on the app. Additionally, the use of AI technology will ensure that the kids mode is always up-to-date and relevant, providing parents with peace of mind that their children are only listening to appropriate content on the app.

The UI:

The user interface (UI) for the Spotify Toddlers Mode feature will be designed to be intuitive and easy-to-use for parents of young children. It will include a dedicated button or toggle in the settings menu of the app that allows parents to easily enable or disable the kids mode. When the kids mode is enabled, the app will switch to a separate interface that is designed specifically for young children. This interface will feature a curated selection of kids songs and educational content, as well as easy-to-use parental controls that allow parents to manage and customize their children’s experience on the app. The UI will also include visual cues and indicators to help parents quickly identify which songs and content are appropriate for their children, and will be designed with young children in mind to ensure that it is both engaging and age-appropriate.
