Allow All Users to Import Their Complete Spotify & Apple Music Listening History with Accurate Historical Stream Tracking
I really hope ZeroCharts considers adding a feature that allows users to import their entire Spotify and Apple Music listening history directly into the platform. This should include every stream from previous years, even if those streams were never tracked or scrobbled through Last.fm. It would be amazing if users could upload their Spotify extended streaming history files or Apple Music listening data and have every individual stream automatically added to their account under the exact date it was originally played.
I'm actually new to ZeroCharts, and I recently discovered the platform through some Reddit discussions after learning about Last.fm. I've been using Spotify since around 2015, so naturally, I was really excited about the possibility of seeing my entire listening history, including all the artists, albums, and songs I've streamed throughout the years. I genuinely think ZeroCharts is such a cool platform, especially because of how detailed its music charts and statistics can be. However, I was honestly a little disappointed when I first logged in and realized that my previous years of Spotify listening activity weren't automatically included. I was hoping to see my complete music history from the beginning, but instead, so much of it was missing simply because I hadn't been using Last.fm all those years.
I think it would be an incredible improvement if ZeroCharts allowed users to manually upload their own Spotify extended streaming history or Apple Music listening data without having to depend entirely on Last.fm. Every imported stream should count toward the original date it was played, rather than being added as a new stream on the day of the upload. That way, our historical charts, statistics, artist rankings, album rankings, song rankings, and overall listening history would accurately reflect what we were actually listening to during those years.
A lot of people have been using streaming services for years before discovering platforms like Last.fm or ZeroCharts, and it feels disappointing knowing that such a huge portion of our music history isn't represented. Being able to recover those older streams would make the experience so much more enjoyable, especially for people who want to look back at how their music taste has evolved over time.
Please, ZeroCharts, consider giving users the option to import their own complete listening history directly into the platform. I really believe this would be one of the best features you could introduce, especially for newer users like myself who have years of Spotify or Apple Music history that they would love to see reflected in their charts. I genuinely love the concept behind ZeroCharts, and I think allowing us to upload our own streaming data would make the platform even more useful, accurate, and accessible to everyone. We should be able to see our entire music journey in one place, not just the streams that happened to be recorded after we discovered Last.fm.
Acredito que a equipe deve estar trabalhando nisso há um tempo, pelo que li, especialmente sobre a Apple Music (que pra rodar o scrobble no Last.FM precisa estar utilizando diretamente um aparelho da Apple, se não me falha a memória).
Mas é bom considerar uma situação sobre o Spotify também e que em alguns momentos é melhor usar o Last.FM até: não é segredo que em 2026 a plataforma mudou a maneira de contabilizar os streams nas músicas/artistas pelos seus algoritmos. Eu sou o tipo de pessoa que passa muito tempo ouvindo música, papo de no passado ter 13/15k minutos mensais ouvidos. Hoje, estou atingindo algo em torno de 9k/10k e meu consumo pelo menos não mudou :>
A ideia é válida, principalmente quando o Spotify não está atrelado ao Last.FM (e consequentemente a pessoa não tem ideia do quanto consumiu na semana, mês, ano etc.) no começo. Mas é legal pontuar essas ocasiões também que fogem até do nosso controle, infelizmente :')
yes i hope this comes soon

wow that is so amazing!
Se nem o lastfm tem acesso ao nosso histórico antes de criarmos a conta no site, o zero vai ter? kkkk cada uma. Sem contar que até onde eu sei, o spotify não disponiliza assim os nossos dados. Eu adoraria ter esses dados pra criar meus charts manuais no cronwnote, mas não sei se um dia vai ter... No mais, vale a pena sonhar.

i think they can allow us since we can make cutom charts, at the end of the day we can insert our own information with custom plays, songs,dates etc. at the end of the day since these are not only our own personal charts but also its fictional so
I really hope this comes soon because my 2025 streaming history as well as my January - May 2026 history was not tracked by last fm and that’s a year and a half of music streaming I would love to be incorporated! I hope they do this soon .
