Spotify Closes Acquired Music Game Heardle to Focus on Core Platform Features

Spotify will shut down Heardle, a music guessing game it bought last year, on May 5.
The company wants to devote more resources to improving music discovery on Spotify instead of the separate Heardle app.
Spotify advised Heardle users to save their game statistics by May 4 if they want to keep a record of their scores.
There will be no layoffs as a result of closing Heardle.
Spotify has a history of acquiring companies and later shutting them down to refocus on Spotify's main features.
