Last.fm

Track what you listened to, every day

Overview

The Last.fm integration connects via OAuth and collects your recent listening history (scrobbles) each day: track names, artist names, album names, and timestamps. This data is used to build a music section in your daily diary, giving you a record of what you listened to.

Use cases

Automatically logs every track you scrobbled throughout the day
Highlights your most-played artists and albums so you can see your listening patterns
Adds a music section alongside your other daily activities in your diary

Data collected

Scrobbles: track name, artist name, album name, and timestamp for each play
Daily summary: total scrobble count and top artists for the day
Album art URLs (when available) for display context

Only scrobble data for the diary period is collected. Listening history is read-only. No account settings or social data are accessed.

Sample diary excerpt

March 12, 2026

Music

47 scrobbles today across 12 artists.

Top artist: Radiohead (15 plays). Listened to OK Computer front-to-back during the morning commute, then In Rainbows while working.

Also on repeat: Khruangbin (8 plays), Japanese Breakfast (6 plays), and Nujabes (5 plays).

Discovery: First time hearing Ichiko Aoba. Windswept Adan is beautiful.

A Radiohead-heavy day. The afternoon playlist drifted into chill territory with Khruangbin and Nujabes.
