How Plays Are Counted
What counts as a play, how duplicates are handled, and what's excluded.
A play is counted once per unique listener — rapidly replaying the same session does not inflate the count.
Rules
- Registered users — plays are counted per user account. Replaying the same session within its playback length counts as a single play.
- Share link recipients — plays are counted per recipient — by email address, or by IP address when no email is available.
- Session owners — your own plays on sessions you uploaded are not counted.
- Compare view — plays made while using the Compare feature are not counted.
Why this matters
These rules ensure that play counts reflect real listener engagement — not the owner looping their own session, and not inflated numbers from the Compare workflow.
