The Amp Creator Fund is a program focused on giving qualifying Amp creators a chance to earn money by doing what they do best: create. Rewards aren’t just for creators with big communities, but creators with small, tight-knit ones, too. Funds will be rewarded monthly, recognizing qualifying creators based on listener engagement and show performance metrics. It’s our way of recognizing the hard work of Amp’s community of creators.

It’s a vibe. Vibes tags can now be added to shows, to make it easier to for your listeners to find a show that matches their mood. Playing music to relax on the couch on Sunday night? That’s a chill vibe, mark it. Or maybe your pregame playlist is too good not to be shared. Pick a few tags that connect to your show and help listeners find you.

And, it’s not old, it’s vintage. Decades tags can now be added to shows, so you can create or discover shows themed around a particular era.

You can now can enable Closed Captions by tapping the three dots menu on any show page.
