Many users are interested in how to view a friend’s hidden VKontakte audio recordings, because the very fact that he hid them only stimulates curiosity. If a person hides his musical preferences, it means that there are some personal or “special” compositions in his playlist, which, theoretically, will help others learn something unexpected about him.
We will immediately bring to your attention that if you are interested in how to view hidden VKontakte audio recordings from a friend in a legal way, you will fail. The VKontakte developers simply did not provide such an option because they care about the reliability of private settings on their site. However, as you know, demand creates supply, so people have found loopholes with which they can still watch hidden audio recordings. In this article we will tell you in detail how to watch private audio recordings in VK in all available ways.
Please note that in the article we will talk about all possible ways, even not entirely honest ones, to ensure that the material is as complete as possible and you do not have to look for where else to look.
However, we do not approve of dubious methods, and we warn that such actions may result in your profile being blocked or becoming exposed to viruses and scammers. Be careful and think twice about whether hidden audio recordings are worth the risk.
Track adding audio recordings manually
So, how to look at a friend’s VKontakte audio recordings if they are hidden - first of all, let’s talk about honest ways.
Previously, you could enter a song in the search and see which friend added it to himself, even if later he made it hidden. This method was only suitable if you needed not just to look at hidden audio recordings, but to find out whether a specific track was in the playlist. The method allowed us to view selective records and took a very long time. Today this feature no longer works and it will no longer be possible to view the secret list of songs using it.
In general, the automatic mode is good for its speed. But sometimes you can find more information manually. This is true even if you want to see another person's hidden friends. Although it is clear that there are other solutions to this problem. But this is a topic for another discussion.
How to watch a friend’s VKontakte audio recordings if they are hidden
Already today, many are asking the question of how to view information that is hidden from them on a friend’s page. Where can I find hidden audio recordings on a friend's page?
Since such topics are discussed quite often, a lot of answers can be found. But not all of them are correct. Moreover, most of the proposed methods are prohibited by the administration of the social network.
Below is an example of what a user page looks like with open and closed audio recordings.
In the first case, by viewing the Vk user page on the left, under the audio section, you can see the user’s added songs. The second page shown in the picture also has this section, but there are no songs in it.
Sometimes there are cases when a person simply does not save audio recordings on his page. But this rarely happens. Mostly it is simply hidden from outsiders. And the reason for this is usually the reluctance to advertise one’s musical preferences.
The Most Effective Ways to View Hidden Music Audios
Recently, a specially developed VKbot program was used for this purpose. But now the program malfunctions and simply does not fulfill its purpose. But the quality and safety of such programs, including this one, is not only in doubt, but is a real myth.
Another common method is now popular. To view hidden audio, you need to hack the code of your friend's page. To do this you need:
- Go to the page of the person who hid the data.
- Copy his identification code. In other words, the page address. It is located at the top, in the address bar.
- After this, you need to return to your page and go to the section of your audio recordings.
- Find the desired user and left-click on his avatar.
- In the window that appears, select the “View element code” command.
After this, a new window will appear in which you can replace the existing code with the previously copied one. After this, hidden audio recordings should open automatically.
But the VKontakte administration does not support this method either. Therefore, if it worked before, it has now become another myth.
How does the VKontakte administration feel about such attempts to hack the privacy of accounts?

These and many other fictitious methods simply mislead the user. The site developers took into account all such attempts and protected VKontakte.
The main goal was to protect the interests of each person and they did it well. Now you can safely protect yourself from unnecessary crowds. Therefore, an attempt to interfere in a friend’s personal space may reach the point where the account is simply blocked after some repeated warnings.
Any scripts and programs for hacking are monitored, and their use entails unpleasant punishments. In this article I tried to lay out all the information on this topic, if I forgot something, please write about it in the comments.
You can track your contacts' music updates:2. Updates section
- Log in to your profile;
- Go to the “Audio Recordings” section;
- Find the “Friend Updates” button at the top;
- Click and explore the results.
This way, you will be able to view your friend’s music on VKontakte, if it is hidden, only if he has just uploaded it and did not have time to hide the playlist. In this case, you will have a few minutes to study the news. You understand that a healthy person will not constantly sit in front of the screen and monitor the actions of his friends, therefore, we are sending this method to the furnace.
Personal request
The most adequate, in our opinion, way to view a friend’s hidden music on VKontakte is to ask him to open access for you. Sometimes this path turns out to be the most effective and fastest. Your friend will need to do the following:
- Go to your profile;
- Click on the small avatar in the upper right;
- Select the “Settings” section;
- Go to the “Privacy” block;
- Find the line “Who can see my audio recordings”;
- Select “Some friends” and add you to the list
Of course, finding out hidden VK audio recordings from a friend, if you are not very close, will not work this way. However, we still recommend that you muster up the courage and contact the person directly.
Via page code
We've looked at all the legal ways to access hidden playlists, now let's move on to dubious methods.
Previously, it was possible to watch hidden (closed) audio recordings on VKontakte through the user’s page code, but now VK developers have patched up this loophole. We won’t focus our attention and describe the algorithm in detail—it doesn’t work today. But an attempt to test it may attract attention and lead to a temporary account ban. By the way, this method was risky before and was not always effective. At least if a person completely closed their page from outside guests, the page code method did not work.
How to watch a friend’s VKontakte audio recordings if they are hidden
Not long ago, it became fashionable on the social network VKontakte to hide certain information from other users.
Thanks to the updated privacy settings, you can hide photos, certain friends, some information on your page from all or some users, and even personal audio recordings.
You can hide such information not only from your friends, but also from all users of the social network. Some people prefer to keep information open only to friends, hiding it from others. The audio recordings themselves are hidden from strangers in the following way.
Plugins and extensions
Just yesterday, a special extension for the VKOpt browser allowed you to see hidden VK audio recordings from a friend if the music was closed, but today this option is no longer supported. On the Internet you can find a dozen different add-ons and utilities that supposedly provide access to hidden audio recordings. We assure you, none of these programs work - trust our experience. Most of the plugins require authorization through your VKontakte profile, which means you will provide your personal data to someone. Remember about the possibility of downloading viruses or other malicious software.
Cracking programs
In simple terms, we are talking about hacking services. Perhaps they will help you watch private audio on a friend’s VK, but who can guarantee the reliability of the proposed software?
- There is a possibility that your device may be infected with viruses;
- Your page can be stolen and used for personal purposes;
- Paid programs may, as a result, turn out to be dummies;
- If you are lucky and the hacker turns out to be a worker, be prepared to be blocked for life and delete the page if you are noticed. And it will be very difficult for you to restore a deleted page.
So we looked at all the ways you can listen to hidden audio recordings of friends in VKontakte. The conclusion from all of the above is the following - it is best to ask a friend to give you access. Plugins don't work, tracking each track is too long and tedious, and hacking programs are too dangerous.
How to view hidden music in VK - not a BUG, but a feature
Today we will talk about how to view hidden music in VK for any person, be it a friend or just a user. There is often a situation when friends hide music and do not want to open access. There is a fairly simple solution, although it is not the most convenient for mass use. I would like to say right away that the VK administration does not consider this a bug. In their opinion, this is a “feature” that should not be eliminated. There are a lot of such functions and none of them are going to be eliminated. A small list of hidden functions in VK:
- Bug with VKontakte document search
- Unnoticed deletion of friends
- Quick name change
- Recovering a Deleted Message
- View hidden friends
- Hide more than 30 friends
- Delete all “deleted” ones with one click
- View hidden music

Is this necessary?

- You will see the blocks: Mutual friends, Gifts, Photo albums, Interesting pages, Videos and, at the very end - Audio recordings;

So, now you know how to find out hidden VKontakte music from a friend and are warned about all the pitfalls of dubious methods. We still recommend personal contact. Honestly explain to your friend the reason why you need to look at his secret recordings, promise not to disclose the information, and offer access to your private data in return. Use all your persuasion skills, believe in the result and everything will definitely work out!
How to view hidden VKontakte audio recordings from a friend
By legal method, you can view the full list of tracks only if your friend has not limited its viewing or has limited it for everyone except friends or specific individuals. For this it is enough:
- open the user’s direct page and move to the “Music” section (the general track list or albums that can be listened to will be indicated here);
- go to the news and updates section (if a friend’s albums are not closed for a social network user, they can be viewed directly in the feed; for convenience, it is recommended to use the search bar; hidden VK audio can only be viewed separately using the above method).
Viewing private video and audio files of the interlocutor is possible by agreement. To gain access, the user must ask to open the playlist. The likelihood of receiving a refusal is high, but for now this is the only way to freely gain access to all the interlocutor’s documents stored in Vk.
