News & Reviews:   Spotify

Metaverse is something that many tech companies are trying to build nowadays, and big sharks like Meta and Microsoft already introduced their ideas earlier for how to connect people in a different way. Until now, Spotify has also jumped on the bandwagon, creating its metaverse via Roblox with the name 'Spotify Island'.

Google has announced that it will allow developers the option to offer third-party payment options for apps that is available on the Google Play Store. The pilot programme for the move will start in South Korea with the music streaming app Spotify.

Shared via an Android Developers blogpost yesterday, Google announced that it will allow Android users to select payment systems other than its own soon. Furthermore, it will only start with Spotify and other trusted partners first due to security concerns.

When a feature is popular, there will inevitably be others that get inspired by it. There are plenty of examples in the industry, with Snapchat's stories feature being one of them. This time around, Spotify seems to have been inspired by a TikTok feature.

Quite often, some people enjoy the soundtracks more than the movie or TV series. Unfortunately, you usually need to buy an album to listen to the soundtracks. But what if you could listen to all of your favourite Netflix shows' soundtracks in one spot with Spotify (pun intended?)

If you've been following recent music trends, you should know that Adele has made a comeback with her latest album, '30'. By making her fans follow the storyline, the star had requested Spotify to remove the shuffle option for her album. Surprisingly, Spotify acknowledged the request and took the shuffle option down. However, it looks like the music streaming service is also doing the same to the others besides Adele's album.

When we listen to music, most of us also want to know the lyrics. But if you've used Spotify, you may have noticed that not everyone seems to have access to music lyrics on the platform. However, the company has now released the feature for all.

If you're using Spotify and want to block someone, your wish is finally coming true. Technically, it is doable when you contact customer service but you can now do it yourself on your desktop or mobile app.

For working adults, it's not too hard to pay for a few subscription services like Netflix or Spotify. In particular, Spotify Premium is a must if you get annoyed by ads. But what if you don't have an income? Well, Spotify now has a cheaper alternative for you.

Do you go for jogs without a mobile device but often wish you had some music? The days of MP3 players are over, but now you can listen to music with just a smartwatch on your wrist! Specifically, this is made possible with the latest Spotify update.

As one of the biggest music streaming services, Spotify has a lot of features to keep its large userbase happy. Of course, it also has to make money and premium subscriptions alone aren't enough. As such, the company has been looking into other areas like live events.
