Music streaming service Spotify has announced a new integration that enable users who have the Snapchat app to share music to the multimedia messaging app.
The move, according to Spotify, will allow users to share a song, playlist, artist profile or podcast either directly to their friends on Snapchat or Snapchat story.
“With this new way of sharing, it’s quicker and easier for friends to share what they’re listening to and for others to start listening,” Spotify said. “You’ll be able to combine the two seamlessly and share what you’re listening to in a Snap story.”
Here is how Spotify users can share music with friends or post directly to a Snap story:
- Tap the “share” menu (three dots on the right of the screen) while you’re listening to any song, album, artist, or podcast.
- Select “Snapchat” from the dropdown list.
- Snapchat will open a new Snap with the full album art included.
- Edit and send whether to a few people or to your Story.
If a friend sends you a Snap with a song, playlist, artist profile, or podcast, you can start streaming by using the following steps:
- Swipe up from the bottom of the screen.
- Tap the context card with song, artist, playlist, or podcast info.
- Spotify will open and play away.
