The streaming platform war is not limited to video streaming platforms only, but is also happening between music streaming platforms like Spotify and Apple Music.
To ensure existing customers remain loyal, Spotify has not stopped developing various features and functions and adding more exciting content offerings such as podcasts and audiobooks.
Recently, Spotify is seen to offer a Community feature where it allows users to interact with their friends who also subscribe to Spotify. In this Community, users can see music that other friends are actively listening to and also see updates to their playlists.
This feature is different from the existing Friends Activity, which has limited functionality. In this Community it will have a newly updated playlist in the top row and below there will be a list of active music being played by other friends.
The music that a friend is listening to, the user can see through the animation on the song title. If no active friend is listening it will tell when it was last played. This feature is currently distributed randomly to selected users. Not sure when it will be widely distributed.
