Spotify will introduce Radio on Windows Phone
The fate of Windows Phone users is to wait patiently. And it is that despite being one of the fastest growing platforms, it is still the third in contention, which leads it to receive news later than Android users and iOS Something that is repeated in the case of the music service of Spotify , which has just announced the news that the next update will bring prepared for the platform Windows PhoneVery interesting news but still far from what users of other platforms can already enjoy.
This is an update with important changes in the official application of Spotify The main one is its design change, which leaves behind the simplicity of white and the metro style to accommodate what is seen on Android and iOS In this way, it accepts black as the main background color, giving a much more elegant result. It will also have a drop-down menu to access all the playlists and functions, giving priority on its main screen to the playlists playback, to start listening to music as soon as you start the tool.
However, the most notable changes come with new and long-awaited functions.Thus, along with the visual redesign, the Radio function also appears. This means having of radio stations customized according to the tastes or preferred artists of the user. A good way to not worry about what music is going to play next, acting as a random and automatic playlist focused on a genre, artist or group you like to user.
In addition, there are also new ways to find and discover new music and not limit yourself to the same groups and artists. This is Browse that is added to the search option, taking the user to a screen that shows trends to find out what is being most listened to by the rest of the user , or what just landed new in this service. And along with it, Discover A section where you can find recommendations of all kinds to find new styles and artists.
The bad news is that, along with all these new features that Spotify has prepared for users Windows Phone still missing the ability to listen to music for free, without a subscription Premium Something they have Confirmed to be working, but will arrive later. Again making users of this platform wait for something that is already available on Android and iOS. And it seems that the Microsoft operating system, although it is increasingly taken into account, still does not receive the same attention as the majority platforms.
In any case, the update is set to hit Windows Phone in the spring, with no official date yet specified. An update that will be especially useful for users with a Premium or paid account to be able to listen to all the music they want in a new way and through a renewed application .
