The application Shazam keeps looking for ways to please its users beyond just hunting for songs. And it is that it has been victim of its own success, often being relegated to the mere use of recognizing the music that is playing to collect dust later among the rest of theapplications until it is needed again. That is why it seeks to grow and satisfy other user needs, such as recognizing ads to show extra information or creating playlists with all the songs hunted.Something that is valid both for the users of the well-known service Spotify, or for Rdio But what? how to do it?
The process is very simple, and is now open to free users of Spotify That is, it is not necessary to pay for the Premium version to take advantage of this functionality. Of course, you have to be a user and have both applications installed in the terminal. Or at least add the Spotify user account through the Settings menu, where you can connect after entering the necessary data and confirming the permissions.
From this point on the process is very simple and natural Thus, you just have to recognize a song in the usual way Just press the Shazam icon and listen to the song for just a few seconds for this application to do its job task.Once it has recognized the track, artist or band and displays all the information on the screen, it's just two more steps away.
The first is to click on the icon + in the upper right corner of the screen. In this way, a notification appears at the bottom of the screen with the option Add to Spotify lists After clicking on the notification comes the last step:select one of the lists previously created by the user And, as a plus point, Shazam offers the possibility to select the destination playlist of the recognized song, instead of ending up filling your own playlist with all sorts of songs.
The only thing left to do is choose which list will host the new discovery. Of course, without being able to play the song from ShazamAnd it is that the service continues to function as a mere intermediary. It is necessary to go to Spotify to find there, in the chosen playlist, the last hunt of the application.
