Spotify now lets you swipe on songs to learn more about them

Spotify Users Can Now Dive Deeper into Their Favorite Tunes with Swipeable 'About the Song' Feature

Music streaming giant Spotify has introduced a new feature called "About the Song" that allows fans to delve deeper into their favorite tracks. The innovative feature, which is currently available in the US, UK, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, and Australia as a beta tool, brings stories and context into the listening experience.

The Now Playing View now boasts swipeable story cards that provide insight into the meaning behind each song, courtesy of third-party sources. Users simply scroll down to reveal the card and then swipe to explore more interesting details and behind-the-scenes moments. The company promises this feature will be a game-changer for music lovers looking to gain a deeper understanding of their favorite songs.

While Premium users can currently enjoy this new feature on both iOS and Android, it's not yet widely available across all platforms. Spotify has been expanding its offerings in recent months with the introduction of group messaging and prompt-based playlists. This latest update is just the latest example of the platform's commitment to enhancing the user experience.

It's like having a personal music doc πŸ“š. And the swipeable thing is so cool, it's like I'm getting a little surprise with every song 🎁. The more they expand this feature across all platforms, the better! Can you imagine being able to access all this sweet info on-the-go? Game changer for music lovers like me, for sure πŸ’»
 
I'm so stoked about this new feature on Spotify πŸŽ΅πŸ’‘! It's like, totally cool that they're adding more depth to the music listening experience.

I'm so down for this new "About the Song" feature on Spotify 🀩! It's like, finally, we can get some context behind our fave tunes that aren't just about the catchy beat or whatever 🎡. I mean, have you seen those story cards? So cool! You swipe and then you're like, "Oh, this song is actually about heartbreak" 😭 or "This one's from a album written by a total genius". It's all so fascinating! And yeah, Premium users get to enjoy it now, but I'm hoping it comes to the rest of us soon too 🀞. The more ways we can dive deeper into music, the better, right? πŸ’»
 
I mean, I'm all for music lovers getting more info about their fave tunes, but swipeable cards? πŸ€” It just feels like a gimmick, you know? Like they're trying too hard to be Instagrammable or something. And what's with the third-party sources, though? Can't they just have it in-house like most other companies? I don't wanna have to download some new app just to get more info about my songs... 😐
 
omg i was so excited to see this feature roll out 🀩 i mean who doesn't wanna know more about their fave songs? it's like having a tiny little history lesson built right into the app πŸ“š and swipeable cards are such a great touch, feels like an instant win for spotify πŸ‘ i'm curious if they'll add any exclusive content from artists themselves tho πŸ’‘
 
I'm so done with this new feature πŸ™„. Like, who needs more info about their songs? Can't they just let us enjoy the music without being spoon-fed all the juicy details? It sounds like a total distraction from actually listening to the tunes πŸ˜’. And what's up with only Premium users getting access to it on iOS and Android? Rich people get treated better, I guess πŸ’Έ. This is just another example of how Spotify's trying to nickel-and-dime its users for extra cash πŸ’°.
 
just got this news and I'm low-key hyped 😎! did you know that 80% of spotify users listen to music on repeat, and 90% of them use it as a mood booster? 🀯 anyways, this 'about the song' feature is gonna take my listening experience to the next level. I mean, who doesn't wanna know the story behind their fave tunes? πŸ” stats show that 95% of users are more likely to engage with music if they have a deeper understanding of its context... pretty cool, right? πŸ€“
 
I don't think this new feature is gonna change lives or anything πŸ€”. I mean, we already know what a song means, right? Who needs more info about that? And swipeable cards? Sounds like something my grandma would use on her flip phone πŸ˜‚. Also, why did they have to limit it to premium users first? Can't they see people are just gonna try it out for free and then cancel because they don't need all those extra features πŸ€‘.
 
omg i'm so down for this new feature 🀩, like i was always curious about what inspired my favorite songs, you know? 🎢 it's gonna be so cool to swipe through those story cards and learn more about the artists and their intentions behind the music πŸ’‘ meanwhile, not a fan of having to upgrade to premium just to use this feature tho 😐 hopefully they make it available on all platforms soon πŸ‘

Umm... swipeable story cards? Sounds like too much hassle for me πŸ™„. I mean, what if you don't wanna know all that extra info about a song? Can't we just stick with the original playlist and enjoy our tunes without getting distracted by unnecessary details? And what's up with this beta tool thingy?
