Since short-form videos are becoming extremely common these days, it's not unusual to discover new songs and artists on apps like TikTok and instagram. Now, instagram has started rolling out a Spotify integration that will let you add songs you listen to in posts and reels directly to the audio streaming app. instagram-add-song-spotify/” rel=”nofollow noopener” target=”_blank” data-ylk=”slk:9to5Mac;cpos:3;pos:1;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas” class=”link “>9to5Mac has reported. If an instagram post uses a song and is linked at the bottom of the screen, tap the song name to go to its audio preview page. There you will find a new button that says “Add” with the Spotify logo right next to the audio debugger.
When you tap the Add button, the song will be added to the “Songs You Like” in your Spotify library. You'll have to link your Spotify account to your instagram the first time you do it, but after that it becomes a one-tap process. The feature is now coming to all users around the world. In August, mobile developer Alessandro Paluzzi found another type of integration between the two apps in development. That feature would allow instagram users to continually share what they listen to on Spotify, which would appear as notes above their profile photo.
TikTok has had the ability to add songs heard in videos to its music streaming library since last year. Their version of the feature works not only with Spotify, but also with Apple Music and amazon Music.
