Spotify finishes recovering a function that it suppressed in two thousand and nineteen

Spotify finishes recovering a function that it suppressed in two thousand and nineteen
A peu comme la renaissance musicale de Hollywood ou le retour décennial des pulls à col roulé à la mode, our applications préférées font également l'objet de fonctionnalités qui vont, viennent et reviennent all au long de leur durée de vie charged de mises à day. Spotify, it turns out, is no different. The music streaming service added the ability to swipe down to locate songs in playlists and favorite songs on Android devices more than a couple of years after the feature was removed. It's not a game changer, but the inability to swipe down to find Android phones and tablets has been a major glitch for users, as evidenced by nearly 8.6.40.929 likes on a discussion forum request to bring back the functionality. . Thanks to an invisible software update (app version XNUMX), Android users no longer have to navigate menus to find a particular track or filter their music by title, artist, or album. It should be noted that this is not an official communication from Spotify, but rather we noticed it through the eagle eyes of Android Police, so the feature may only appear as part of a limited test sample of users. However, we doubt. The update is going to fall like music to the ears of Spotify Android users who have bemoaned the app's improved functionality on iOS devices over the years. For example, aside from the previously superior ability to browse playlists by swiping down, iOS users can also swipe left and right on tracks to like, skip or well add to the waiting line. No track sweep for Android users yet, but rather small steps, right?

"Hey, Spotify"

Aside from adding old features, the Spotify team sometimes likes to add new features. One of them is the addition of a Spotify Activation Passkey, which lets users activate the app on their phone or smartphone and monitor their music hands-free by saying "Hey, Spotify." The feature, essentially an app-only version of Apple's "Hey, Siri" feature, has been rolled out to multiple users, though it should soon be available to everyone as part of a larger feature update. A wake word not only represents an improvement in the functionality of the music streamer, but can also be a step in the right direction for its accessibility. Not everyone is going to have the technical know-how to set up Spotify integration with an external voice assistant, so having one in the Spotify app effectively cuts out the door in this regard. Hopefully Android users won't be left behind on this one too... Subscribe to Spotify today: Via AndroidPolice
