Spotify, like many modern media services, includes a built-in social networking feature. Spotify lets you find and add friends, so you have access to what they’re listening to.<\/p>
Additionally, fans can follow their favorite artists’ Spotify accounts to stay up-to-date on new music releases.<\/p>
But in the meantime, here’s how to find someone on Spotify, whether you want to keep tabs on your favorite Ska band or just to evaluate your best friend’s music taste.<\/p>
Finding Facebook friends takes a little longer in the Spotify app for Android and iOS than it does in the desktop app, and you can’t watch live activity that way. Nonetheless, it works. Here are the steps to follow: <\/p>
If you’ve already linked your Facebook account, you should see a list of friends who also use Spotify from this point. You can add a friend by tapping the Add friend button next to any specific person, or use the Follow All option.<\/p>
You’ll need Spotify’s standalone app for Windows or Mac to find your Facebook friends on the desktop. There is no web player available.<\/p>
Start by checking that your Facebook account is linked to Spotify. After that, in the Friend Activity sidebar on the right side of the interface, click the Add Friends button. If you don’t see that bar, click the icon to the left of your profile icon.<\/p>
If you have Facebook connected, you will see a list of friends who also use Spotify. Add a friend button next to anyone you like. Remember that you can also block Spotify friends if your relationships deteriorate.<\/p>
You can add your Spotify friends in a few simple steps. All you need is a username, which can be yours or a friend’s.<\/p>
Remember that a Spotify username is usually a jumbled combination of words and numbers. Your username is assigned to you when you sign up for an account and cannot be changed. You can, however, change your display name, which appears on your profile and is visible to your friends once they follow you.<\/p>
People rarely remember their usernames because they are a random string of text. Here’s how to find yours:<\/p>
If you prefer to listen to music on your computer and have a Spotify account, you have two options. You can either download the app or use the Web Player to access it. However, you must use the desktop app to add friends. This is how it’s done:<\/p>
That’s all. It’s worth noting that the person you added will not be notified that you followed them.<\/p>
One exciting feature of Spotify is the ability to view your friends’ activity. Any songs that your friends are currently listening to will be displayed on the right side of your screen in a sidebar. Keep in mind that the desktop app only allows you to see your friends’ activity.<\/p>
It’s a fantastic way to find new music. Furthermore, if you find a song or a playlist that you like on a friend’s profile, you can save it so that it appears on your profile as well.<\/p>
Adding friends to your phone is similar to adding them to your computer. Here’s how to add friends to Spotify on Android:<\/p>
