Spotify is changing the way we interact with friends on the platform.
A new feature called “Tastebuds” allows users to explore the musical tastes their friends.
Until this point, Spotify has seriously lacked on features to allow friends to interact the platform. “Friend Activity” has been available for quite some time, but only desktop. Music can also be shared music SMS, Facebook Messenger, and more.
