[Mobile][Friend Feed] Friends Activity on Mobile

Can Spotify impliment a way (like on Mac/PC) to see what everyone else is listening too, for iPhone/Galaxy? I'm interested in seeing other people's taste and more than likely, loving the song a lot. Also, in the process, seeing if that user is online listening, or how long ago they were listening. I would REALLY like to see that on a, hopefully, close by App Update.

Hey folks,



 

Thanks for coming to the Community, and adding your vote to this idea!



 

We're keeping this idea to 'Not Right Now', as this isn't something we have any immediate plans to implement. We appreciate you sharing your thoughts.

 

If we do have any new info to share, rest assured we'll check back in here with a new status.

 



Thanks.

I know this is implemented in the computer but not in smartphones and that the point, my mistake was no explain this, and that's gonna make more people use the app to se their friends what's listening right in your pocket not in a pc, think in the casual people that use only their phones

I don’t even see a reason NOT to have this. Let’s make it happen!

Spotify is the most popular cross-platform music streaming platform, which gives it a unique opportunity to do something Apple Music will never be able to do, and that is Friend Activity across Android and iOS.

Currently, Spotify is leveraging the social aspect to make using the platform more enjoyable by using blends and playlists that can be shared, however there is a way for Spotify to leverage the social aspect further by making Friend Activity available on their mobile versions and by making it more of a core feature.

The Spotify Wrapped is a prime example how the social aspect helps Spotify stay at the top, which would be encouraged even further with the Friend Activity capability for mobile.

If all your friends are sharing music and following each other for music, you will be way more likely to sign up to Spotify so you can be included, than a different service.

Please vote for this feature if you agree, so we can benefit from a more social Spotify platform.

I personally think its super cool to see what my friends are listening to in the moment. Discord has a cool feature where if you click on a mutual friend's profile you can see what they're listening to. Why not add that to spotify too? I think it would be cool. Maybe also add a "Enable" and "Disable" option for that, in case some people don't want it enabled all the time. I think it would give a more social aspect to having followers on spotify, right now it's kind of useless to be following my friends. The only perk is seeing their public playlists, no other usage. This feature would definitely benefit.

The system is a bit slow on the user side. For example, when I follow someone on the Spotify section, the number of followers on my profile remains the same and only changes after a day. The "friend activity" feature should also be available on the mobile version; why can I only see it on the desktop? I think the people who like playlists should also be visible, and I still don't understand why it’s kept hidden. In the future, turning this app into a social media platform could also be great. A chat system could be added where we can chat and share music with our friends. Features like this would make the app stand out even more.
