Spotify and Instagram are collaborating on an MSN-like feature for real-time song sharing

Streaming apps like Apple Music and Spotify already offer some type of integration with Instagram, allowing users to easily share the song they're listening to in a post or Story. 

Share Spotify songs on Instagram in real time

Essentially, this feature will allow users to connect their Instagram account to Spotify. The streaming platform will then automatically create a new note with the song playing on the user's Spotify. Other users can see these notes when they open the DM tab or enter the user's profile.

App developer and researcher Alessandro Paluzzi discovered the new "Share from Spotify" feature. A message explains to users that they can "continuously share what they are listening to" and can also "stop sharing at any time." The feature is currently unavailable to users, but everything suggests it will be announced soon.

It's worth noting that Instagram users can now share songs in a note, but you'll have to do it manually for each song you want to share.

The first time you read about this new feature, you will immediately remember the old Microsoft Messenger (commonly known as MSN), which also had a feature that allowed you to show your friends what song you were listening to at that moment. The idea of ​​restoring this feature sounds quite interesting.

Unfortunately, it looks like Apple Music users will be left behind, at least for now. Hopefully Apple will also develop a similar feature in the future.
