Released on April 23, 2006, today, Spotify is one of the most recognizable and used applications for listening to music around the world. As of December 2018, the company had more than 3,500 workers. The Spotify platform is available on almost all modern platforms, such as Linux, iOS, Android, and Microsoft Windows.

Design and Usability 10/10

Today, there is a tendency to change the applications’ themes from light colors to dark. But Spotify is utilizing the dark theme from the beginning. And we liked it! The main menu is on the bottom, and it has three icons: 

  • The house: return to the home page;
  • A magnifier: opens the Search page;
  • Three lines: open the account page with your favorite music and created playlists.

Although the application has millions of different songs and podcasts, it is very easy to navigate and search for what you want. The interface is very intuitive and clean.

Key Functions 10/10

Spotify is an audio streaming platform that means that it has a large library of songs and albums from popular artists. The application has a powerful search mechanism that allows you to browse by different parameters, including artist, song name, genre. Also, users can create their own playlists, edit, delete, and share. In addition to popular songs, users can also listen to podcasts. All content on the platform is already divided into categories and genres in advance.

A distinctive feature of Spotify is its stunning machine learning algorithm, which generates recommendations for users. It is based on two main principles:

  • Offer songs similar to those that the user listened to before;
  • Suggest songs that other users with the same musical preferences have listened to.

Security & App Purchases 9/10

Spotify, like many other popular applications, collects and analyzes your personal data. Then, it is used for ads adjustment and future sales. On the app’s download page, you can find the link to Spotify’s Privacy Policy. Please, read it carefully before downloading and installing the app.

Spotify is completely free for download on all platforms, but it has premium subscriptions. The free version allows you to listen to music and podcasts online only and with the advertising. With a premium subscription, you can turn off the ads and enjoy the music. The available plans are on the site and inside the application.

    Pros

    Large music base; Great recommendations; Clean design;

    Cons

    Not available in all countries; The subscriptions are relatively expensive compared to other popular audio streaming platforms;

Conclusion

Spotify provides users DRM-protected music and podcasts. The platform had more than 271 million monthly active users, around 50% of them are paying subscribers. The app is not available in all countries; the operating area includes most European countries, the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and only parts of Africa and Asia. You can download the application on your device or listening to music through the browser.
