Users have been able to explore music on Instagram through Spotify for quite some time. For example, when you share a song from the streaming application, the integration with Instagram is quite nice and allows others to obtain information about the topic or even play the song on their Spotify.
«We know that music is all around you and sometimes that means right on your social networks. That’s why, starting today, Spotify is excited to introduce a new integration with Instagram that makes it even easier to instantly capture and add songs to Spotify from Instagram with just a simple tap,” Spotify explained to 9to5Mac.
Now both companies take their partnership a little further, offering a button to “add,” with just a couple of clicks, any song you see on Instagram directly to your favorites list in your Spotify library. This applies to tracks you see posted on Stories, Reels or Carousels.
