‘Touch Preview’ Now Available On Spotify?
Music streaming giants, Spotify have announced that a new gesture command has been added to its iOS application known as ‘Touch Preview’.
What is ‘Touch Preview’, you ask? This where the user can listen to a snippet of a song, album or playlist by holding their finder down on the screen. They can then save the tracks into the ‘Your Music’ section if they like what they hear, with a swipe.
“For decades, music fans have had to rely on a rather clumsy way of scanning through songs, albums and playlists. With Touch Preview we’re taking music discovery to the next level, offering our listeners a unique and entirely new way of finding out what to listen to. It means less time looking for the perfect music, and more time actually listening to it.”
(Sten Garmark, VP of Product at Spotify)
The feature is now available on the iOS version of the Spotify app, with a roll out to other platforms planned in the near future.
