So you want to add friends on Spotify. You can do it in a few different ways, but the easiest way is by following them. Here are step-by-step instructions for adding friends on Spotify.
When you first open Spotify, you may be wondering how to add friends. After all, what's the point of having a Spotify account if you can't share your music with your friends?
Luckily, it's not difficult to add friends on Spotify, and in this blog post, we'll show you how to do it. Keep reading for more information!
View your Spotify username:
It can be not easy to find friends on Spotify if you don't know their username. Unlike many other social media platforms, Spotify uses a text string as a username rather than a display name.
This means that unless you know the other person's username, you won't be able to find them. The good news is that your Spotify username is usually easy to find. It is listed in your profile, which can be accessed by clicking on the profile icon in the top right corner of the Spotify homepage. Once you've found your username, you can start adding friends and listening to music together.
Add friends on your desktop:
If you're using Spotify on a desktop app, there are two ways to add friends.
- The first way is to find your friend's username and type it into the search bar. Once you've found your friend's gear icon, click the “Add Friend” button.
- The second way to add friends on Spotify is by syncing your Facebook account with Spotify. To do this, go to the “Options” menu in the top right corner of the Spotify homepage and click “Settings.”
- In the “Settings” menu, select the “Social” tab and click the “Connect to Facebook” button. Once you've connected your Facebook account, all your Facebook friends who also use Spotify will be automatically added to your list of Spotify friends.
Add friends on Android:
If you're using Spotify on an Android mobile phone, adding friends is a little different.
Step 1: First, open the Spotify app and tap the “Home” button in the bottom left corner of the screen.
Step 2: Next, tap the “Profile” button in the bottom right corner of the screen.
Once you're on your user profile page, tap the “Friends” button near the top of the screen. On the next page, you'll see a list of your Facebook friends who also use Spotify. Tap the “ADD” button next to any friends you want to add to your Spotify list.
Add friends on iOS:
Adding friends on Spotify if you're using an iOS device is similar to adding friends on an Android device.
Step 1: First, open the Spotify app and tap the “Home” button in the bottom left corner of the screen.
Step 2: Next, tap the “Profile” button in the bottom right corner of the screen.
Step 3: Once you're on your profile page, tap the “Friends” button near the top of the screen.
Step 4: On the next page, you'll see a list of your Facebook friends who also use Spotify. Tap the “ADD” button next to any friends you want to add to your Spotify family.
Follow the artist:
The most popular way to add your friends on Spotify is by following the artist. To do this:
Step 1: Click on the artist's profile page and click the “Follow” button.
Step 2: Once you follow the artist, all of their fans will be added to your list of Spotify friends.
This is a great way to find new songs, and it's also a great way to support your favorite artists. If you're unsure who to follow, we recommend starting with some of your favorite songs.
How to bind Facebook and Spotify to add friends
If you have a Facebook account, you can bind it to your Spotify family account to add friends. To do this,
Step 1: Go to the “Options” menu in the top right corner of the Spotify homepage and click “Settings.”
Step 2: In the “Settings” menu, select the “Social” tab and click the “Connect to Facebook” button.
Once you've connected your Facebook account, all your Facebook friends who also use Spotify will be automatically added to your list of Spotify friends.
How to unfollow a friend on Spotify
If you want to unfollow a friend on Spotify, go to their profile page and click the “Following” button. Once you've unfollowed a friend, they will no longer appear on your list of Spotify friends and will no longer access your cool music.
How to block or report someone on Spotify
If you want to block or report someone on Spotify;
Step 1: Go to their profile page and click the “Options” menu in the top right corner of the screen.
Step 2: In the “Options” menu, select “Block User” or “Report User.”
Blocking someone will prevent them from being able to see your profile, listen to your library of songs, or add you as a friend. Reporting someone will send a message to Spotify's team of moderators. They will review the report and take appropriate action.
