Spotify Available in Shazam's Apps for Android and iPhone

Today, Shazam and Spotify announced that they teamed up to offer both of their services

to users of Android and iOS devices. Through the new partnership, Spotify's popular music

service will be integrated with Shazam's free and premium Apps for iPhone, iPod touch and

Android.

Basically, Shazam users would have the possibility to access Spotify very easily, through a

new 'Play in Spotify' feature, so that they could go to the service instantly, to start listening

to the full track that they tagged, or which was discovered within Shazam from

recommendations or the Shazam charts.

"Great news, Spotify is now available for

Shazam

's premium Apps on iPhone, iPod touch -

including (SHAZAM)RED - and Android," Spotify announced via a recent post on their

website.

"Just tap the new "Play in Spotify" feature to go direct from Shazam to our Spotify Mobile

app where you can immediately listen to the full track and explore more music from the

tagged artist."

Users of Shazam and Spotify would benefit from full playback of tracks through a greatly

integrated experience on the free and premium applications that Shazam offers to Android

and Apple's iOS devices.

The new feature was announced as being integrated with the Spotify Premium App in the

UK, Sweden, Norway, Finland, France, Spain and the Netherlands.

"It's now even easier to get instant satisfaction for those times when you want to know the

track that is playing and then learn more about the artist. Just touch to

Shazam

and then

play in Spotify. Click here for more information on downloading Shazam for your phone,"

Spotify continues.

According to Shazam, the free application, which was limited to only five tags per month, is

set to receive the new feature in the first quarter of the ongoing year.

Users of premium Apps Shazam Encore and (SHAZAM) RED would receive access to the

new feature starting with today, being able to "combine their ability to access unlimited

tagging with the new 'Play in Spotify' feature for an unparalleled and unrestricted mobile

music discovery and streaming service."
