Spotify rolls out new sharing features

Spotify has announced that it will start rolling out new sharing features to Android and iOS users globally.

As per the platform, starting May 10, Spotify makes it easier for users to share track or podcast episodes through social media channels. With that said, users globally may look forward to three new features, such timestamp sharing, an improved Canvas feature, and an updated sharing menu on mobile with a clearer layout. Check out more information about the features below.

• New podcast timestamp sharing – Previously, users could only share the link to an entire episode. With new podcast timestamp sharing, users can now share podcast episodes beginning at a particular moment. To share a timestamp, just tap the “share” button while listening to the episode, use the “switch to share” feature at the current playtime, and then select where you want to share the content to. Then, those on the receiving end just need to tap the shared link to start listening.
