About this app

If you have a Google Pixel Phone and Spotify Premium.

Add to a playlist using the Google Pixel's 'Now Playing' ambient feature. When your Pixel device detects a song is playing, that song (if found on the Now Playing database) will be added to a Spotify Playlist.

Features:
- No ads.
- No duplicate songs.

Ratings and reviews

Appears to be straightforward to setup. Connect to Spotify, enable notifications, and hit synchronize within the app. However it does not work for my device and operating system as the playlist remains empty and the app does not show anything in the Music page. If it works in a future update I will change my rating, as this app does exactly what I feel What's Listening should have innately.

I'd love to use this but access to all notifications is too much. If it were open source, I would probably gladly accept after taking a look at the code, but it's not worth the risk. Though it may not have been previously possible to gain permissions to more specific subsets notifications, it looks like that's now possible, at least on my Pixel. If it were possible to update this to allow access to only the apps necessary, I would gladly use it and share it around.

The Now Playing feature on the Google Pixel 4 is cool but I was so frustrated that Google only caters to YouTube. It doesn't allow you to open a song to Spotify. After a quick download this immediately started working. It added a Spotify button to open the songs in a Spotify playlist .
