Social App TIYA Integrates Spotify, Enabling In-App Music and Podcast Sharing With Friends
May 31 2022 - 4:02AM
TIYA, a real-time social networking platform and a subsidiary of
LIZHI INC. (NASDAQ: LIZI), a U.S.-listed company, has launched a
new and integrated Spotify function.
The Spotify function, which is available through
the latest app update, enables TIYA users to listen to music or
podcasts together by sharing Spotify features between mobile
devices using the TIYA App. This further enriches TIYA users’
real-time online interactions and allows them to be even more
connected with friends anytime, anywhere.
TIYA is home to diverse groups with wide-ranging
interests where group members can chat via text or audio; play
games together; develop shared interests through relevant groups or
in real-time interactive group spaces; watch YouTube videos; and
listen to music and podcasts.
“Enjoying music together has emerged as one of
the most popular interactive features among TIYA users in the U.S.,
such as through using the in-app YouTube playback feature to listen
to music with friends in TIYA’s real-time interactive group spaces.
With the rollout of the new Spotify function in TIYA, which enables
access to Spotify’s expansive selection of content directly from
the streaming service, our users now have another tool to socialize
and share their lifestyles and interests,” shared by James Lin,
TIYA’s CEO.
Meanwhile, the TIYA App also offers Spotify’s
global users a new platform to listen to music and podcasts as well
as interact with their friends at the same time.
Since its launch, TIYA has accumulated nearly 20
million downloads as a social networking and community-oriented app
that aims to meet the young generation’s needs to stay connected
and for entertainment on a user-friendly platform.
Gaming-related groups used to be among the most
active groups on TIYA, but as more interactive features developed
over the past year, TIYA has become a more multifaceted platform
where users can find new friends of similar interests or create
their own groups. TIYA now aims to meet users’ social needs in
diverse usage scenarios by continuously innovating easy-to-use
online social networking tools and creating a real-time interactive
social space.
“TIYA is an alternative to typing-based social
networking platforms, allowing users to more quickly and easily
enter an online room and chat in real time,” Lin said. “With TIYA’s
more casual vibe, users also feel more at ease and comfortable,
which is why many of our users log into TIYA and create rooms to
chat with their close friends and listen to music together as an
everyday routine.”
