Point the camera and discover new music
Process of locating playlist using mobile camera
The Playlist for Spotify app does exactly what it comes up with with its name: search playlists for the music streaming app. Of course, it does this in a very curious way since it doesn’t crawl your library and doesn’t use a regular search engine. For homework uses Artificial Intelligence and a photo taken at the time.
The idea is to find music related to an image without having to do anything other than take the photo. Playlist for Spotify itself is such a simple app that it lacks configuration: a blank cover, a camera icon on the bottom right, and once the photo is taken, the application will load the associated playlists you can listen to them on Spotify by clicking on them. Also, save the captured image to the phone’s gallery.
One of the downsides of Playlist for Spotify, and surely the main one, is that the photo must be taken instantly, it does not allow uploading an image from the gallery. Once the capture is done, the app will analyze the image using AI (you need the mobile to have an internet connection) and, depending on what is in the snapshot, it will find playlists on Spotify that reflect what the photo inspires.
