A man wearing a ski mask is gaining followers on TikTok with their “hacks” of Spotify. The user The Masked Mortal makes videos talking about music, sharing his playlists and giving tips on how to get the most out of some of the most popular music listening platforms.
In one of the hacks, Masked Mortal teaches you how to listen to music with friends on Spotify. In the mobile app, you play a song and click on the icon in the bottom left corner that looks like a speaker with a screen behind it. Then you click on Sign In, and Spotify creates an invitation link that you can send via WhatsApp, Messenger or SMS. With this simple “hack”, you can listen to music simultaneously with up to five friends.

Another interesting and educational tip from Masked Mortal: by searching for Language Superstar on Spotify, you can find free audio lessons for several languages. The languages are divided into albums such as Learn German the Easy Way, Introduction to French Pronunciation and Business Chinese. But there is a catch: the lessons are in English (and they even have a course for learning Portuguese).
The TikToker also introduced a way to discover new music on Apple Music. Click on a song in your app library, then click on the button with three dots and choose the option Create Station. This will create a playlist with artists in the same style as the first song that you may not know yet.
In addition to Spotify hacks, Masked Mortal also shares his playlists, such as the one with songs for those who think you're falling in love “Oh no I hope I don't” and the playlist for who is not feeling very well, called “Straight Feels”.
Through which channels you reach those people, classic and out of the box. BGR
