How Spotify works
Spotify operates through an internet connection, be it Wi-Fi or mobile network.
Anyone who wants to use it makes a simple registration, directly in the application or the official website.
There is also the possibility of entering the Facebook or Gmail account, simplifying the process.
The platform stands out for the intuitive interface and organization of playlists, albums and podcasts.
Those who like to discover new songs exploit recommendation systems, which point out tracks related to each user's habits.
Another feature that draws attention: creation and sharing of personalized playlists, enabling exchanges between friends and acquaintances.
Spotify's streaming system comprises different audio formats.
It is possible to find remastered music, original recordings and even acoustic versions.
In the podcast category, the catalog includes programs of various genres and durations, through humor, culture, politics and specialized themes.
- Free or paid version? Understand the difference
Free signature (free) does not require credit card or monthly amounts.
To use Spotify without paying, just enter the version that displays advertisements at defined intervals.
It's similar to what you see on video platforms: Before, during or after a few tracks, the user comes across ads.
Anyone who decides to sign a premium plan eliminates advertisements and still receives additional advantages, such as downloading music to listen to offline and choosing between different levels of audio quality.
In the free version, the listener does not have the same freedom to advance from range several times in a row on certain playlists, while in premium this occurs without restrictions.
Currently, four signature categories are available in Brazil:
- Individual Plan: R $ 21,90 per month (1 account).
- Duo Plan: R $ 27.90 per month (2 accounts).
- Family Plan: R $ 34.90 per month (up to 6 accounts).
- University Plan: R $ 11.90 per month (1 account).
Each modality presents specificities, such as number of accounts linked and the possibility of creating groups that share the same charge.
- Methods to have Spotify Premium without paying
Many are unaware that Spotify offers resources to purchase premium at no cost, provided that the user meets certain conditions or performs certain procedures. Then understand how this happens:
Free Spotify test
The platform releases up to three months of premium access to new registrations. This offer depends on the time and the current promotions.
During this period, there are no advertisements and the listener takes advantage of all functions, including offline reproduction.
When the test time ends, the signature automatically migrates to the chosen plan, but nothing prevents it from being canceled before renewal to avoid charging.
Livelo Point Rescue
Livelo is a loyalty program that collaborates with several partners. When shopping in these partner companies, the customer accumulates points.
Subsequently, these points can be exchanged for special products, services or coupons - including Spotify Premium. This is a little known method, but capable of guaranteeing 30 to 180 days of premium totally at no additional costs, depending on the amount of points accumulated.
There are three possible rescue ranges:
- 1,300 LIVELO POINTS = 30 days of individual premium
- 3,400 points Livelo = 90 days of individual premium
- 6,700 LIVELO POINTS = 180 days of individual premium
To do this, just go to the Livelo website or app, choose "use points", enter the "See More" section and look for "Spotify". Then just generate the voucher and activate the free premium period.
- How to download and install spotify
The installation process is straightforward. In Android smartphones or tablets, the download happens through the Google Play Store.
Already on iOS devices, by the app store. On the computer, the installation can be done directly on the Spotify website or at official operating system application stores (such as Microsoft Store for Windows).
Once installed, the program requests an account or login. Then the user starts listening to music online.
For those seeking to listen without spending internet data, only premium users have offline mode, which allows you to download entire tracks, albums or playlists.
Is it worth resorting to Spotify?
Spotify concentrates a large collection of artists, bands, conversation and even independent content.
In many countries, including Brazil, its name is synonymous with audio streaming. The free version meets those who want to enjoy a good repertoire without paying monthly fees, with the exception of advertisements.
Premium is valuable for those who prefer to avoid ads and navigate without strip leap limitations.
A positive point is compatibility with various platforms, including cell phones, tablets, notebooks and smart TVs.
This allows you to bring the favorite music or podcast anywhere. On the other hand, some devices do not yet have a specific application, which requires a little more improvisation in access via browser or similar solutions.
Despite some cons, such as the amount that weighs on the budget depending on the plan chosen, Spotify remains a global reference in terms of musical variety, podcasts and practicality.
Those seeking to listen without monthly fees find the free version. Anyone who wants free advertising and offline experience invests in Premium-with or without payment, according to the methods previously explained (free test and Livelo points).
In the end, each one chooses which level of access fits its own style. The important thing is to realize that Spotify is not limited to packages paid: there is ways to use without putting your hand in your pocket and without losing the main advantages.
It is worth checking the app, try the catalog and deciding which format works best in everyday life.
