How to scan the Spotify codes?

“Spotify, the biggest music streaming service globally, now uses artificial intelligence (AI) extensively. It has many cool features, like auto-made transcripts for podcasts. This popularity is because of its great features. If someone is enjoying their favorite song with top-notch wireless earbuds, they can share their joy with you using a code. Here’s how you can use your phone to scan a Spotify code and join in the fun.”

What are Spotify Codes?

Spotify Codes are a cool feature on Spotify that lets you make a QR code to share songs, playlists, albums, or even an artist’s entire collection. You can create these codes on your computer or phone, whether you’re using an Android device or iPhone.

You can share these Spotify QR codes with your friends directly or post them on social media as a PNG image. You don’t need to have Spotify Premium to make or use them, and you can create as many codes as you like if you’re a Spotify user.

You can’t share your favorite songs using a regular code scanner or barcode reader. Spotify’s own Spotify URI codes are what work here.

Most pictures and album covers on Spotify already have a scannable code ready for sharing. The person you send it to just needs to have the Spotify app on their phone to listen.

How to Make Spotify Scan Codes?

Here’s how you can create a Spotify scan code for a playlist or audio content to share with others:

1. Open the Spotify app on your device.

2. Find and choose the content you want to share.

3. Tap the options menu button (it looks like three dots) next to the song title, or at the top-right corner of the album or playlist page.

4. From the menu that appears, select the “Show Spotify Code” option. The app will then generate a scannable code for the content you’ve selected.

You can also make a Spotify code by following these steps:

1. Find the content you want to share.

2. Tap the three-dot icon.

3. Go to Share > Code > Save/share code.

How to find Spotify Code on Desktop

Use these procedures to locate and copy a URI code from the Spotify desktop app:

Open the desktop version of Spotify.

2. Access the material for which you need the URI code. It might be a profile, podcast, album, playlist, or song.

3. Use the three-dot menu icon or do a right-click on the content.

4. Click and drag the mouse down to the Share menu.

5. Hold down the CTRL (or option, if you’re on a Mac) key on your keyboard while you’re hovering over Share. The default “Copy Song Link” option will now read “Copy Spotify URI.”

6. Try restarting Spotify if it doesn’t work straight away.

7. Press and hold the key to choose “Copy Spotify URI.”
