So here's my honest take on Spotify: Music and Podcasts. I've tested a bunch of music and podcast apps and this one's definitely one of the better ones. And the music selection is massive and the recommendations are usually pretty spot on. The podcast library is also super impressive. Only real downside is the ads in the free version, but you can always upgrade to Premium if that bothers you.

Description

Been using Spotify: Music and Podcasts for a couple months now. It’s basically an app where you can stream millions of songs, listen to podcasts, and even audiobooks – all for free. Pretty solid if you’re into that kinda stuff.

Here’s what you do: you can search for artists, albums, or playlists and just start listening. There’s also curated recommendations, which is pretty cool. And there’s a big library of podcasts – took me a while to figure that out but it’s useful.

Look, if you’re into music and podcasts, you’ll probably like this. It’s not perfect – the free version has some ads that can get annoying – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out.
