It is no new fact that everyone loves music, and this need has eventually skyrocketed the demand for music streaming apps. Today, the global music streaming market size is more than $10 billion, which was $7.9 billion in 2020. Considering the growth of the music industry, many businesses, despite their size, have shown interest in trying their hand in the sector.   

If you’re planning to develop your own music streaming app and are wondering how you can ensure its success, this blog post is for you. In this article, we have shared five key features that your music app must have in order to elevate the user experience.   

#1 User Interface 

 Just like any other app, your music app should have an engaging, smooth, and visually appealing user interface. Plus, it should be backed by a pleasing user experience so that people spend more time on your app. For better results, companies should outsource nearshore software development teams and work with their engineers to create a well-designed UI and a seamless UX. Besides, these professionals also ensure that the flow of the app screens should be oriented with user context.  

 #2 Music Store  

 A competitive music app should have its own audio service and music store for users to allow downloading and playing music tracks. Provide your listeners with a curated list of artists and tracks across different genres to enhance their music listening experience. This will also allow them to recommend your app to their friends and families.  

 #3 Social Sharing Integration 

Most of the competitive music streaming apps today offer social sharing and syncing options to their users. For instance, people can share their favorite tracks right from your app to their Instagram feed. This feature is a great marketing gimmick since social media is all the rage these days. Through social sharing, your platform gets exposed to a wider audience, and your app eventually gets more listeners and subscribers.  

 #4 Online and Offline Access 

Oftentimes, poor connectivity interrupts a live-streaming song, which can be frustrating. Although network connectivity plays a major role, you can allow your users to use your app both online and offline. Or, provide them with the feature of premium membership where they can download their favorite tracks and listen to them offline, without the need for a network or a stable internet connection.  

 #5 Custom Player 

Customization is an attractive feature of a music streaming app. In order to deliver a user-friendly look, offer your users customization options, such as color, font, design, etc. This induces the user to go creative with their playlist and establish a personal connection by allowing them to design their own look and feel of the music player.  

 Taking a Quick Recap  

Other than the mentioned features, other considering features could be push notification messages and event calendars. In a nutshell, providing your listeners with advanced features could help you build your audience base. And that will automatically pump up your revenue generation via more and more users opting for your music app subscriptions.
