Connecting Spotify
When users create songs they have the ability to search Spotify rather than enter details manually. In doing so the song is linked to Spotify, which means when you view the song you can actually play the song in karaoke mode and sing along with the lyrics.
This guide will help you connect your Spotify premium account and have you singing your heart out in no time.
Spotify Premium
Please note an additional Spotify Premium account is required to use this feature.
1. Browse to Profile
To begin with open the side menu within the Fluentspeak app and click on the 'My Profile' button to navigate to your profile page.
2. Click on the connect Spotify button
On the right hand side of your profile screen you should see the connections panel. By default it will have a status of 'Not Connected'. Click on the 'Connect' button to connect it now.
3. Sign in to Spotify
You should be directed to a page where you can login to Spotify. Sign in using your preferred Spotify sign in method.
Spotify Credentials
Fluentspeak is not able to view your Spotify credentials. You might notice the URL you are seeing starts with https://accounts.spotify.com. That means all your data is being handled by Spotify, not Fluentspeak.
4. Agree to connect Spotify
The next page you see will ask you to agree to let Fluentspeak take certain actions with your Spotify account. Fluentspeak only ever needs two sets of permissions.
'View your Spotify account data' - this lets us know who we are dealing with. We never store or use any of this information outside of making sure you are who you say you are.
'Take actions in Spotify on your behalf' - this lets us use your account to play songs back to you in the browser.
Spotify Permissions
The only actions Fluentspeak performs on your behalf are a) confirming your identity and b) playing songs. No other actions will ever be performed. If you feel safe continuing to connect your account, click on the 'Agree' button. If you still aren't sure or you want to connect at a later time, hit the 'Cancel' button.
5. Return to Fluentspeak
After clicking either 'Agree' or 'Cancel' you will automatically be returned to your Fluentspeak profile page. If you clicked on Agree your Spotify connection will automatically update to show a status of connected.
If you want to disconnect your Spotify account at any stage simply hit the disconnect button. Disconnecting is instantaneous and doesn't require any action on your behalf. You can reconnect as many times as you like, whenever you like.
