TikTok has partnered with Spotify and Amazon Music to allow users to easily store tracks from TikTok videos on their chosen streaming music app. Since Spotify’s TikTok-inspired app revamp earlier this year, TikTok has had a major effect on music charts and the discovery of new artists.
Labeled “Add to Music app,” the new functionality will appear as an “Add Song” button at the bottom of TikTok videos in the For You Feed, next to the titles of the tracks. This button allows users to store tracks directly in their streaming music app. Users have the option to choose their default music service upon first usage.

The “Liked Songs” playlist is where saved tracks go for Spotify users in the US and the UK. On the Settings tab, under “Music,” users may also change the default settings. Spotify intends to provide compatibility for more markets in the future, as per a TechCrunch report.
A similar TikTok feature will be available to Amazon Music customers in the US and the UK, where TikTok songs may be put into a playlist of their choosing or into a special “TikTok Songs” playlist. Notably, Spotify will serve both free and premium customers, whereas Amazon Music will only provide this option to Prime members and Amazon Music Unlimited subscribers.
TikTok Add to Music App: A Step Further
The user’s streaming music app and the TikTok app need to be upgraded to the most recent version for the functionality to work. The functionality will be available on iOS and Android as of right now, according to Spotify, and it will work with its current social connections on sites like BeReal, Instagram, Snapchat, and X (formerly Twitter).

Sten Garmark, Vice President and Global Head of Consumer Experience at Spotify reaffirmed the company’s commitment to offering people easy options to keep music across devices, like the TikTok Add to Music app. “It will find you,” he said, highlighting Spotify’s goal of uniting fans and artists.
Ole Obermann, TikTok’s global head of music business development, emphasized the platform’s position as a global hub for music discovery. He was quoted by Music Business Worldwide saying, “The Add to Music App takes this process a step further, creating a direct link between discovery on TikTok and consumption on a music streaming service.”
TikTok Gets Banned in Nepal
Amid these TikTok developments, Nepal has moved to ban the popular social media platform because of its disruptive effects on societal institutions, as reported by CNN. The decision is in line with other nations that have placed limitations on TikTok; India, for example, has outright banned the video-sharing app.
Rekha Sharma, Nepal’s Minister of Communication and Information Technology, emphasized that the harm to societal cohesion was what led to the temporary ban. The Telecommunications Authority head, Purushottam Khanal, has ordered internet service providers to block the app in reaction to the government’s decision.
