2 Possibilities to bring serendipity into music apps
TL;DR
Discover:
Tag any song
Go to library and filter by tag
Discover the music you listened to around the globe
Actions speak louder than words—so click the button above to see two features I believe could transform user engagement through serendipity:
Smart Tagging System
Automatic tags generated by the system (based on mood, genre, activity)
Manual tags created by users for personal meaning
Location-Based Music Memory
Optional location data capture that maps your listening history
A visual journey showing what you played across different places over the years
I at least have wanted this feature for a long time cause I’ve caught myself referring to music repeatedly by mentioning:
“That vacation when we were roadtripping in Croatia,”
“The time we had that barbecue at Steve’s,”
“When I was in high school,”
“My time with my ex-girlfriend Lisa,”
“That summer in France,”
…
These features would let me rediscover my soundtrack to life. Whether through tags or location pins—added automatically or manually—I’d build a rich tapestry of musical memories over time.
I’m drawn to nostalgic features across all my apps: photo memories, monthly spending summaries, friendship engagement recaps, in short: throwbacks. Why not in music?
What do you think? I’d love your feedback!
