Have you ever tried to share a song to a friend via iMessage, only for them to complain that your link is to a different streaming service than theirs? Or has a friend sent you a link to a song on YouTube but you really want to listen on Spotify? Thats why I created SongLinkr. A simple utility that takes links to songs, and gives you the freedom to choose which platform you use. Simply copy a link to a song and SongLinkr does the rest for you. Open the app and see the link automatically pasted to the search bar, click search and view a list of matched platforms. And if you have Auto-Open Default Platform enabled, SongLinkr can intelligently recognise when a link is from your preferred music service and auto open that service if its not. SongLinkr utilises the Song.Link API to power its search results. That means that you can get results for a wide, and growing, range of streaming services and music platforms from across the globe. Platforms include: Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, Soundcloud, Google, Amazon, Deezer and many more.
