Music Streaming App Development like Spotify

Our well-defined processes and implementation of the above tech stack helped us create the online music streaming platform - Sounds Like, well within the stipulated timeline.

We submitted this iOS app in the Apple Store for users to download and stream music.

Our contributions included:

A Stellar Admin Panel

We added a powerful admin panel that helps the client easily manage:

• Music Creators/Artists
• Listeners
• Playlists
• Settings
• Payments/Subscriptions
• Music Uploads

The admin panel has a clean design layout that makes in-app navigation a breeze.

Quick Registration

We kept the registration process simple for musicians and listeners by:

• Allowing login via emails instead of usernames
• Facilitating password resetting

After all, the sign-up process, when done right, can trigger massive user retention.

Easy Uploads

New and emerging musicians can easily upload their songs in the app and stream them just as they would with songs from their online catalogs.

Custom Music Player

We custom-built the music player screen that displays the song cover at the top and describes the song at the bottom. This offers a personalized user experience.

Curated Playlists

Users can curate and build their playlists (based on genres like Jazz, Rock, Hip-hop, etc.) to satisfy different moods in a day - that is, times when they work out, cook, party, travel, etc.

Advanced Search

The search feature lets users explore new genres of music, find rising talents, connect with music creators, and discover new tracks on-the-go. We added this to put the users in full control of their music.

Valued Feedback

We incorporated a TextView in the app to help users share their valued feedback about specific songs, albums, or artists.

Clean and Modern UI/UX

We wanted to keep the app interface clean and clutter-free. So, our designers used a soft black background with clear white fonts. We used minimal icons. We also added a grid-like layout that offers a modern and organized look to the UI.

Flexible Cloud Storage

We used AWS S3 as the storage solution because it helps:

• Process and stream massive audio files
• Create space for growing music collection
• Balance loads caused by high-quality music uploads

Smart Monetization Strategies

We monetized the app using a subscription-based model wherein every new artist who wishes to upload their music in the app must pay a certain fee to the client for each upload.

We added this model to help the client earn good revenues from musicians willing to put out great content for their fans worldwide.

End-to-end Solutions

• We offered end-to-end solutions for this project, starting from analysis, design, development, testing, integration, hosting, and releasing it to the app store.
• Music makers can use this app to market their music (by paying a fee) and grow their fanbase. Listeners can download this app to stream hi-fidelity music for free.

Full-scale Product Development

By including core features, Capital Numbers turned a simple app idea into a full-scale product, Sounds Like, that looks distinct and has the potential to drive significant in-app revenues.

We’re proud of our dev team that created this robust app from the ground up to help the client gain an edge in the music streaming space.
