Spotify is working on mixing tools that would allow users to remix songs on the streaming service, according to screenshots captured by tech veteran and app researcher Chris Messina. The screenshots indicate that the mixing tools would be available under a new “Music Pro” premium subscription tier. While Spotify’s mixing tools can’t get rid of this issue altogether, they could help remedy it to a certain extent. It’s not surprising that Spotify is developing mixing tools, especially as sped-up songs and mashups are having a moment thanks to TikTok. According to TikTok’s 2023 year-end report, the most popular songs on the app were sped-up remixes of songs.

Even though X seems to be working on this NSFW Communities feature, that doesn’t mean it’ll come to fruition.

Introducing Cherry: Your AI Shopping Sidekick for Effortless Product Exploration through Screenshots and Images

Cherry App
A new app from a startup called Cherry is aiming to transform the online shopping experience with its AI assistant that allows users to discover products across the internet using just a screenshot or image. Cherry helps you find products that you’ve come across while scrolling through social media or have seen in real-life. “My motivation for creating Cherry stemmed from a personal frustration with the time-consuming process of finding and comparing products online,” Kim told TechCrunch. Plus, users can also share their search results with their friends or on social media. “While Google Lens offers general image-based search capabilities, Cherry is specifically tailored for the shopping experience,” Kim said.
