User login, GPS Location and some other new features
We decided to use Spotify Android SDK for user login instead of creating specific user accounts for SpotiTrace. Now the first thing that is shown in the SpotiTrace is a login activity where you can login using your Spotify username and password. Spotify Web API is used to get the username for the logged in user. The username and the song the user listens to right now is stored in the SpotiTrace Server database.
GPS location has also been added to the app in order to make it possible to find users nearby. Since the Spotify broadcast notifications don't include all the information we want to show about the songs other users play right now, Spotify Web API is used to get extra information.
