Since iOS 12, I have started to use the Shortcuts app to download videos and music on iPhone. Recently, I created a shortcut, Utimate Media Downloader, to download videos and music from thousands of websites. 

Shazam is a popular service that can identify the names and lyrics of the music that is playing. It allows you to connect Spotify and Apple Music. Since Apple has acquired  Shazam, it is quite easy to add Shazam identified tracks to Apple Music playlist, so I will talk about Spotify more. 

• Available on Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS (iPadOS). 

• You don’t need to install additional apps since Shortcuts for iOS and macOS and Power Automate Desktop for Windows are built-in. 

• You see each action to make sure we don’t do anything evil.

• You can customize actions in the Spotify to MP3 shortcut or flow for your preference.
