What is harmonIQ:
harmonIQ is an innovative web application designed to provide music enthusiasts with entertainment. Users can log in with their Spotify account to access personalized quizzes based on their listening history, tracks, and library. Additionally, users can view how their quiz scores rank compared to others on a global leaderboard. On top of this, harmonIQ users can generate playlists via a communal voting system, allowing them to share their music passion with friends and family. With features like displaying user statistics, collaborative playlist creation, and generating quizzes personalized to the user, harmonIQ caters to anyone passionate about music, offering a unique platform to enjoy and celebrate their love for music.
Why use harmonIQ:
Websites such as Whisperify and StatsForSpotify utilize the Spotify web API to generate quizzes and display user listening history, but neither of these sites has the ability to add songs to shared playlists. Spotify does offer a feature to create shared playlists, but it does not allow users to vote on the songs they want to add to the playlists. By combining these features, harmonIQ adds extra functionality compared to other websites and combines their functionality into a singular web application.
Who is harmonIQ for:
The target audience for our web app is anyone passionate about music. harmonIQ is intended to allow people who love music to enjoy and share their passion with each other, as well as engage in quizzes uniquely tied to their own music taste.
