    I use triple tap with a shortcut to add the current playing song to my library, makes adding new songs while driving a breeze

      That’s super handy, I want that too! I tried adding that in the settings, but couldn’t really find a suitable option in the “Back Tap” menu. Does it have to do with the Assistive Touch? Also, can you tell if this will work with Spotify, or if it’s only exclusive to Apple Music? TIA!

        It’s not under the default settings, you need to setup a shortcut using the shortcuts app, I’ll show mine it’s very simple, once u make the shortcut then u can select it if u scroll down to the bottom of the list in the back tap menu, I don’t have Spotify so I can’t say anything specific but I’d assume that you can make shortcuts for it as well

              So I tried and made some research, and I wasn’t able to create a Shortcut for Spotify. However I was able to create the same kind of Shortcut for Apple Music like you did. Some source on the internet suggested that there used to be a Shortcut option for Spotify at some point (like in iOS 13 or something?) but that it doesn’t exists anymore. Couldn’t find info whether or not it will come back anytime soon. If someone has more up-to-date information, please let us know.

              Anyway, I decided I’ll be switching to Apple Music from Spotify, since I’m already in the Apple ecosystem and one of my family members is already using Apple Music.

              Thank you for letting me know about the Shortcut, it’s been enlightening to me. I’ve been looking into other Shortcuts now as well, and they too will make my life easier. :)

                I find Apple Music more convenient since I have an apple ecosystem as well, glad ur making the switch!
