humit is the love child of Spotify and Reddit that let's you share the most powerful moments from your favorite songs to Subreddit-esque channels, which we refer to as 'Stations'

Very interesting app! Music is a social experience and I love that Humit helps me discover new music and shared interests with a wider community. Love the user experience and design... super seamless! Great work, Prithvi and team! All the best. :)

@carygottheblues Glad to hear that you have been digging the app!

High hopes but failed miserably with 5 min of use!!! Keeping it restricted to Spotify premium and not letting user know before connecting their sporty account and account creation is not a fair practice. Now I’ve account I can’t use or delete and You have access to my Spotify data for no reason.

I've discovered at least 10 good songs here over the last few weeks of beta testing. If you like music, just download this and use it at least once a day. Thank me later.
Prithvi Sankar
@akhilesh Let's make that 1,000? You have been such an amazing influence on our users, right from the DC++ days :P

Cool idea, but waiting for Apple Music integration

Very practical app that facilitates music discovery with the ability to listen to 30s snippets of songs posted by users(and extend + bookmark them if we like what we’re hearing). Great community, with good taste in music! Several user curated “stations” to check out already, with the ability to create and manage your own. Diverse user base with music from all over the world. I post there daily myself! Surprisingly addictive :)

Rahul Chhabra
This is amazing, love the app!

@rahulchhabra07 Happy to hear that you've been enjoying your experience with humit. Looking to launch some 🔥 features in the days to come :)

This is amazing. Craazy I was thinking about finding an app that does this a week ago and I stumble on this today. Will definitely be trying it out.
Rohit Ganapathy
@akangudaniel Awesome! Eager to know what you think :)
Nilay Pochhi
Awesome!
Prithvi Sankar
@nilay_pochhi Do take the app for a spin and let us know your thoughts!

Interesting concept for a social medium, I'd be curious to know how people use it and how much they actually interact with other people's hums. Now questions: why do you need a premium account on Spotify to use it? And will you work on a support for Deezer users?
Prithvi Sankar
@rubenwolff currently we support Spotify non-premium users on Android. Support for Apple Music and other services like Deezer would be rolled out soon! So stay tuned :)

Hello folks! I'm Prithvi, Co-founder of humit. We are stoked to release humit's iOS app to the PH community! humit is a social app for music lovers that lets you share powerful moments from your favorite songs to subreddit-esque channels called Stations 📻 humit is a fresh new way to bond and engage with like-minded music fans from around the globe 🌎 It makes music discovery serendipitous and sharing music far more addictive. Give it a shot and see for yourself! We launched our Android app a while ago on PH (that was #3 POTD) and have amassed over 3,000 users ever since... with over 15,000 hums shared 🎉 and over 400k streams We also have a bunch of interesting features in the pipeline 1) Externally shareable Stations and Profile pages 2) Personalised station/ friend recommendations 3) An enhanced hum creation experience 4) Improved support for passive listening Although you can proceed without an invite code, feel free to use mine (503801). At the moment you require a Spotify premium account to use humit, but we're working on support for non-premium and Apple Music users as well. Stay tuned for updates and please keep the feedback/questions rolling in 😁 PS: We hope you all are safe and sound in the midst of COVID 19. Stay safe and wear a mask!

@prithvi_sankar Hello..i want to bring investors on board for this company. Let's talk, if you're interested.
Mary Henderson
@prithvi_sankar @osas_calvin Thanks for stopping by! I have doublechecked and aside from changes in imports (pip no longer having a main function), I could get my code to work normally (on Linux Ubuntu though). I dont have time to investigate further, but make sure that youtube_dl actually downloaded the file to the root of the script. Maybe you also forgot to setup SAVE_FOLDER variable, which I corrected to be root folder by default. Check the updated version of the code and let me know how that works for

Good one! congratulation on the launch
Prithvi Sankar
@rashjbp Thank you for the wishes. Onwards and updwards 🚀

Hey Whonilay! Our Spotify based login works just like any other OAuth system. You see a list of scopes that you have to approve before logging in. I do get that maybe we could ask the user to connect his spotify account once registration is done. Lookout for that in a future update :) Also, Feel free to DM @sudomice on humit to delete your account.
Naman Malhotra
Always wanted to implement such an idea, but you did it, all the best on the journey ahead, amazing work. All those sleepless nights will be fruitful. ❤
Prithvi Sankar
@naman_malhotra03 Hey! Happy to know that you've been thinking about the same problem. Glad to bring humit to you! :)

Amazing product guys! also the website is a piece of art, amazing job 💯🎉
Samyak Sahu
The platform does what it promises. A great disco-esque interface and new ways of discovering personalities by the choice of music. Looks like a lot of work has been done to ease out UX in sharing hums. Would love the community to do its thing and create more stations!
Prithvi Sankar
@samyak_sahu Love the way you've described your experience! Virtual Disco, it is. Do tell your friends about humit, so they can join and moderate some kick-ass stations!
Vivek
This is a good idea, there are not much apps with such features. Thanks for sharing this
Prithvi Sankar
@vivekweb2013 IKR? We had been longing for an app like this for years, decided to build it ourselves since no one else did.
Saumil Gaonkar
Amazing product! Has made discovering and sharing music so much better.
Prithvi Sankar
@saumil_gaonkar You have been a great support. Do tell your friends about humit and help us spread the gospel far and wide!

The team behind Humit has asked me to postpone their launch multiple times because of the covid catastrophe engulfing India... with members of their team succumbing. And yet they're ready for their launch now. Props y'all — props!
Prithvi Sankar
@chrismessina Thank you so much for being accommodative and taking time out to do this, even after multiple to/fro. Totally psyched!
Rohit Ganapathy
@chrismessina btw Chris has been sharing some killer hums :p his handle on humit is : @chris
