The platform itself didnt make an official announcement.

Sharing music across platforms doesnt require any extra steps on behalf of the sender.

To begin, tap the three dots next to a songs title, then hover over Share.

But its unknown when thatll happen.

Leading the charge

This tech isnt anything new, as similar tools have existed for years now.

Songlink is another option, but again you have to make a full playlist.

Its a level of flexibility rarely seen anywhere else.

You dont have to create a playlist.

Youre free to share one song and just the one song.

On top of all this, Tidal is bucking industry trends bybecoming cheaper, too.

We would love to see Spotify, Apple Music, and the like follow in its footsteps.

The update should be rolling out to all users soon.
