One can like or dislike the song they are listening to and share any specific song on their Facebook timeline. The app also features regular music player features like volume controls, jumping to the next track or going back to the previous track and shuffling their current playlist.   The app homepage currently features a carousel of new music releases, along with featured albums and top played albums. Listeners can also invite their friends and view the music their friends are listening or else browse through listeners who are presently online on the app along with the music they are currently listening to.

However, we think that this app could most likely be useful only to listeners on desktops and not over mobile. Also, while we believe that Facebook drives significant usage to online music streaming sites like Saavn*, Dhingana and Gaana*, it is yet to be seen if a users will actually adopt to Facebook-based music streaming apps.
