However, first you should know that if you want one of their songs to play when you receive a call, you cannot set a spottily song as a ringtone. However, you can make any song start playing whenever you receive a call. This is what we are going to explain in this article.
Automation to open spottily when someone makes a call
Spottily has a very wide musical catalog, so putting any of its songs as a ringtone is something interesting. The main problem that we find is that spottily does not allow it directly and there are also no applications for smartphones that allow you to choose one of its songs as a ringtone.
However, you can resort to a different alternative to the usual one of downloading the song and then using it as a ringtone; and it is to make use of Macro Droid, an automation application that allows us to have a similar effect.
Macro Droid is a free application that allows you to carry out automatic executions on your mobile, being very simple to use and with great potential. In this way, using it we can make spottily open when someone calls us.
