These days, you’re likely always with a smart device—whether using your smartwatch on the go or enjoying your smart speaker at home. Now, more and more of these items include integrations with Spotify, so not only are you always with your device, but you also always have access to all of your favorite audio content.
It’s all part of our ubiquity strategy—the idea that you should be able to tune in to Spotify wherever, whenever, using whatever.
The end state here is to ensure that Spotify aligns more deeply with the multiple devices in your life so that you won’t need to find the songs or podcasts to suit the moment—they will find you.

The audio often stutters. I'm using Spotify Premium. The Mac and Apple TV are connected to the same home WiFi network. The WiFi network is not busy and my broadband is quite fast (50Mbs download speed). I don't think it is a network issue because things work fine if I use Spotify on my iPhone. With the addition of being available on the Apple TV now, the music streaming service is now available on the iPhone, iPod Touch, Apple Watch, Mac and now the Apple TV. Spotify is a free app in the tvOS App Store and costs $4.99 a month for the Spotify Premium for Students plan (includes Hulu and Showtime too), $9.99 a month for your average. Part Two: Stream Music from Windows PC to Apple TV 4. One of the nice features of the Apple TV is the functionality to access media content on your Windows or Mac including music, video and photographs. Both the device and Apple TV must be configured to use the same iTunes account, so you need to import your music from your computer into iTunes.
So in the spirit of ubiquity, here are six new ways to stream Spotify from one (or more) of your smart devices.
“Hey Siri, Play Spotify”
Spotify is now integrated into Siri on Apple iOS devices. This eagerly awaited feature will let you control Spotify and play music, podcasts, and playlists using the power of your voice. Now you can listen to Disney Hits or an exclusive podcast like Set It Straight with Midlandat work, home, on the commute, while exercising, or doing chores, all by saying the familiar “Hey Siri, play. . . ” to hear the audio you want. Just make sure to update your iPhone to iOS 13 – from there, remember to end each phrase with “on Spotify.” The Siri integration is also available on our new and improved app for iPad.
Spotify, Now on Apple TV
With our new Spotify app for Apple TV, you can now access Spotify’s 50 million tracks directly from your TV, making Spotify the natural audio destination across your many devices. This long-requested feature follows our other apps on TV platforms including Android TV, Samsung Tizen, Amazon Fire TV and Roku. We’re excited to bring this app to Apple TV and will continue to innovate and enhance the app—there’s plenty more in the works.
