For some reason Spotify has restricted access to certain features which cripples remote control apps.
Features such as Discover, Messages, Queue management and so on. It is difficult to understand how Spotify benefits by hobbling third-party developers who are trying to make Spotify even more useful.
The whole point of having a remote control app is that you do not have to get up from your chair, walk across the room to your PC, sit down and do the necessary. Then get up, go back to your chair and sit down again. Very frustrating… especially when you realise you have forgotten something and have to repeat it all over again.
Please do something about this. I use my remote control app, Remoteless, extensively when at home, and really miss having access to some of the features which are currently not available to remote control apps working with Spotify.

Is it possible to make an app on iphone to control the music that we are listening to from the computer ? As iTunes has already done with the app "remote", could spotify do the same ?

So I got this shiny new idea from sing Spotify on my LG Smart TV. Seeing that the Spotify app for LG Smart TVs are readily available, how about an implementation of the Spotify Connect feature to the smart TV platforms as well? This way, it will make it even simpler to control Spotify playing music on a TV using a phone, tablet or a desktop/laptop. Of course, I'm sure some things could discourage or demotivate the development of this feature, such as the amount of people who actually found out and use this feature on their TVs, but I think this feature would help anyone who uses the app on their TV anyway.
And, of course, I would want other brands of smart TVs to see this feature as well, so I wouldn't be suggesting this only for the LG Smart TVs out there.
Hopefully, I/we can see this feature soon!

Hey there.
Thanks for app I use every day with my Pioneer SMA 1 Spotify speaker. I think the remote app is ok, but Netflix made it better for my Smart TV.
This is Netflix remote app, it's additional to Netflix. You can keep it open all the time on your phone, even if display off. After opening it you see again this view without need to set your password to phone!!! Very useful, it's like how remote should work on smartphone!!!
Simple stuff like tracklist from release with button, star button, play, pause, big cover image and Now playing from My speaker etc. Would be good to have thanks.
Please make the same to Spotify!
Thanks in advance.

Hi, Firstly, I’m really enjoying the Spotify experience. It marries making music accessible with a slick, intuitive software delivery vehicle (mobile app and desktop). I have a suggestion to enhance the experience which I don't think has been mentioned. If it has, please let me know. Imagine the scenario: · I’m at home and I have my mobile device plugged into the speaker system as I was listening to it when I came in · I need to use the phone (emails, etc) so I hook up the PC in to the speaker system and use Spotify on that · As I’m sitting elsewhere on the phone I want to be able to control the application on the PC. So basically, from my mobile device, I want to be able to control the ‘application in-use’. It already knows that I’m logged in elsewhere (as it won’t let me stream on two devices – and that’s absolutely fair of course, to stop multiple account abuse.) I think it would be really cool if I was able to · Skip a song, · Choose a new song · Choose a new playlist, · Change the volume · Basically have full control over the application that is currently playing, all from my mobile device, while playing on the fixed device (e.g. PC). I think this would really boost the user experience and would be applicable to a lot of your users who multi-device around the home. It would also help drive competitive advantage, as I don’t think your competitors have done this in this capacity just yet. It would be great if you could let me know what you think. Thanks Mjrodgers1
