[Partnership] Add Sign-in with Google for Existing Spotify Users

[mmichonski]

Thanks, Spotify, for adding a Sign-in with Google button option. However, only new Spotify users creating a new account can currently use this feature. There is no current way to port over an existing Spotify account with all its great listening history and fine tuned song preferences into a new Spotify account. This leaves existing Spotify users with the only way to use this feature being to create a brand new Spotify account. Could you extend the Sign-in with Google feature to prior existing Spotify accounts, so that every Spotify user who wishes to can use it?

wow, took them only 2 years for Spotify to "consider" this idea! I guess it will take at least 4 years for them to implement it.

@MihailY thanks for the update, we are happy to see that y'all put attention to this. We hope to close this thread with a good ending =D

@donaldhino lets not be pessimistic, they are now trying, this is hope for a better future soon

Why hasn't this been implemented. Many websites support this like Twitter, Microsoft and games like Pokémon go, epic games etc. What's funny is that they support Apple sign in dispite there issues with Apple and their payment system in the app store. Very strange.

update august 30,2023

Apparently you can add any of the following services now when signed into your account page:

apple

facebook

google

It is pretty clear that they don't know how to do it. Someone please tell them that they can use chatgpt or copilot to write the code for them as they obviously do not know how.

Editing my comment as it is confirmed as stated below me. Yay!

Actually he's right. I was just able to add my google login, this is now fixed! You need to go to account, login methods and press add google. It works!

[cyrylthewolf]

HOLY SHT!! They FINALLY DID IT. It only took them 2.5 F*CKING YEARS.

Anyway... Confirmed. I just added my Google account to my Spotify account as an additional login method. It works.

Close this bug!

We're happy to announce that you can now add your Google login to an existing Spotify account. More info on this here.
