Spotify Xbox One app

Submitted by on ‎2013-11-16 12:54 PM
Status: Implemented

I'm aware that a large majority of Spotify users won't be gamers but with Microsoft's latest console, the Xbox One, do you think it'd be possible to get a Spotify app? Now that it's possible to multi-task and stream while you game the opportunity to gain new monthly subscribers is massive.

 

It's already possible as seen with Microsofts new service "Xbox Music" which features heavily in the new console. I know I'd definitely use the app if there was one. Anyone else?

I don't think this will happen, as much as I'd like to see a Spotify app for both Xbox One AND 360. With Microsoft launching Xbox Music, it'd be too close a competition for Microsoft.

Why does everyone think that MS would be allowed to deny spotify access... that's a straight up anti-trust situation there...

 

Also furthermore, this would be great to just have a windows 8 app seeing as they are the same for xbox one and PC/tablets.

Yes, yes, yes. I'm using an xbox 360, but either way I'd like an app. I'd probably even buy a new xbox one for this.

Key features for XB1 Spotify:

 

1.) voice control :

I'd love to be able to walk in to my room, say, 'Xbox on', then 'go to spotify', then 'select playlist 1'  and it start playingg music,

 

2.) Snap view:

When I'm playing forza, I want my 'Forza' playlist snapped to the side (or even running in the background) playing my music.

 

3.) A sweet 'now playing' interface. -

When I've got people round I chuck on spotify, it'd be really nice to see some effort put in to the now playing screen, animations maybe, or cd covers, maybe the artist BIO?

 

Thanks guys! - Love your work!

 

 

 

 

no controllers, no sign in.. Spotify on the XB1 has the opportunity to be the best Spotify experience there is out there! - Make it count.

It was the first app I did try to find... Sadly I did not find what I was looking for. 😞
Hope this app comes in the near future.

Just adding my voice to the din.  I waited years for an XBox 360 Spotify app but nothing happened, so I'm not holding my breath here.

 

I'd love spotify for the One, and also for Windows 8 / RT of course.  The wolrd could be a beautiful place, if spotify was everywhere I wanted it to be.

The console is built to not just be a gaming console but an entertainment device so it seems like a perfect match. So I would love to see this if it's possible

As a Spotify Premium subscriber, I am patiently waiting for news of an Xbox Live app for the Xbox 360 & One.  I use the still-perfectly-capable Xbox 360 as an entertainment PC.  So, it would great if Spotify could run on both platforms.
