[All Platforms][Playlists] bring Canvas to other platforms (Desktop, Tablet, TV, consoles)

I, for one, actually like the Canvasing ideas on songs. To be honest, I wish there was more as I have my phone on a charging dock on my desk next to my monitor (audio bluetoothed to my stereo) and I can't help but think that the idea of the canvas should be expanded to tablets and the desktop app. I think its a nice surprise, even if its only a few seconds on a loop for the length of the song.  I'm sure over time you'll add more to iconic songs of the past as you also keep adding them to newly released tracks.

I see there are plenty of other users out there that don't particularly care for the option. That's fine; it's not for everybody. I still think it should be expanded upon. When I'm using airplay at home to listen to music, it always gets my attention when the canvases pop up, but this doesn't happen when I have my iPad on airplay, just iPhone. The canvas seems like a more lively visual compared to just a plain 'Now Playing' screen. Just something to consider.

It should be available on iPad too... the whole experience is corrupted when you want to share the video loops on Instagram and realize you can only do it on the iPhone. Please please! 😊

It's so plain on the tv, staring at the single colored background. The feature would give the room just a bit more life.

Yes, please lighten up my life with these canvas features on all devices!

Make it happen!

Share with your friends!

True! Can we start a reddit on this or something to gain traction? Worth it?

This would be great!

Would love to have this on the TV versions of the app. Having a static cover picture on a 65" gets old pretty quickly

Right? Burning images into the TV and sh*t. let's go!
