[Desktop] Add support for Apple Silicon (ARM64 on Mac)

Submitted by on ‎2020-11-11 02:28 PM
Status: Implemented

Feature request:

Add support for Apple Silicon in a future Spotify release on Mac OS.

 

Apple have recently released a new generation of Macs based on their own Apple Silicon. I hope that Spotify will prioritize native support for this new CPU architecture.  If so the best music platform on the Mac, will continue running great natively on the new generation Mac hardware.

Hey everyone,

 

Thank you all for bringing your feedback to the Community Idea Exchange and participating in this Beta test!

 

Your input has been invaluable and helped us tweak the app to make full use of the new CPU architecture.

 

We're happy to announce that the app is now out of Beta and can be downloaded from our website. You should automatically get the correct version for your Mac's CPU and all updates will be automatic as well, just the way it was in the past.

 

This idea is now officially implemented! Thanks once more for all your votes and posts.

 

Happy listening! 🎶

More than two months later and +600 votes this is still a "New Idea". Spotify really don't care about their users in the Apple ecosystem (or worse - they actively neglect them to help them in their lawsuits).
