[Desktop][Developer] MacOS Monterey Spatial Audio Support for Spotify

Briefly,

Implement Spatial Audio feature on macos platform like iOS.

 

Apple provides a simulated Spatial Audio feature in macOS Monterey for apps that add their plugin. Doing so enables Spotify for Mac listeners to take advantage of new Spatial Audio features on AirPod Pros and other supported headphones and requires little effort from development. You've closed like this idea before. However, we recommend that you read carefully, this is a different platform not iOS, this is MAC OS.

Hey! Looks like your idea is on the road again! We are going to change its status to 'Good Suggestion' now and we hope it continues to reach more users and grows fast.


Thanks again for your suggestion. We really appreciate it 🙂

Please, don't forget about this, I have considered already a couple of times moving to Apple music, and it's still on the table.

It seems like all mac users in existence that also have airpods with spatial audio need to pile up in this discussion in order to eventually get this feature rolling. It's been almost 2 years since the inception of this topic and it's still considered a "Good Suggestion"? It's a must have if you ask me.

The spatial audio feature of AirPods, to enhance the rhythm of beats and make vocals more immersive in music. It's disappointing that this feature is available on the Spotify iPhone app but not on the Spotify Mac app. I hope to see this feature implemented on the Spotify Mac app soon.

How is this taking so long? Rough going from IOS App with Spatial, to MacOS App and its not there, so you gotta use Safari web player...

This is listed as a good suggestion and has been around for 2 years... why is nothing happening?

It seems like Spotify App doesn't support spatial audio yet. Because when I connect to my AirPods Pro 2, it shows spatial audio not available in the control center.

So how many votes does it need to get done? It's been years, just do it, can't be that hard.
