[Mobile] Voice Control

Think it would be a great help to introduce a voice control for the app version.


Doesn't really need to be anything too extravagant just commands like 'Skip Track' or 'Pause/Play' etc.

 

Would be really useful on car journey's for instance!

I would like to see search by voice similar to what you can do in YouTube

I suppose Cortana can take care of this?

I've got around it quite well now with Google Assistant on Android.

Voice control would be awesome

Seriously, why isn't this a thing already? Come on guys. It's essential whilst driving long distance on motorways.

I guess this should be done by the OS? E.g. especially now groove is not going to be useful on windows devices, it would be a good opportunity to have proper Cortana integration on Windows.

 I'd like to add giving the app permission to accept voice commands while the screen is off, like my google assistant does. I want to be able to say "Spotify, add to libary" "spotify, skip" "spotify, pause" "spotify, playlist 'Runner'" 

It would be so useful for both driving and exercising.

Great if able to use with Bluetooth headphones. Don't want to need to get the phone out.

I'd be happy with just the 'Like' command.

When I'm hearing a mix and I hear a great song, it would be great to just say 'Spotify, I like this one' or something, and keep doing what I'm doing.

This is not only a good idea,but a necessary one.

I ride a motorbike and mostly listen to music on my way to work but have no control over the app once I'm on the move.
