[Mobile] Voice Control

Submitted by on ‎2016-01-14 01:26 PM
Status: Good idea, vote for it

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 love the fact that you now have a voice activated method of searching your online muisc library. It would be great

if you could expand that to include searching music that has been downloaded. 

 

Trying to search local playlists while driving is dangerous and inconvenient. Asking a digital assistant to play downloaded songs and playlists would be awesome. Thanks

Yeah, would be great to fast and easy find your song via voice command/recognition.

 

Like, when you're in the mood and quickly want to here "Adelante"! and just say "Adelante!".

 

Either just play the most likely finding, or just show the alternatives in search.

Also a optional voice activation hot key word like "Hey Spotify" so that we can have hands free control.

Noticed some iPhone Premium users have Voice Command in Spotify while I remain without it...why the random spacing of features between random Premium users? When can I tell the iPhone what to play?

 Is there any update on this? How can you have voice control but not include basic previous, play, and skip commands? Appreciate all you guys do, this app has opened up a whole new world for me. Mine is towards Android.

It's amazing that this feature has not been implemented yet by Spotify, so many users asking for that, and it's so OBVIOUS its utility.

I am using Spotify while i'm commuting on my bike, with headphones, hand on the fare of my bike, skip, like, pause... would make great difference, anch it's not so difficult to do....
