Spotify Xbox One app

Submitted by on ‎2013-11-16 12:54 PM
Status: Implemented

I'm aware that a large majority of Spotify users won't be gamers but with Microsoft's latest console, the Xbox One, do you think it'd be possible to get a Spotify app? Now that it's possible to multi-task and stream while you game the opportunity to gain new monthly subscribers is massive.

 

It's already possible as seen with Microsofts new service "Xbox Music" which features heavily in the new console. I know I'd definitely use the app if there was one. Anyone else?

Yeah... can't believe this DOESNT exist. If Plex can get on there why can't you? You can use spoticast or plex to play spotify but the lack of a native app is a bit of a joke and reflects poorly on Spotify and Microsoft. An xbox which is already connected to most media systems is a really easy way to play music... or at least would be.

I would absolutely love to see this happen, I love spotify and I love Xbox one. Spotify has everything I want and I would love to have that while i game!

I hate using Pandora because it just genuinely sucks. And soundcloud is alright. Spotify on the other hand is the prime way to listen to music. Xbox is the prime way to game. So it only makes sense to put them together.

This is like using Microsoft Windows without a web browser. It makes absolutely NO sense as to why this hasn't been implemented yet.

 

I use my XBox One for entertainment purposes as well as gaming. Right now I have to use the YouTube app just to listen to and stream music in my living room (where my XBox is), which really sucks. 

 

Spotify on XBox One should have been developed long ago. Its now August 2017. WTH?!?!

It looks very much like the exclusivity deal with Playstation has expired, and Spotify is coming to xbox one as a UWP App.
