I'm just shocked that developers team can't add AirPlay 2 in THREE and a half years

The only way I can get around the buffering and stuttering is via Chrome on iOS. It behaves like Airplay 2, pause and play actions are in sync with the UI and there's no stutter.

 

The macOS app buffers, so does the web app on macOS (including Chrome, strangely). The iOS native app buffers. Trying to open the web app in Safari on iOS forces the native app open.

 

Of course using Chrome on iOS doesn't allow background play, so iOS can't sleep. No good options that I can find.

I would really appreciate a simple update on this if you had one.

Airplay 2 has been out for years. Why does Spotify still not support it? You're a huge company, why can't you put some developers on it?

Today was finally the day when I solved my Airplay 2 issues - by moving to Apple Music. 

The interface is even worse than Spotify's, but at least I can now stream to my Homepods without constant buffering issues. Worth it!

I’ve done the same. Problem solved!

An update on this would be nice.

So 1 year passed and still no estimate of implementation. I‘m considering switching my whole family to Apple Music.

Pretty sad that Spotify hasn't implemented this yet. It would be a good first step in making the Homepod mini and other devices more useable.

When will Spotify support Airplay 2 on the Mac? I use Spotify exclusively and would like to select more than one of my speakers using Airplay 2. Currently I can only select one at a time.
