[iOS] Implement Native HomePod Support

Details

Just this week at WWDC (June 22, 2020), Apple announced support for third party music services on the HomePod.  I'm requesting that Spotify implement native support for the HomePod such that one or even multiple HomePods will appear in the "Connect to a device" menu on any Apple device WITHOUT having to connect through Airplay.  This will also allow users to ask Siri to play songs from Spotify on their HomePod(s). 

 

Apple is opening up the HomePod, and I know there are many other HomePod users that would love to have native Spotify support on their speaker.

Please upvote this idea to garner attention for it.  Thank you Spotify and the Spotify community.  Let's get this implemented so it's ready for general iOS 14 release this September!

Hey Spotify, get HomePod support (NATIVE) going soon or I’m cancelling our family plan and going elsewhere.

Got my first HomePod today and will definitely add a few more to my home. It was a bit disappointing to find out that Spotify doesn’t have native support for HomePod and I hope to get some updates here soon. I want to keep Spotify as my music player, but without HomePod integration I think I will switch too Apple Music unfortunately.
