[iOS] Implement Native HomePod Support

[robotoman22]

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!

Pressure should be the other way around!
Spotify does not care of some few hundreds of users moving to Apple Music.
Pressing Apple on the other hand may become more effective. as they can do
a deal with Spotify to implement native support for Hompod . Apple might
fear that around half of their Homepod sales will go down the drain.
most users purchasing a Homepod are not aware of that bug. doing PR by
making sure Apple and Apple users are aware of the lack of this feature
will force Apple to act vs Spotify.
I personally checked with Apple support prior to purchasing the Homepod
and they specifically answered it is supported with Spotify. surely they
misled me or were not aware that lack of native support is the feature that
is needed and not supporting this might decrease the Homepod sales.
