My Question or Issue

 

I don't have the new Lossless option on any of my devices.  App has been updated to the latest on all, still not there. 

 

Your own AI help System said it should be on Family Premium yet I am not seeing it.

 

Yes I am looking in the right place, where you change the quality,  the highest I have is 'Very High' which is  not new.

Not in South Africa yet. Its almost December

It's almost December. Don't have it yet 

Unless you are willing to shell out for the new, more expensive Premium plan they introduced and get access to what is arguably a quite poor lossless implementation I would recommend going elsewhere for lossless streaming.

I reactivated my Tidal subscription for R109.99 p/m and use TuneMyMusic to synchronise my playlists between Spotify and Tidal. I've found I've enjoyed my time with the Tidal app and overall it offers better quality audio than Spotify Lossless.

Thank you very much for your input. I've been thinking about switching. But
I share a family plan. And one of the accounts is for my business, where I
use Sonos.
Also, found out loseless is not even announced for my country (Guatemala)

My Question or Issue

 

Hi everyone,
I’m trying to understand whether the Spotify Windows Desktop app currently supports lossless casting to external devices.

My specific case is the Bluesound Node N132.
Is it possible to cast from the Spotify desktop app to the Node N132 in lossless quality?
If yes, what protocol does it use (Spotify Connect?), and does it truly deliver lossless audio to this device?

Additionally, I’d like to know:
Which older Bluesound Node models (e.g., Node 2, Node 2i, Node N130) support lossless playback via Spotify Connect, if any.

Does this apply also when using the BluOS Controller app (on PC) as the control interface for playback — i.e. is the streaming quality still lossless when cast through BluOS?

 

I’ve found conflicting information online, so any official confirmation or user experience would be really appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance!

I have enrolled for the Premium Family Plan along with my family members since 2023 and right now they have changed the plans and made the Premium Family Plan as Legacy Premium Family Plan. They've also introduced a new Premium Platinum with Lossless Audio and i want to know whether that can be accessed for Premium Family Members too as I have been waiting for that for so long now !

Hi I am an user of the Legacy Family Premium Plan and I have received the Lossless Update but it tells me I need to upgrade my plan to use Lossless but I was using one of the highest plans in Spotify shouldn't I and my family have the rights to hear in Lossless

As a long-time Premium member, I'd like to know why I still don't have the benefit of lossless music streaming. I've stopped listening to music on this platform and now use another one, which is why I'm forced to leave the platform permanently if my case isn't addressed.

No answer and just shoving my question in the solved and "will come later" section is sad.

If I have lossless on android and not pc, its not a rollout or account issue and its not solved.

To suggest I simply need to wati and hope it will function some day is not ok.

Have you tried updating Spotify to latest version? 👇 Or in the alternative, re-installed app?

 

*I know that sounds overly simplistic, but that was the issue for me in the US when they rolled out Lossless for PC app.

Although of course one of the obvious reasons, I was sure to be using the latest version, always clicking the "update now" button. But I was just copy and pasting the version info and noticed that it was still using version 1.248.instead of 1.278. After checking the "update now" button again, I could confirm, that it was simply not updating anymore.  It was donwloading, claiming to update and restart, but stayed on the older version.

After deinstallation and a new installation, the update function now works correctly again.

Spotify für Windows (64 Bit)

I can finally use lossless with spotify connect.

It's Dec. 8, and I still didn't get support for lossless quality in my Android device.

Ok, Christmas time, NO Lossless time to enjoy holidays with higher Quality

Hi I still don't have the option and I live in the Philippines where it says in the Google search that it should be available here.

 

I use a OnePlus 13R phone and an iPhone 11 both doesn't show the lossless option.

Mid December and I still don't have access. I will be switching for good.

It's already December, and I still don't have it. 

The Amazon Echo Link was always positioned as the Echo line-up's way to bring Hi-fi Audio to home AV systems. After contacting Amazon, they say it's up to Spotify to rollout lossless support for the Echo Link, not them.

 

I know there has been a gradual rollout to support lossless on Amazon devices, however if there is a device that should get it earlier, it should be the Link.

 

Spotify team, please take care of your premium subscribers!

It's 2026 already and I still do not have that option. I've been checking weekly since it came out 4 months ago. I update my app every time an update comes out hoping to find it. I am located in the Philippines. Any update for it? Been a loyal user for so long now.
