My Question or Issue

I can play iTunes and youtube, etc., to airplay speakers/HomePod fine all day long. However, Spotify regularly disconnects after a song or two. I have had this since before iOS 13 and while using the latest (13.2.2). Lately, it’s been impossible for me to use Spotify on airplay. Not only have I deleted and resintalled the APP multiple times, I’ve reinstalled my entire OS on the devices. I’ve even purchased a new phone and I still have the problem.

Hi Spotify, 2024.. a new year and it has been 3.5 years since Airplay 2 implementation was promised. What is your status on implementing Airplay 2, and isn't it better to say no instead of letting your users keep hanging like this?

Big deal that I can't use Spotify with my Homepod, which is the primary way I listen to music at home.

Hi All,

I am hoping this Idea will reach enough votes so that Spotify can fix the issue. I am unable to AirPlay any Spotify music to my Apple HomePod, both devices are running iOS 15.1. I have tried AirPlay to other devices within Spotify and it doesn’t work. I have tried on our 4K Apple TV also doesn’t work. The only semi fix is to mirror my entire screen onto my Apple TV and then the audio will playback, but not using the “Other Devices - AirPlay feature”

Thanks in advance and hope you’re help can get this resolved.
