Where's my Airplay icon?

[hinezee]

In short,

I've got 2 ipads, 2 iphones, I'm a premium spotify subscriber, I can use the native apple Remote app to stream music from either ios device to either my laptop or to my Denon 3312 Amplifier (which supports Airplay) via Airplay.

However, I have not once seen the Airplay icon from any ios device using the spotify app. I've tried turning all of the apple devices off but one to elimiante interference.

I've shut everything down multiple times and upgraded all software to the latest version.

What's really annoying is that it works perfecty via the native iphone Remote app.

Any suggestions would be very grateful.

Seriously, why can't I airplay on my Denon from my laptop?????? It works in iTunes, I don't get it...... where is the icon on the Spotify app for my laptop??

Hey 🙂 

There is no airplay function currently in the desktop versions of Spotify. There is a rather large ideas topic about adding this functionality over on the Ideas Exchange.

But why is that? iTunes's got it. I have a Denon amplifier. And a premium account, and yet can't benefit from it, it takes quite a bit of battery to use either the ipad or iphone to stream, I don't want to do that. I don't understand if you are charging 10$ a month per custommer, and yet can't have that laptop/desktop stream option. Why don't you build it?

I don't work for Spotify, so I can't answer that question for you.
