    General There should be way to set Spotify as default music player

    The music controls in control center always defaults back to Apple Music, even though I've never opened the app. Just like setting a browser as the default one in MacOS, there should be a setting for default music player in iOS.

    How to control Spotify/Pandora music from Apple Watch?

    I went for a jog yesterday and decided to listen to Spotify. I also used a Bluetooth headset, so it was the first time I've run with three devices (iPhone, Apple Watch, and earbuds) completely wirelessly. I noticed that the Music app on the Apple Watch could only control iTunes music, not the...

    Why I cancelled my Apple Music Subscription

    The reason I switched over from Spotify to Apple Music is because I bought an Apple Watch Series 2 and Apple only let you sync their service to the watch. No Spotify, Deezer, Amazon Music, Tidal or anything else including Podcasts…. Apple Music only! But seeing as the music library was about the...

    External speaker not recognizing Spotify audio signal?

    Hey everyone, I'm having a really weird problem lately that I can't seem to figure out. My external speaker (it's this one) has a built-in power saving function to shut down after 10 minutes if no audio is being played. I listen to music constantly while I work, and I have this speaker hooked...

    Hide idiotic Spotify icon from touch bar

    This is so infuriating, and I'm hoping theres a way (via plist files or whatever) to fix it... Spotify force-adds an icon to the 'collapsed' view of the clamshell view of the touch bar (the one you can customize). This wouldn't be bad if their custom icon SHOWED UP in the 'customize' screen...

    AirPods on Mac with Spotify

    Does this happen to you with your AirPods? When using Spotify and I remove an earbud the music does not pause. When I remove the other one, again, it does not pause. It actually funnels the sound to the Mac speakers. I am used to taking out my EarPods when someone comes to my desk, but now, the...

    I'm sure this has been mentioned before, but, even though I've turned off background refresh for Spotify, and have deleted and reinstalled the app several times, I'm still finding it draining my battery. Anyone have a solution, please?

    iOS 10.1 on 6S Plus extreme lag

    Hi Guys, since upgrading to 10.1 on my iPhone 6S Plus it's taking around 10-15 seconds to turn my bluetooth on. Also, first thing in the morning when opening Spotify, there is a similar lag before the app opens. I am a bit OCD and like to hard close all my apps when I am not using them but I...

    Spotify & Apple Watch sync

    Prior to the latest Watch OS update, I would have the workout app running on my watch and be able to skip between songs playing from Spotify Playlist during my workouts. That feature seems to be non longer available. Did Apple remove this feature? For example: I'd launch Spotify at the gym and...

    I don't know if any of you have heard of TSclientX but it is an alternative to Microsoft's RDC included with the Office suites. TSclientX has not been updated in almost 10 years. The developer sent me an email the other day, so today I downloaded it on my G5 Quad and gave it a shot connecting...

    Spotify also works on 10.4!

    Hi folks, I don't know if this has been posted / found out before, so I feel sorry if that's true. Today, I was browsing the PPC archive on my PowerMac G4 running Tiger. I found Spotify and it looked cool to be able to stream music on a 15 year old computer. Unfortunately, according to PPC...

    Apple Music vs. Spotify

    Ok, I'm sure this has been probably been answered before, but can you create custom playlists on Apple Music without downloading the song to your phone? I currently use spotify but have been considering switching. Anyone else made the switch? Did you make the right choice?

    Am i the only one [having trouble with artist links in Apple Music] ?

    So far i'm really enjoying Apple Music over Spotify because of the weird taste in music that i've developed over the years. The thing that bothers me the most is that i'm unable to navigate to an artist instantaneously to check out other music that they have. I'm experiencing this in both iTunes...
