This is a super slick new way to easily control Spotify on desktop. It handles music videos, podcasts, and other video content — and fluidly transitions between several different layouts.
Watch this space as Spotify edges into Youtube territory with an increased focused on music videos as a Premium perk!

@chrismessina nice feature but in terms of usability/purpose I'm a bit confused... Spotify has an amazing feature which is the synchronization of web and mobile so if I want to change track I often use the mobile just to avoid leaving the screen I'm working at and get distracted, but mainly what I use even more is my headphones buttons to change track or pause.
This could be a better feature if the mini player was more like a mini search bar that I would type a song or a podcast and show based on my preferences (favorites or playlists) a few set of options - like no more than 3.
@chrismessina Loved it. I want to try this right away! Will it be available for all premium users?
Oh wow reminds me of using Winamp back in the day 😄 It took me a while to understand that I could resize the window "normally" instead of having some sort of toggle to cycle between the different sizes though!
Absolutely loving the concept of this Spotify Miniplayer! It seems like a perfect solution for seamlessly enjoying music, podcasts, and videos while working or browsing. The idea of a balanced experience for both video and music content is brilliant. Can't wait to try it out!
How does the Miniplayer integrate with other desktop applications? Can I easily switch between Spotify and, say, my browser or document editor without any interruptions?
Thought I was insane looking for this exact feature a few weeks back, this is a relief 😂
Let me try this right away! @chrismessina 🔥
Btw, I also launched today - Premium Solopreneur Bundle. It's a curated bundle of my own resources to run a solo business smartly.
Templates, Template Generation Prompts for 14+ niche, E-Book and much more.
Try it out!
Wait, that's the actual Spotify team launching? I thought it's some plug-in by some indie dev lol!
Anyway, thanks Spotify for this, because your homepage on the app is a total mess... https://twitter.com/daveyheuser/...
Certainly! It would be beneficial for these large platforms to offer more customizable ways of accessing their services. A one-size-fits-all approach can be limiting.
