How to Use Siri Shortcut to Play Spotify Music For instance, you can say something like, “Hey Siri, play my workout playlist on Spotify.” “Hey Siri, play Justin Bieber songs on Spotify.”ĭo note that you can also use Siri to play podcasts on Spotify, ask what’s currently playing, and even control media settings i.e increase/decrease volume, skip track, and play/pause music. Playing Spotify Music Using SiriĪs I said above, you must add “On/from Spotify” to the end of each command to play Spotify music using Siri. To check it out, open Settings app > music app > Use with Ask Siri. Note: You can also use Siri with other music apps like Pandora provided they have added the support for Apple’s virtual assistant. As for the process, it’s as straightforward as it can ever get thanks to a simple toggle that can be toggled on/off from the Settings app. The integration with third-party music apps not only enhances user-experience but also makes the personal assistant more functional. Certainly not from the high podium that Apple often speaks! But was it a good strategy from the perspective of user-experience (forget about the competition)? No, I don’t think so.
From a business perspective, it was a smart ploy. Without getting into the debate about whether or not the tech giant did it because of the heat that the massive allegations created, I would say that the company should have allowed the virtual assistant to work with third-party music apps much earlier.īy keeping Siri away from the reach of third-party music apps, Apple kind of prevented the development of the virtual assistant and also forced iOS users to opt for Apple Music if they wanted to play music using voice commands. Streaming Spotify music with Siri on iOS has become pretty straightforward as Apple has eventually allowed third-party music apps to integrate with the virtual assistant. When you are dealing with a new feature like this one, it’s always better to clear out all the doubts first up.
