Spotify Now Available on Quest, Allowing Background Music Playback

Spotify finally whipped up its own thing for Quest users. So now, you can vibe to your tunes while wandering around in your virtual whatever-you-call-it. Not gonna lie, it’s kind of a game-changer.

But, hey, it’s not like an app-app. More like this fancy web deal called a progressive web app (PWA). Basically, it pops open like its own browser window. So, if you’re thinking about offline jams, nope, not happening—unlike your typical Android or iOS sweetness. But, silver lining? No more fiddling around with browser launches and typing long-ass URLs just to get your groove on.

Oh, hold up—did you ever notice how some tires peeling away on ice sort of sound like they’re ripping wet cardboard? Off-topic, but whatever. Anyway, back to Spotify. It lets you do all those usual audio things: play stuff in the background, blow up video podcasts to full screen, dive into lyrics, and shuffle through artists like it’s Monday morning. Playlists? Yeah, manage those too.

And, shoutout to the bargain hunters, it won’t cost you a dime. Works for both free-loading streamers and paid subscribers. Grab it on the Horizon Store if you’ve got Quest 2 or newer. Pretty neat, right?
