Spotify is always looking for ways to provide the best possible experience so listeners can consistently discover and enjoy music and podcasts—and that includes look, feel, and functionality.
They constantly test, develop, and launch new features, optimize for new devices, and look to expand their content offering. Yet along the way, Spotify felt that the desktop app experience hadn’t kept up, and that it was time for a change.
That’s why, starting In March, Spotify is rolling out a new improved look and feel for the Spotify app for desktop and web—aligning the experience and making both easier to use than ever before.
Since the desktop experience served as the original window to the world for Spotify, this was not a task we took lightly. It took months of tests and research, talking to users, and gathering feedback. Now, we’re pleased to deliver a new, clean design, more controls, and a great new foundation for our listeners to use Spotify across our desktop app and web player for the years to come.
Says Spotify.
With this redesign, the company is combining the technical opportunity of a modern and scalable web player together with a cohesive Spotify design and the features across the desktop app.
Ultimately, we’re making this change because we believe in the future of both platforms, and we want to make sure it can continue to serve the needs of our users now and in the future.
They conclude.
The new redesign for the Spotify app on desktop and web is rolling out to all users globally over the coming weeks. PC users can download the new Spotify Desktop App on the Windows Store and Epic Game Store. Mac users can download it here. Or, use Spotify on your browser by visiting open.spotify.com.
