Thanks to iOS, Spotify remembered that it had a widget. He’s remaking it now

The popular music streaming platform Spotify has launched redesign your playback widget to the desktop of smart mobile phones. There probably wouldn’t be anything extra special about such a report if it didn’t happen about two years after the developers of this service last touched it and didn’t really care about it at all. They even turned off the widget completely in 2019, and it was brought back by the reluctance of users. The reason sudden interest in modernizing this panel is most likely the release of iOS 14, which has finally introduced widgets to delicious apple phones.

So a thing called a widget has become an interesting thing for Spotify again after a long time. And fortunately, Android users will also benefit. In the attached pictures you can see what the developers and graphic designers have prepared so far. The widget shown is already available in beta version of the application Spotify marked v8.6.40.914.

The redesign is not yet a dramatic, but a modern look a bit “Grinds the Edges”. There will still be only three control buttons, the artist name, the song title and the album art. But according to him, maybe he could widget in the future change your color. This would, among other things, correspond to the visual of the entire Android 12.

Do you have a Spotify widget on your desktop? How often do you use it?
