Go straight to your music with Spotify Tap

Go straight to your music with Spotify Tap and start streaming exactly where you left off with one tap. Instead of turning on your phone’s Bluetooth, placing it in your pocket, shoving the buds in your ear, juggling your coffee to the other hand, and finally, reaching back into your pocket to grab your phone again to open up your Spotify app and press play – you can simply launch your next listening session with a single tap of a button.

Simply put on your headphones and get your tunes playing with a tap. Your music will start streaming from wherever you left off. Another tap plays a different recommendation just for you.

You can find Spotify Tap on headphones and earbuds from the likes of Samsung, Microsoft Surface, Bose, Skullcandy, and Jabra, with even more brands coming later this year and in 2022. A full list of compatible headphones can be found in Explore Spotify.

Many brands support Spotify Tap right out of the box. While on some models, you do need to configure Spotify Tap in order to get going.

How to configure Spotify Tap

  1. Download the companion app for your headphones or earbuds, then open the app and navigate to settings to configure the shortcut button
  2. Select ‘Spotify Tap’
  3. Out of the app, simply tap the headphone shortcut button and Spotify will immediately resume from where you last left off

Spotify Tap will continue to evolve and move to even more surfaces in the future and is likely to be extended to smart speakers, phones and watches.
