Under the subject
”[iOS] Airplay 2 Support for iOS ”there is a longer thread in the Spotify forum
, where users almost begging to provocative support for Airplay 2 on iOS devices. There is now, dated August 7th, the release message for affected Spotify users in the style of a “status update” – the developer apologizes for the “confusion” that may have arisen. To make it clear then the message: Spotify will support Airplay 2! However, there is not yet an exact point in time from when this will be the case.
As
iPhone-Ticker.de
reported, a Spotify employee had previously suggested in the community forum that the project had been put on hold due to compatibility problems with audio drivers. Many Apple users would like to be able to send their music to individual loudspeakers or in the multiroom environment via the Airplay protocol. This will probably be possible as soon as the function is activated.
Comment:
Spotify is one of Apple’s loudest critics when it comes to asking Cupertino to access the latest APIs such as Siri. At the same time, the Swedish music streamer is dragging away some useful functions that Apple has released to developers for years. So music download on the Apple Watch by Spotify was only implemented this summer, although the competition like
Pandora
long passed. In this respect, it would be high time and a good sign if Spotify finally followed suit with this elementary and useful function of Airplay 2 and Apple users came here to meet them.
