That, however, is expected to change soon as Spotify widely rolls out the login method. When I checked here in India, the ‘Continue with Google’ button was present on the web but not on Android. With this timely step, Spotify might be hoping to make it easier for users who are moving away from Google Play Music.Īs 9to5Google reports, the feature is now live on Android and the web. 'Alexa, play Queen on Spotify' is just science fiction. 'Alexa, play' - works, although it will play whatever was going last time. 'Alexa, play Queen' - nope, does not work. 'Alexa, open the Spotify app' - works, alright whatever, good enough. Spotify’s Google account integration comes at a time when Google has started shutting down Google Play Music for a wide range of users. Seems support is spotty (no pun intended), its driving me crazy. Another advantage of using a Google account to sign up for Spotify is that you get support for two-factor authentication, a crucial security feature that Spotify natively lacks. However, this will be convenient for new users as they can easily use Spotify through their Google account without much hassle. If you’re an existing Spotify user, you will end up creating a new Spotify account if you use the ‘Continue with Google’ button. In other words, you will have to use the email-based sign-in option if your Spotify email address is the same as your Google email address. In a support article, Spotify mentions that you can’t connect your existing Spotify account to Google. The new Spotify-Google integration seems limited for now.
