Dive Into Music: Spotify Miniplayer in Facebook App
Facebook is slowly but steadily stepping into the world of social audio. In collaboration with Spotify, the social network has a new way for you to listen to music and podcasts right from in the Facebook app.
Facebook and Spotify have created a miniplayer and embedded it into the social media app to allow users to stream Spotify content through the Facebook app.
Enjoy Your Favorite Spotify Content on the Facebook App
Before the rollout of this new miniplayer, it was already possible to share Spotify songs on Facebook with friends and family. But whenever you wanted to listen to them, you were automatically redirected to the Spotify app or website.
Now, you can enjoy your favorite tunes without ever leaving the Facebook app.

In a post onFor the Record , the streaming service announced the launch of its miniplayer within the Facebook app. The new feature is available on both iOS and Android.
Also, it doesn’t matter whether you use Spotify for free or have a subscription since the built-in music player is available for everyone. Just with the usual limitations applied to anyone listening for free.

Spotify’s miniplayer has already launched in the US, Canada, Australia, and in 25 other countries. Spotify is planning to expand this feature to more countries over the following months.
