Holy moly — Spotify actually added support for an iOS feature before Apple released the next version of its operating system!
In a blog post, the company announced it is finally launching a lock screen widget for the iPhone. You’ll need to be using iOS 16, of course, as that is the version of iOS that introduced lock screen widgets, but if your iPhone is up to date, have at it!
While it’s cool that Spotify built a lock screen widget, its functionality is pretty basic. Instead of doing something cool like showing you a song’s progress or some funky way of displaying the album art of the song you are listening to, it’s just a launcher.
