Spotify Connect Device Switcher for Home Office Professionals
Jump playback between the Web Player and other devices.
💡 Overview
Sometimes the right speaker is not the one in front of you. Your desk is your office, kitchen table and sometimes classroom.
The mini-player header includes a one-click trigger for the device drawer, which lets you switch playback between the Web Player, desktop, smart speakers and phone. You can move music to another room without opening the Spotify tab.
