Along with our desktop, mobile, and tablet apps, you can play Spotify from the comfort of your browser on our web player.

Integrates with Spotify. We believe music is better with friends. JQBX lets you be a DJ, join a party, or just kick back and listen to music with friends or strangers from all over the world in real time. JQBX hooks into your Spotify account and is 100% free to use. Give it a try and start listening. This is the browse section of Spotify, but with a faster way to access the options. You can pin any page to the Start screen for quick access too. A few extra features. Xpotify has a Mini View, which turns the app into a pop-up player that stays on top of other windows. The settings section of the app is concise and to the point.

You can access the entire Spotify catalog and use many of the same features offered by our app, including:

  • Search for artists, albums, tracks, and playlists.
  • Browse our Featured section, New Releases, and Genres & Moods.
  • Access and edit Your Library, including Playlists, Songs, Albums, and Artists.
  • View artist pages.

The web player is supported by the following web browsers:

Not working?

  • Your web browser may need updating. You can check and update it in the Help section of your browser’s menu.
  • Try opening the web player in a private/incognito window. Find the option to open a new private/incognito window in your browser’s menu.
  • If you see the message “Playback of protected content is not enabled”, check out Enable the web player.
  • Check @SpotifyStatus for any ongoing issues.
  • Some shared or public networks (e.g. schools/work/office) restrict access to certain services. You can contact those responsible for managing the network for more information.

If it's still not working for you, try listening on the desktop app instead.

Use the app to play music files stored on your device, which we call local files.

Note: Files or downloads from illegal sources are not permitted.

For: Premium

  1. On desktop, import your local files (with the 'Desktop' steps).
  2. Add the files to a new playlist.
  3. Log in on your mobile or tablet using the same WiFi as your desktop.
  4. Go to Settings > Local Files and switch on Local audio files.
    Note: You need to allow Spotify to find devices in the prompt that shows.
  5. Download the playlist with your local files.

Make sure:

  • You're logged in to the same account on both your desktop and mobile

If your file isn’t supported, we do our best to match it with songs from the Spotify catalog. The version we match with might differ from the original.
