Best Spotify Siri Shortcuts for iPhone

Play Spotify Album

You can speak a name of an album and the Spotify will play songs from that particular album on your device. When you speak this command, Spotify automatically begins to play the selected album on your iPhone or iPad. In case there is more than one album with the same name, you can speak the year in which the album is released.

Play Spotify Track

Want to play a track of an artist or from an album? You can say ‘Play Spotify (name of the track),’ and the app will play that song for you. Just pronounce the name of artists or albums precisely and enjoy the song. Like the album, Spotify will automatically play the track you have spoken.

Search Spotify Playlist

If you have created some playlists on Spotify, you can search one of those playlists on your iPhone or iPad. Since this is a search query, the music app will not play songs directly. When Spotify presents you with results, you can either speak the track name or select a song by tapping on the screen manually.

Search Spotify Artist

Like a playlist, you can search your favorite artist from the Spotify app. Again, this will not play any song of that artist. Spotify will show you albums or songs created by the artist. From the list, you can either select an album or song composed/sung by that artist.

That’s all friends!

Signing off…

More shortcuts are coming your way. Apple will keep improving its intelligent voice assistant to make your life more comfortable. This Siri integration in Spotify also explains the music app’s popularity in the United States.

Now make the most of these easy shortcuts to rev up your music experience. I’m sure they will be of great help.

Apple Music has emerged as the biggest competitor to Spotify. Due mainly to the huge library of songs and rich content, Apple’s music-streaming service has become a strong rival.

Though it’s still far behind (with around 30 million active users), many believe that it will soon become the number one music-streaming app in the United States.

Personally, I have enjoyed listening to both of them. As a user, I would really like the competition to get stiffer as it’s only then the best would come.
