Spotify is the ultimate source of all kinds of new and old music worldwide. This application is available on the smartphone. Also, a user can access it on the desktop app. Most people work on their desktops and laptops while listening to music on it. While busy at work, it can be distracting to constantly switch to the Spotify app to change a track, mute a song, or create a playlist of songs that you just heard. So, knowing the Spotify keyboard shortcuts will be helpful for you.
Right from your keyboard, you can execute many functions on Spotify. As usual, the keyboard commands are available for Windows and macOS users. MacOS has a few more shortcuts than Windows OS. The commands are similar except for where Windows OS uses the Control key, and macOS utilizes the CMD or Command key.
