How To Use Spotify in Discord App To Listen, Game and Chat

Discord is, without a shadow of a doubt, one of the most popular VoIP and instant messaging apps. You can easily have a voice, video, or text chat, send various media files, and carry out many other activities. Likewise, it also includes multiple third-party app integrations. One of them is the music streaming giant Spotify. Once you connect your Discord account with Spotify, you can listen to your favorite tracks while chatting with others on the Discord app.

Along the same lines, you view the song title your friends are playing. If it meets your requirements, you could directly play that song right away as well. Not only that, but you could also invite other friends and listen to the same song together. On that note, let’s start with the instructions on using Spotify in the Discord App. We will also mention the steps to make the most of all the aforementioned features. Follow along.

How To Use Spotify in Discord App

While we will be keeping our focus on the Discord app, you could also try out these features on its desktop app or the website. Anyways, once we are through with the account integration steps, we will also show you how to use the “Listen Along” feature. The final section will then list out the steps to disconnect your Spotify account from Discord.

Connecting Spotify Account to Discord

1. Launch the Discord app on your device and log in with your credentials
2. Then click on the Profile icon situated at the bottom right.
3. Head over to the Connections section and tap on the Add option present at the top right.
   
4. Select Spotify from the list that appears. Then log in with your credentials and you might have to authorize the Spotify account. For that, read the terms and conditions, and hit the Agree button situated at the bottom.
5. Once done, you should see the Connected message. Hit the Close button to go back to the app.
   
6. You should see your Spotify account in the Discord app, under the Connections tab.
7. There you would also find two features: Disable on profile and Display Spotify as your Status. Here is what both these features do:
   
   • Display Spotify as your Status: as and when you play a song on Spotify on the same device through which you are logged into Discord, your status will be changed to “Listening to Spotify.”
   • Disable on profile: When enabled, users could click on your username to get hold of the track that you are playing. They could then play the same track on their PC as well.
8. However, if you don’t like either of these two features, then you could disable both these features by simply toggling them off under the Connection section.

Now that the account integration is complete, you could use Spotify inside the Discord app without any issue.
