Following weeks of testing, Spotify's new media playback options trough the Siri voice assistant are now available to everyone. In addition, Spotify now includes a dedicated app for the Apple TV set-top box, as mentioned in the release notes of the latest version of the app.
Spotify believes Apple conducts itself in anticompetitive behavior on a regular basis, and has been trying to get a lot more people to agree with that view.
While streaming music is what helped propel Spotify to become one of the most popular streaming services out there, the company's focus has been shifting.
Despite a closing gap between Apple Music and Spotify, the latter streaming service still holds a considerable lead with millions of users. So it only makes sense that Apple would (finally) add support for Siri voice controls for media playback.
A free trial for a service is meant to offer everything, without an upfront cost, in an attempt to get subscribers to keep coming back and paying for it. Up until recently, Spotify's standard free trial was just one month, but that has changed.

Parents will finally be able to toggle the explicit content filter in Spotify for any of their kids' sub-accounts, a feature that the company says people have been asking about for years now.
Spotify has what I’ve come to appreciate as one of the nicest music players available for the iOS platform today, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t things I’d do to make it even better. In fact, when I learned about the release of a new jailbreak tweak called SpinThatRecord by iOS developer Menuskha, I was immediately intrigued.
Just as the name implies, SpinThatRecord modifies the Spotify Music app’s native music player such that the album artwork appears as a spinning record rather than a standstill square image. You’ll notice in the screenshot examples above that the album artwork is now shaped like a vinyl record, and below, you’ll find an animated GIF that showcases how the tweak looks as the album rotates:
According to a new report, Apple and Spotify are currently in discussion to finally gain a truce between the two companies, all in an effort to finally bring an oft-requested feature to iOS users.

Despite the fact that Apple Music has been growing at an alarming rate ever since its debut, the streaming music primary competitor, Spotify, still holds a healthy lead.
