How to Set Up and Use Spotify on Google Home?

Before you can enjoy Spotify music on Google Home, you need to link your Spotify account to your Google Home. This will allow you to use voice commands on your phone to control Spotify on Google Home. Here are the steps to do that:

• Step 1. Download and open the Google Home app on your smartphone or tablet.
• Step 2. Tap the plus sign (+) at the top left of the screen and select Music.
• Step 3. Select Spotify from the list of music services and tap Link Account, then Log in to Spotify.

💡 You can also set Spotify as your default music service on Google Home, so you don’t have to say "on Spotify" at the end of your voice commands. To do that:

• Tap Music under services and select Spotify as the default music player.

That’s it! You have successfully connected your Spotify account to a Google Home and set it as your default music service on Google Home. Now you can start playing music with voice controls or your phone.

Spotify Premium lets you play any song, album, playlist, or podcast on Google Home without ads or interruptions. Spotify Free also works on Google Home, but only in shuffle mode with ads. To play Spotify music on Google Home on demand with Spotify Free, see part 3.
