Overview

• Spotify launches a new Desktop Miniplayer feature for its desktop app, enhancing multitasking by allowing users to listen to music and watch videos while using other applications.
• The Miniplayer is currently available exclusively to Spotify Premium subscribers and can be activated through an icon next to the app's volume slider.
• The resizable floating window of the Miniplayer can display in various sizes and includes basic controls like play/skip and album thumbnails.
• Spotify, the world's largest music streaming service with 602 million users, introduces the Miniplayer after long-standing requests from its community.
• The feature aims to eliminate the need for third-party miniplayer apps and competes with similar functionality offered by Apple Music.
