Okay, so here’s the scoop — Spotify, that music thing we all use (or at least pretend to), now has this web app for Quest. Kinda cool, right? But it’s not your typical app. It’s like, this progressive web app or something, which basically means it opens up in its own little browser window. Like a tiny theater for your tunes. Fancy, huh?
Now, here’s the catch. You can’t use it offline. Nope, no downloading your playlists for when you’re in a Wi-Fi dead zone. So, you’re stuck with creating that awkward dance of finding a signal. But hey, it spares you the whole open-browser-go-to-Spotify spin. So there’s that. Small wins.
I came across this totally random sound description in my head when I first tried it — like the music felt like whispers through crunchy autumn leaves. Weird, right? Anyway…
Oh, and if you’re the type who likes stuff in the background (like me), it’s great. You can just let it sit there, quietly playing while you do… well, whatever it is you do in the virtual world. Or blow it up full-screen to watch those video podcasts. Lyrics fan? They’ve got that too — you can sing along if that’s your thing.
Oh right, forgot to mention — it’s free. Well, if you consider the freemium model “free.” It plays nice with both freebie and paid accounts. You’ll find it lurking on the Horizon Store, just hanging out, waiting for you. Quest 2 or newer, though. So if you’re rocking any earlier version, you might be out of luck. Yeah, progress. Or something.
