Following the launch of Spotify on PS4 this week, we can now confirm that the music service app was downloaded over 1.5 million times in the first 24 hours!

Spotify allows music lovers to enjoy on-demand music, but also ushers in the freedom for you to soundtrack your games. We love this feature! We downloaded the mobile app after grabbing the Spotify app on PS4 and you can switch tracks in-game without having to go back to the PS4 app (playing Nirvana’s ‘In Bloom’ to a Bloodborne boss battle was very cool).
Users react to Spotify on PS4
Via social media, users have reacted positively to its launch too. On Reddit, Balmung421 writes “Well deserved and hope it gets them more subscribers. Great app and amazing service. Phone/tablet integration is genius.”
@Spotify @PlayStation This app is so well designed. Your UX team deserves some recognition.

We couldn’t agree more. Check it out! There’s a free version and also the opportunity to try the Premium service free for a month, which delivers a better sound quality with no ads.
