2 Simple Ways to Enable Spotify Web Player in Your Browser

Spotify is currently the most popular music streaming service in the world with more than 240 million users worldwide.

Although it’s available on all major platforms, some users prefer using Spotify in their web browser since it’s more convenient for them.

In today’s article, we’ll show you how to enable Spotify in your browser, so let’s get started.

What is the difference between Spotify and Spotify web player?

A significant number of Spotify users access the music catalog using the online player. In a similar vein, a sizeable proportion of users choose the second available choice, which is the desktop client.

You will need nothing more than a Spotify account in order to use a web player. You are able to listen to music no matter where you are or when you want to. You may even use a device belonging to a buddy to manage your account instead of your own.

It is more inconvenient than using a desktop client since it needs you to bring a personal computer with you wherever you go.

When compared to the desktop version, the Spotify online player often provides a lesser bitrate for users. Free users of Spotify may only receive a bitrate of 128 kbps through the online player, but premium users receive a bitrate of 256 kbps.

On the other hand, users with free desktop client accounts have access to a maximum of 160 kbps, while customers with paid accounts have access to a very high quality of 320 kbps.

Which is better Spotify web or Spotify app?

Having considered the aforementioned distinctions between the Spotify desktop player and the online player, the Spotify web player is the superior option due to its mobility, and availability.

If you want to listen to your favorite songs on Spotify when you are on the road, you do not need to have your personal computer with you.

You will, however, need to use the Spotify desktop client in order to take advantage of offline playback and improved audio quality. So, the better option is the one that suits your need best: portability vs audio quality.
