The Sleep Timer feature in Spotify’s music streaming app lets you set the timer anywhere from 5 minutes to an hour. When the set time is completed, the app stops the music playback. While Spotify had announced that it would roll out the app update for the Sleep Timer feature starting today, there is no report of any such update.
Spotify Sleep Timer on Android
In the meantime, Spotify has integrated the function into the Android app. The detour via additional apps like Sleep Timer (music off) is no longer necessary. However, here you will find other practical functions such as extending the sleep time by shaking the device.
● Open Spotify and start the desired song.
● Tap the button with the three dots in the upper right corner.
● Scroll down and you will find the option 'Sleeptimer'.
● You can then select the desired time period.

● You can stop playback after the selected time or after the current song.
● Spotify will then automatically stop playback at the desired time.
Spotify Sleep Timer on iOS
On the iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, you don't need an additional application. Apple has already integrated a Sleep Timer, but it is a bit hidden:
● First open the 'Clock' app.
● Switch to the 'Timer' category below.
● Tap on 'Timer end' in the middle.
● Activate the 'Stop playback' option at the bottom. Internet explorer 11 for mac download.
● Tap on 'Set' in the upper right corner.
● Now select the desired time and tap the 'Start' button.
● As soon as the timer has expired, the music in Spotify is stopped.
Spotify Sleep Timer on Windows
There is also no timer function integrated in the Spotify software for Windows. But here, too, there are several possibilities.
● The easiest way to do this is with an additional program. SleepTimer Ultimate simply shuts down your computer after the desired time.
● Alternatively, you can do without software and give Windows the command itself.

The Spotify app on Android has come under the crosshairs Jane Manchun Wong, a reverse engineer who has been discovering hidden functionality in apps which companies are still testing out.
Today she has uncovered 3 features likely coming to users of the most popular music streaming app in the world.

The second is an interesting feature where you could connect with friends via a scanned code in the app which would let you add songs to a friend’s playlist and vice versa. This would potentially allow for example for a jukebox in a party where attendees can add songs to a playlist or let couples share and update a playlist.

Lastly, after getting Waze integration, it looks like Spotify is also getting Google Maps integration, which means either app can be controlled from the interface of the other, making it safer to use Spotify in the car while navigating for example.

While these features are being tested, there is, of course, no guarantee these will eventually roll out to end users.
