I hope Spotify and other companies take note of how you can create what I call a "PWA+" on Windows 10, meaning a PWA that is wrapped into a UWP application and then enhanced with Windows 10 features. Each of these tiles on the Start Menu features album or artist artwork rather than just the app's logo.Īll of the features of Xpotify add up to create an excellent Spotify experience on Windows 10. You can pin artists, albums, playlists and more. See that the app.js file contains three calls to the Spotify Accounts Service: The first call is the service ‘/authorize’ endpoint, passing to it the client ID, scopes, and redirect URI. Xpotify also adds the ability to pin specific pages to the Start Menu. This means that the app requests access to the user full name, profile image, and email address. You can also control your music using a mini player in Compact Overlay mode or by hovering over the taskbar and controlling media. These, and other features make it easy to control your music.
Xpotify supports media keys, media bar integration, and taskbar integration. Xpotify adds many Windows 10-specific features that make it a better experience than just using the PWA, and in my opinion, a better experience than using Spotify's desktop app. Thankfully, that's not the case with Xpotify.
When I reviewed Pinterest's PWA in the Microsoft Store, I pointed out that it was essentially the same as Pinterest installed through the browser. You can install them through Chrome and the latest insider versions of Microsoft Edge.
