Show Current Song Info (Spotify)

SEAT NEEDED: Trial, First Class

Show your current song information on your Split-Flap TV to inform viewers and listeners. You know that situation. You are sitting in a pub and a song is playing. You know the song, but you can’t remember the name, the artist, or the group. That uncertainty is over when you can synchronize your Spotify account with your Split-Flap TV and show the current song’s title, artist, and album on your screen.

To connect a display to your Spotify current song, go to your devices, edit the device where you want to show the information and click the green Spotify icon at the bottom. This will ask for permission to connect your Split-Flap display device to your Spotify account. Afterward, you can always remove the connectivity by clicking the red icon. Note that no other information than the current song, artist, and album are synchronized. Nothing else from your Spotify account is collected by the system.

To show Spotify’s now playing information on a Split-Flap TV use this shortcode below.
