OPPO Teams Up with Spotify for Smart and Customized Music Experiences in ColorOS 13



Smart Always-On-Display supports Spotify controls and information display

With the Spotify app fully integrated with many new smart features in ColorOS 13, listeners can now enjoy music, podcasts and audiobooks with easier access and convenient control over the Spotify app on the home screen of their OPPO device in markets where listeners may register for and use the Spotify service. This includes:

  • Smart Always-On-Display (AOD):The AOD gives Spotify listeners a whole new way to keep their music, podcasts and audiobooks at their fingertips. Spotify users can now know what Spotify content is currently playing simply by glancing at the AOD and double-clicking on the music control panel, without the need to wake the device up. The AOD integration also allows users to access and control playback of their favorite audio content from Spotify and access Spotify content recommendations - all without unlocking the device.
  • Shelf:The new Shelf feature in ColorOS 13 includes an in-built Spotify Card containing Spotify content recommendations and through which users have access to their favorite music on the Spotify app just a slide away.
