Additional FAQs

Why Can’t I Listen to Spotify While on Discord?

There may be several reasons why you can’t listen to Spotify while on Discord.

• If your friend streams music from their Spotify and you don’t have Spotify Premium, you can’t listen to their Spotify. Users on both ends need to have Spotify Premium.

• If you are in a game connected to Discord, listening to Spotify will be blocked until you exit the game.

• Discord may mute your Spotify when you’re in a call. To prevent this, go to Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Sound > Communications. Then, check the “Do nothing” option.

• If you are logged in to your Spotify account on multiple devices, go to the one that is currently connected to the same device as your Discord and play a song. (e.g. If you are using Discord on desktop, play a song in the Spotify desktop app.)
