  • On September 1st Plum's integration with Spotify will become much more limited

    I did my best to not make this post one long rant so I'll say this about the whole situation: I think that the way Spotify handled this whole situation is embarrassing and totally hostile towards us, developers. They only gave us one and a half months of notice about the change, they purposefully ignore any discussion about this change on their own forums, they left us with half-working SDK which is poorly documented and which could potentially break with new updates to Spotify and has over 170 open issues on Github, which mostly have not been addressed in any way by Spotify staff. We basically have to figure everything out by ourselves.
  • Spotify is killing integration with 3rd party mobile apps starting on September 1st

    They advise developers to start using the "modern" SDK but unfortunately in its current state it is not a viable replacement for the tools we've been using for years. It offers no direct access to music stream which is a dealbreaker for apps offering any kind of EQ or apps which want to enhance the playback in any way, for example mix with other sounds. It also has a lot of issues on its own, for example it requires the Spotify app to be always running in the background which forces user to having to switch between the two apps constantly to keep the connection alive. On Github there are currently more 170 open issues and only few have been addressed by Spotify staff in any way. Most problems are being figured out by the community itself because the official documentation covers only the basics and doesn't provide any help when dealing with errors, which as I said appear very common when using the "modern" SDK.
