Linking your Spotify account to Discord is a quick and simple process that lets your friends see what you’re listening to in real time. It also adds Spotify as a visible connection on your Discord profile, and enables features like sharing your music activity or letting others listen along. This video provides a step-by-step guide on how to connect your Spotify account to Discord and ensure it works properly on both ends.
To get started, open the Discord app on your mobile device. Tap the profile icon in the bottom right corner to access your user settings. From the settings menu, scroll down and tap on “Connections.” This is where you can link external services like Spotify.
If you haven’t already linked Spotify, tap the add button in the top right corner and select Spotify from the list of available platforms. You’ll be redirected to a login page—make sure to sign in using the Spotify account you want to connect. Once logged in, you’ll return to the Discord app, and you should now see Spotify listed under your connected accounts.
At this point, two toggle options will appear: one to “Display on profile” and another to “Display Spotify as your status.” Enable both of these to make sure your activity shows up while you're listening to music.
Now open the Spotify app and log in to the same account you just linked. Tap your profile icon in the top left, go to “Settings and Privacy,” then scroll down to “Playback.” Here, find the option called “Device Broadcast Status” and turn it on. This setting allows Spotify to share your listening activity with Discord and other connected services.
Once everything is set up, just play a song in Spotify, and within a few seconds, your current track will appear in your Discord status. Friends who click on your name can view the song and may even be able to listen along if they have Spotify Premium.
