Comments and Reviews
What NewPipe or Vanced are to YouTube, Spotube is to Spotify.
It has a problem with spotube randomly fetching from youtube M/V audio sources (unnecessary background noises) , replacing the official version of audio you added into your playlist. It is super annoying since it doesn't only affect playlists but search outcomes as well.
Spotube is banned
Great ad-less client for Spotify that is open source. It feels almost like Spotify Premium. I just wish Apple would allow it on iOS.
Spotube is super buggy right now, making it almost impossible to use. I really like the concept and the cool features like Spotify integration, but those annoying bugs need to be fixed. Edit: The app has definitely improved! Shoutout to the developer(s) for that
It got a LOT better I remember being unable to use it because it used to load ages to play anything
This application is excellent, akin to YouTube Revanced or Yt-dlp in terms of music downloading. However, it does not offer the possibility to customize the download.
