What is new in Spotifly
Latest stable release of Spotifly (v1.3.0) ## What's New The lead of each changelog entry. The full 1.3.0 section, with what is behind each line, is in [CHANGELOG.md](https://github.com/ralph/Spotifly/blob/v1.3.0/CHANGELOG.md#130---2026-10-03). ### Added - Back (⌘[) and Forward (⌘]) in the Navigate menu. - A playlist's cover can be set and removed. - Autoplay. - A free account browses, and is told why this Mac does not play. - Tracks Spotify will not play are greyed out, and stepped over. - Spatial Audio for Spotify's stereo. - Spotify Connect handover in both directions. - The next track is fetched before the current one ends. - Add to Queue reaches the device that is playing. - A theme switch in Settings. - Tests for the Swift playback stack, which arrived with none. - Environment hooks for testing without anyone at the keyboard, all inert unless set; `DEVELOPMENT.md` lists them. - A Debug build logs a Connect handover's state whole, as the base64 `TransferState` it came as (`Transfer data: …`), since the parsed one keeps only what this player acts on. ### Changed - Whether the now-playing bar shows playing comes from the player's snapshot alone. - "Show all tracks" is a page of the search, and the route's drill-down path is gone. - Every localization key is visible to the compiler, and a test finds strings no code uses. - Views no longer write the store. …
