Spotify, the popular music player with the largest userbase, is now trying a new feature to lure more customers in. It’s found that the company is about to add support for playing the local music from the user’s device. This support is available in YouTube Music already, and Spotify adding it could be advantageous too.

Spotify Will Now Let You Play Local Music

The Swedish audio player has grown so big that it became a regular target for hackers in recent times and fighting over fake premium account providers.

This doesn’t just mean the songs downloaded in Spotify to be playable offline, but also the local music stored on the device. This is needed, as not everyone gets the internet everywhere.

And this support will eliminate this need since a new option appears in the Settings > Import section shows a toggle as “Show device files.” When enabled, this will scan the device for local music and displays it in the Your Library section to be played.

It’s unknown whether this feature is free for everyone when launched or it’s just exclusive to premium users.
