This is an iOS app, but if it isn’t what you were hoping for, check out these other projects. A CLI UI for Spotify [0] Spotify as a daemon [1] [0] https://github.com/Rigellute/spotify-tui [1] https://github.com/Spotifyd/spotifyd
Does anyone know why Spotify doesn’t pursue name rights or DMCA takedowns in all these OSS projects, as they reverse engineer and use Spotify’s name? Snapchat practices DMCA/copyright for a lot for these sort of projects.
looks like you're using the web api instead of the IOS sdk? any reason for that? is the ios sdk not in swift yet ? It was a pain to setup the last time i looked at it.
OT: does anyone know why an existing playlist would suddenly become something comepletwly different? I used to listen to a Carnatic Classical playlist (Here’s a playlist for you… Carnatic Classical by Spotify https://open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9dQZF1DWZqTcNLmb3sH?si=... ) and now it’s just changed to something completely different. Honestly this made me want to leave!
I have a question for those familiar with Spotify API. Do they serve you the song's audio bits and if they do how do they do DRM?
My first thought, upon seeing this is licensed under the GPLv3, is that it wouldn't be legal to run under iOS, as the Tivoization aspect would come into play. However, as there is but one author, this issue doesn't materialize, although the sole author is the only one who can legally submit this to run under any machine, barring that private app exception I'm rather certain someone would mention if I didn't first.

Thank you for the comment. I learned a few things about licensing. The main reason I chose GPL was because I don't want someone else building a commercial closed source application based on my app; others can still fork the project and modify it. I don't intend to release this app on any other platform but others who want to may feel free - I think GPL allows for this. In the end, I don't really care what others do w…
GPL is generally the best choice for that.

There’s no popular license that I know of that requires people to tell you about their fork. They can just release it and publish the code along with it.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
As in, actual audio? Or metadata?
Pulls in metadata. I use the metadata's external url to open the track in spotify.

It would’ve been better if you had answered the question clearly at the first instance. This thread seemed like playing 20 questions.
Seemed pretty obvious to me.
