Getting started with listening to music on Spotify is easy: There are Spotify apps you can download from your favourite app store, but you can also access it via the web or cast it from your phone to other devices. So you can listen on your phone, your computer, your television, your smart speaker and many other devices. Spotify is wonderfully multi-device capable too. You can also download tracks, albums and other content for listening offline too. Spotify lets you access a massive and ever-growing library of audio (and video) content basically wherever you are in the world, as long as you have an internet connection.

The free version of Spotify can be accessed on PC, laptop, and mobile phone, but the full service needs a Spotify Premium subscription. You can find out the main differences between Spotify Free and Premium in our separate feature but as a quick summary, the free version is ad-supported, much like radio stations.
