Whether you have an Android or an iPhone, we’ll guide you through the process of using Spotify as your alarm, so you can wake up feeling joyful.
Revamping your mornings and starting the day on a positive note is incredibly easy. Simply set an alarm as you normally would, but instead of selecting a default alarm tone, choose the music app to pick your desired wake-up sound. We’ll provide a detailed explanation of the process, ensuring you can do it effortlessly on any device. Although the steps may vary slightly on an iPhone, you’ll still find it quite straightforward.
Set an alarm with songs from Spotify
While it is widely recognized that Android is renowned for its customization features, it is the only operating system that enables you to set an alarm on your mobile device using a song from Spotify. However, iPhone users can achieve a similar functionality through Apple Music. This means that regardless of the brand of your device, you have the ability to wake up to your favorite melodies and even assign different songs to each alert. It’s important to note that this option is only accessible if you have previously downloaded the Spotify app on your Android phone. Otherwise, you won’t find one of the options mentioned below.
