Features

Following are the features that currently spotube offers:

• Open Source
• Anonymous/Guest Login
• Cross platform
• No telemetry, diagnostics or user data collection
• Lightweight & resource friendly
• Native performance (Thanks to Flutter+Skia)
• Playback control is on user's machine instead of server based
• Small size & less data hungry
• No spotify or youtube ads since it uses all public & free APIs (But it's recommended to support the creators by watching/liking/subscribing to the artists youtube channel or add as favourite track in spotify. Mostly buying spotify premium is the best way to support their valuable creations)
• Synced Lyrics
• Downloadable track
