Can I use the lightsaber effect that comes with the Star Wars playlists in my daily usage in other playlists ?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hello @PURE_Vengeance @kanguv @Ricepudding
- You can enable the saber effect at anytime by typing in the search box : THX1138 (type it manually don't copy/paste and don't forget caps)
- To get rid of it, just restart Spotify.
I would like to know this too, its an awesome effect!
I wanna know also...what a cool effect and what a waste if we can't keep it. Spotify is already so great this would just be a great Holiday present ๐

Hello @ColinZeal and welcome to the community.
I have just tested it right now and it's still working ๐
Just type this manually (don't copy/paste) in the search box of the Spotify desktop : THX1138
It's absolutelt awesome! Great job, thanks!!!!!!
it was working up until today, for some reason. it might be on my end, I've been having random issues with my computer, the last few days, though.
Did they get rid of it, or is it just me?
Hello @WannaBeatle
Sorry to hear that. I have just tested it right now on the latest desktop version 1.0.45.186 and it's still working.
Maybe try to uninstall and reinstall Spotify and don't forget : it needs to directly type the code THX1138 in the search box. No copy/paste and always caps on.
I Hope it will work.
Good Luck ๐
I just successfully made it work.
Make sure that you type "THX1138" exactly. Do not copy and paste it and make sure that you use all capital letters
It's exactly what I said in the post before yours ๐ ๐ ๐
Star Wars is back. Keep to be a Jedi. The lightsaber is still there ๐
Enjoy...
hi! I am trying to get the effect but I am on a chrome book and does not seem to work. any solutions?
Hey there @axllambnz,
Thanks for posting about this here in the Community!
Just to confirm, are you trying this on the Web Browser?
Keep in mind that the lightsaber effect is only available on the desktop app.
However, we don't support a native version of the desktop app on Chromebook devices so it'd explain why you're having troubles seeing this.
For more info on using Spotify on a Chromebook device, we'd recommend taking a look at this Spotify Answer.
Let us know how you get on! We'll be right here if you have any questions or need more help.
Have a lovely day ๐
