[Partnership] Add Sign-in with Google

[mmichonski]

Hey, as Spotify users we can sign into the service either by entering our username, email, or by clicking a button that signs us in through Facebook or Apple. Sign-in with Google, however, is not an option yet, although it is a standard sign-in service used by most high profile businesses. It would also be useful for every time users login to Spotify Web Player at work in incognito mode, which for some might be daily. Please add this basic feature so that users can spend more time listening to great music and less time logging in. Thanks!

This idea keeps getting posted since several years now, and still no implementation from Spotify.

With no possibility of 2FA and no Google login, myself and I'm sure many other users are facing constant hacks from bot farms from Russia, etc.

This should be handled with priority, as it poses a serious security risk.

Spotify has finally implemented this! Thank you, Spotify, and everyone who upvoted it.

I am still getting the below error, but hopefully Spotify can share how to connect Spotify to your Google account.

We need a post on how to get this setup!

Hello all it's been implemented here is the help page:

Thank you for providing the implementation guide!

Are there any plans to allow users to connect their existing usernames to be able to login with Google?

The instructions currently state: "You can’t currently connect an existing account to Google."

any ETA when existing accounts can login with Google ?
