I'm using Spotify both on my Android phone and my iPad, and i have enabled the Device Broadcast Status on my Android so it can be shown on my Discord status. I have updated my Discord and Spotify version but everytime i'm using Spotify on my iPad, the status doesn't show up on my Discord. I checked my Spotify app and there is no Device Broadcast Status option in it. Is there any solution?

Hi there @Dita0921,

Thanks for reaching out about this in the Community!

You'll need to have the desktop or web version of discord open in order to see any changes to your Spotify status if you're listening to music on iOS.

What you can try is to open up discord on your Safari browser in the background on your iPad.

Let us know if that works for you.

Cheers.

but why the “Device Broadcast Status” option available on ios?

Hey @TMSz, 

Thanks for getting in touch about this here in the Community. 

Toggling the “Device Broadcast Status” option on in the app settings allows other apps (such as Discord) on your device to see what you are listening to. 

If this isn't what you wanted to know, could you give us more info about what you're trying to do? We'll do our best to help 🙂

We'll be on the lookout.

Hello! Unfortunately the IOS version doesn’t seem to have a device broadcast option so for apps such as discord it doesn’t work at all… is there a way to fix this?

Hey @Mk_is_swag,

Thanks for the reply.

We can confirm, that the device broadcast option is not available on iOS mobile devices.

There is an idea submission about it though and you can leave your vote here.

As we continuously strive to improve the user experience on our platform, we hope to see this option implemented for mobile iOS users as well.

Hope this clears things a bit,

Cheers!
