Music quality for synced music when online?

[vin_cent]

Hi there, 

• When I sync songs on my iphone (5C), I usually use the ‘normal’ music quality (recommended) in order to get more songs on my device while offline.
• When I’m home, I usually play songs from my iPhone using Wi-Fi, in order to have the best possible music quality --> Stream Quality setting to “Extreme”.

Question: When playing a synced song with my device, but online with wi-fi, does Spotify play it with using the ‘stream quality’ setting ?

Thanks a lot for your answer

As far as I am aware it should stream the higher quality version when you are online.

Thanks for your reply Peter. 

I could not hear the difference until now (poor speakers), but as I'm soon receiving my new home sound system 😉

I hope this is indeed the case. Anyone else ?

Thanks
