What is the wake word for voice control? The legal notice mentions a wake word, but I can't find any information about it. It would seem silly to implement a voice control feature that requires a long press on the screen to activate. I am hoping to switch from to a Spotify family account from another service, but having to press the search button on the screen is a no-go, since we listen a lot while driving.
"Is Spotify recording all of my conversations?
No. Spotify will begin receiving your voice input data when you press the action button or say the wake word, and continue until Spotify has processed your question or request.
The device will always indicate to you when Spotify is listening for the wake-word, and when Spotify is receiving your voice input. When listening for the wake-word, Spotify listens in short snippets of a few seconds which are deleted if the wake-word is not detected."
