Stream Spotify while using Strava using their new integration that enables users to easily stream music, podcasts and audiobooks while tracking their workout activities on Strava. Listeners can play, pause, resume, skip, and browse Spotify favourites from the record screen on Strava. This new integration removes the need for Spotify users to switch between apps and allows them to easily tap into the motivation that gets them moving.
Ian Geller, VP of Business Development at Spotify said, “One of our biggest goals at Spotify is to be everywhere our listeners are – whether that’s on a run, in the gym, or anyplace in between. “This integration with Strava is another way we’re moving with our listeners and allowing them to seamlessly connect to the music and audio they love.”
Some of the top-streamed user generated workout playlists from the past month include rap artists Drake, 21 Savage, Nicki Minaj, and Rihanna. “I’m Good (Blue)” by Bebe Rehxa and David Guetta, “INDUSTRY BABY (feat. Jack Harlow)” by Lil Nas X and Jack Harlow, and “Unholy (feat. Kim Petras)” by Sam Smith and Kim Petras.
Mateo Ortega, Strava’s Vice President of Connected Partnerships said, “Over time, the consumption of music has evolved dramatically from CDs to streaming, which has opened the door for audio to inspire us in ways they couldn’t before. “We’re excited to partner with a global leader like Spotify to seamlessly integrate music and movement on the platform. This new feature further solidifies Strava’s position at the centre of connected fitness and continues to demonstrate the power of the global community of active people on Strava.”
Starting on 20th April Strava is taking over Spotify’s popular Workout playlist.
