Spotify offers a free Google Home Mini to US Spotify Premium for Family subscribers starting from 1st November until 31st December 2018. Starting today, Spotify are teaming up with Google Home to give Spotify Premium for Family master account owners in the US a Google Home Mini as part of their subscription. Music lovers across generations will be able to share their favourite music with the entire family, simply by asking their Google Home Mini powered by the Google Assistant.
Once configured, Voice Match on Google Home can identify up to six people, meaning each person can enjoy a personalised experience.
“We’re excited to be partnering with Google Home to bring the magic of voice to our Spotify Premium Family subscribers. After all, what’s more fun than sharing the music you love with the people you love,” says Alex Norström, Chief Premium Business Officer. “For Family Plan subscribers, enjoying those moments will only get better. Now anytime their favorite artists comes up, they can simply say ‘Hey Google, turn it up!’
