You can play Spotify directly from your TV, or by using your phone, tablet, or desktop as a remote.

Spotify Showtime App

To see if your TV supports the Spotify app, go to the app store on your TV and search for Spotify. If your TV isn't listed, you can upgrade it with a soundbar or streamer that supports Spotify Connect.

If you cancel or upgrade to a different plan (e.g. Duo or Family), you'll lose access to Hulu. Students can still get access to Hulu's ad-supported plan and SHOWTIME (see below). Whether you're new to Premium for Students or already have it, get access to Spotify Premium, Hulu’s ad-supported plan, and SHOWTIME for just $4.99/month!

For more info on the types of devices Spotify is available on, check out Spotify Everywhere.

Get started

  1. Download Spotify from your TV app store.
  2. Log in one of these three ways to play:
    • With Spotify Connect.
    • With your Spotify email address and password.
      Note: If you usually log in with Facebook, use Spotify Connect to log in instead.
    • With a PIN. Select LOG IN WITH PIN. Then, on your phone or computer, go to www.spotify.com/pair and enter the pin you see on your screen.

You can listen to Spotify on your TV by using the Spotify app on your phone as a remote.
