Is this device compatible with spotify app?

I sent mine back because the software for connecting with the net froze EVERYTIME. Customer service help was horrendous. I got it to replace my j3, which was great. But the z2 was awful in so many ways so I returnedxit.

It is but you have to side load the Google app store which I have done on the Z2 but it has been a couple of years. The only question is if Spotify offers the option of running a compatible version on an outdated version of Android?

Yes, for Spotify, you need a Premium account. For Windows 8.1 you need to setup then PC as a DLNA server, then download the Marantz app for Android and then you are ready to go.

I have only been able to use the headphone jack. When I connect the USB, it doesn't seem to access Android music files. So it will play your Spotify songs, but you will have to change the song on the phone screen, not via the remote control. Also, I kind of agree with Mr. Hernandez' answer.

The short answer is 'no'. The long answer: This device is a receive only converter with many other reasons why it will not work for that app.

This device does not have build-in app but you if you have an GP or AC app on your mobile/tablet, it should be able to play to this via WiFi connection. I have this and the Sony wireless speakers. I find myself using the Sony speakers 95% of the time since it works with both iOS and Android plus build-in app like slacker, Pandora, etc., and support multi-speakers mode if you have more than one, like a "party mode".

From what I've experienced so far, only Pandora. In Bluetooth audio it may give info on songs streamed from Spotify. And the next/skip buttons will work there. How this answers your question

Yep, it's Bluetooth so it will connect any device. I use it for Tunein radio, pandora, spotify, and other apps. This will show up the same way airplay does on an iPhone.

I do not know. However as all blue tooth devices it does search automatically for nearest blue tooth signal. I assume it is compatible. Music quality & loudness is poor- fair

Using my android smartphone with bluetooth, I am able to control basic features of Spotify. However, meta data does not show. Reading Spotify forums this is more likely a Spotify problem than this unit. Older versions of Spotify has worked great with this unit.Using the USB cable into the unit does not make a difference either. Neither does using the aux/in.All other music apps seem to work fine, just Spotify seems to have problems. This Kenwood unit is awesome!

I am assuming you are speaking of two music apps. If that is the case the only way is to connect your device to the speaker.

I never download spotify app, to answer your question I tried to download it but they said: we are sorry, but currently we only support windows and Mac, so I guess is not supported in this phone

Yes, they're not integrated into the unit like Pandora but music you play through them will stream just fine through the aux cable, USB, or Bluetooth. I play Spotify through the bluetooth everyday and it sounds great.

I don't know about Spotify (never used it) but Pandora works just fine (that I use often). The in-dash changer has to be set to slot #5. The first 4 are playlists (per the manual which is pretty easy to follow)

I used pandora and spotify on my phone with it. The speaker responds to whatever is playing on your device

No problems with Pandora or 3GS. It is just a 3.5mm interface to your phone. It will play whatever your phone is outputting - iPod, Pandora, Spotify -you name it.

I am not usign Pandora neither Spotify but i do use Rdio (is the same). The receiver is compatible with Airplay so the only thing you need is to have your tablet of phone to the same network. The downside is that you are not able to airplay from a device different than a Mac. However i am considering that Mac is far more reliable. I am capable to stream without troubles
