Pro Tip: Here is a list of all the icons and symbols on Spotify and what they mean.
Display Spotify on Discord Status and Profile
Once connected and enabled, whenever you play a song on Spotify, Discord should automatically show the Listening to Spotify status on your Discord.
Your Discord friends and other users can hover over your username to get a peak at your mini-profile view. It shows the song that you are currently listening to along with the Seek bar.
They can click on the Play on Spotify button to open Spotify and listen to the same song.
Also, premium users can click on the Listen Along button (person with a play icon) to request to join you. So both can listen to the song together with the Spotify Listen Along feature.
In case, you have also enabled the Display on profile option in the Connections settings, then your Spotify Account link will also be added to your profile like this. But it’s not available on the mini profile like the status feature.
Spotify X Discord
If you love music and are connected with the music communities on Discord, then you must enable the Spotify connection for your Discord friends to check. Anyhow, more than Spotify, Discord allows you to connect with many other services like Twitter, YouTube, Twitch, etc. You can also connect your game console accounts like Play Station and Xbox to your Discord account to use Discord voice channels to chat while gaming.
