Many of you have already tried to install Spotify using the Wine Windows emulation. Our team is now offering you a one-click issue-free install of Spotify on your Jolicloud.
The installation is very easy. You click on Spotify from the Jolicloud App Directory, it installs and will work right away with the correct sound configuration. Even better, this version is compatible with Spotify links, so listening to specific music from a direct link or exchanging playlists is now possible.
On this occasion, our friends at Spotify have given us free invites for our Jolicloud users in France, Spain and the UK. If you live in one of those countries, you can click on the following link to sign up and create your Spotify account now: https://www.spotify.com/en/get-started/.
If you live in another country where Spotify is open (Sweden, Finland or Norway) and still wish to create an account, email us at operation.spotify@jolicloud.com. We’ll see what we can do!
Note: for those of you who have manually installed Spotify before, you can uninstall your previous version by clicking on “Uninstall Wine Software” in “Wine” and selecting “Spotify” to start the uninstall process.
This is not the only good news of the day, check our list of cool new apps to install on your Jolicloud:
