Music videos on Spotify will extend support to its premium subscribers in 85 more countries. This feature was previously only limited to a beta version in 11 markets.

The music streaming platform introduced this feature earlier this year in March. Select countries namely Germany, Poland, Brazil, and the Philippines. Kenya, the U.K., Italy, the Netherlands, Sweden, Colombia, Kenya, and Indonesia were the lucky few to receive the beta version of the music video feature. There are no details available as of now which list out 85 new countries that will receive this new feature. Although, it is probably safe to assume that the United States will be among the 85.

However, music videos on Spotify will only be exclusive to Spotify Premium users. Premium subscribers will be able to watch the video on both the desktop and mobile versions of Spotify. The users can effortlessly change between the music video and the audio with a toggle. When this feature was first introduced, users had to change from the audio to the video, it would restart the video from the beginning. With this new change, Spotify made the audio-video switch much more easier.

The music streaming giant is also introducing a new video indicator which will be viewable right next to the track. This makes it easier for users to spot which songs have the music video feature. In addition, the users can also view the videos in landscape mode for the full-screen experience.

Way before music videos on Spotify were introduced, the platform brought in video support for podcasts in 2020. Available on both the free and premium versions of the app, this feature allowed users to view video versions of podcasts. It serves as an additional feature so listeners can switch between the video and audio whenever they want.
