Wait what, how does this work? Reverse engineering? Or is it one of those things that finds the song you’re playing on actual Spotify on YouTube?

My understanding is that it uses the Spotify API (e.g., for track information, lyrics, playlists) but streams the actual audio from YouTube.

Yeah, looks like it just finds the song on YouTube according to this

Using a Spotify account on Spotube with a Premium subscription will do nothing more than a non-Premium account, songs are streamed from YouTube.

Interesting, I had no idea 3P clients for Spotify was possible. I dig the UI. Will this still give me all my Spotify playlists (incl. Recommended ones from Spotify like daily mix etc)?

This basically combines Spotify playlists, lyrics, and metadata with the actual audio files from YouTube. It seems pretty clever to me. I have Spotify Premium so it isn’t as relevant to me but it seems like a great alternative for folks who don’t.
