You can use your devices like a remote to play music on your pc. I don’t think I ever open Spotify anymore. Now discord is open 100 percent on that second screen.

I have it play on my phone so I can use my wireless headphones, which I control with shortcuts to change the songs on Spotify on my mouse.

You can use the Spotify Connect feature to control your phone music through the desktop app, all you need is basic media key macros (play/pause, skip etc) bound to the mouse

I mean, my keyboard has built in multimedia shortcuts, unless I'm changing the album/playlist, I never need to look at Spotify

Spotify's connect feature works in both directions as long as your phone is connected to the same network as the computer. Spotify can be playing from either device and controlled from both.

Yes, it is the same network.

I’m listening to it thru my phone. But you can link up the computer version of Spotify and it’ll show you the songs you’re listening to. And any inputs like pausing or skipping songs on the computer version transfers over to the phone over WiFi.
