Spotube is an open-source music streaming platform that functions as a lightweight alternative to the official Spotify client[1]. The app allows users to stream music without requiring a Spotify Premium subscription.
Key features include:
- Ad-free listening using public Spotify and YouTube Music APIs
- Cross-platform support for mobile and desktop
- Downloadable tracks for offline listening
- Time-synced lyrics
- Anonymous/guest login
- No telemetry or user data collection
- Native performance without using Electron
A notable limitation is that Spotube can sometimes play mismatched tracks, particularly for less popular songs. Users have reported cases where the app plays incorrect versions of songs from YouTube when the original Spotify track isn’t found[2].
The app is available through:
Is it only for me, or the login does not work? I get error 404 every time i try.
This has been the case for a few months now, rather disingeous of op to post this when it’s a known problem and makes the app completely unusuable.
It’s a known issue. They have to find a way around Spotifys API which… doesn’t seem to be going well.
Ah, makes sense now. I’ll keep it installed just in case they found a workaround.

It seems they have already fixed it, but I haven’t tried the new update since it isn’t on F-Droid yet
Me too
