How to use Spotube on Mac/Widnows/iOS/Ansroid[2024 Complete Guide]

Since crackdown of xManager, many people started using Spotube. Spotube is an open source, cross-platform Spotify client that allows you to get Spotify premium features for free. Once connected with your Spotify account, it reads your Spotify playlist and streams the songs from YouTube, Piped.video or JioSaavn as an audio source although a little slow as loading songs takes time. It has many of the Spotify Premium features and is compatible with Mac/Windows/Linux/iOS/Android. You can stream and download music without any ads or subscriptions.

The downside of Spotube is that it plays and downloads YouTube versions of songs smoothly, which means that some songs are slightly different from the Spotify version, such as being shorter or having an intro like some music videos. The app itself runs quite slowly and takes much longer to load music than Spotify. It works, but there are quite a few issues. Here we will show you how to use Spotube as Spotify mod alternative and a better way to download Spotify music without premium.
