Spotify, Apple may join hands to let iPhone users to play songs using Siri

Swedish music streaming service Spotify is reportedly in a truce with Apple to let iPhone users tell voice assistant Siri to play songs, playlists and albums.

According to a report in The Information on Wednesday, the talks come amid a growing anti-trust battle between the two companies.

Google’s Assistant and Amazon Alexa work with Spotify but Siri does not.

Swedish music streaming app Spotify now has 232 million monthly active users (MAUs) globally, a 29 per cent increase year-on-year (YoY), along with 108 million premium subscribers which is also 31 per cent (YoY) growth.

In comparison, Apple Music last reported 60 million paid subscribers in June.
