Prerequisite Setup

Before streaming, ensure your Meta (Facebook) Portal is properly set up. If you are using a new or recently reset device, follow these quick steps:

First, plug in your Portal, connect to a stable Wi-Fi network, and let the device automatically download any pending software updates. Next, link your active Facebook or WhatsApp account to unlock the home screen.

Once set up, navigate to the “Apps” grid to locate the Spotify app for online streaming. If you prefer offline playback without an internet connection, we will explain how to use AudFun Spotify Music Converter later in this guide. For now, let’s focus on the official online methods.

Part 1. How to Use Spotify on Facebook Portal Officially

Facebook Portal has partnered with Spotify and other music services, allowing you to play music directly from their libraries. After testing, we have collected the following three official ways to connect Spotify to your Portal.

Via the Spotify Facebook Portal App

Facebook Portal comes with a pre-installed Spotify app that allows users to listen to music directly. Therefore, you can search Spotify on Facebook Portal and activate it for playing online.

Step 1. On the home screen of your Portal, click on the ‘Apps‘ icon to open the Portal Apps window.

Step 2. Under the ‘Apps‘ pane, scroll down to locate the Spotify app. Tap on the ‘Add‘ or ‘Get‘ button to install the Spotify app for Meta Portal.

Step 3. Once installed, press the ‘Open‘ tab to launch the Spotify app on the display, then click on ‘Connect Spotify‘ on the Portal. You may need to visit spotify.com/pair on your phone or computer to confirm the login for your Portal.

Step 4. On the Spotify login screen of the Portal, enter your email and password to sign in to your Spotify account. Afterward, you can browse and stream songs directly.

Note: As an Alexa-enabled device, Facebook Portal empowers you to control Spotify music playback hands-free. Before using voice commands, go to Settings > Accounts on the Portal, tap ‘Amazon Alexa‘ > ‘Connect‘, and enter the provided code at amazon.com/code on your phone.

Once Alexa is set up, you can use specific voice commands to control your playback. Try saying:

• “Alexa, play my Discover Weekly on Spotify.”
• “Alexa, skip this track.”
• “Hey Portal, pause the music.”

Via Spotify Connect

Compatible with Spotify Connet, Meta Portal supports controlling Spotify music playback remotely with Spotify Connect through the Spotify mobile app.

Step 1. On the Spotify mobile app, click on the ‘Available Device‘ icon on the Now Playing bar.

Step 2. From the Spotify Connect device list, choose and connect your Facebook Portal to cast playing music to the display.

Via Bluetooth

The Meta Portal is also regarded as a Bluetooth speaker, which means you can connect Spotify to the touchscreen Display through the same Bluetooth. Here is the stepwise guide:

Step 1. Please enable the Bluetooth settings on your phone.

Step 2. Go back to the Portal and open the Settings app on the home screen. Then choose ‘General‘ from the left sidebar and click on the ‘Bluetooth‘ tab.

Step 3. Toggle on the Bluetooth button > the lower ‘Pair Device‘ tab and then click on ‘Available Devices‘.

Step 4. Select your mobile phone from those Bluetooth available devices to pair the phone with your Portal.
