Opera Just Made Listening to Spotify Even Better (and Might Give You Free Premium!)
Did you know that your Opera browser is about to become your new favourite music hub? Originally, back in 2024, Opera introduced a nifty feature that allowed users to pin Spotify to their browser’s sidebar, putting their favourite tunes just a click away. Since then, the popular browser has further upped the ante with a sleek and user-friendly upgrade to its integrated Spotify in Music Player.
The latest Opera update brings some seriously cool enhancements to the Spotify experience. Imagine detaching your music player and positioning it exactly where you want it on your screen, now you can! This movable player ensures your music controls are always within reach without obstructing your browsing.
But wait, there’s more! A brand-new floating mini-player has been introduced, offering effortless control over your music. You can now easily pause, play, skip tracks, and switch between your favourite songs without even opening the main Spotify app.
And for those moments when you stumble upon a webpage blasting audio, Opera has you covered. The integrated Spotify player will now automatically mute when other audio sources start playing and seamlessly resume once the webpage audio stops. Talk about a smooth listening experience!
Free Spotify Premium? Yes, Please!
Here’s a deal that might just make your day even better. Opera is currently offering a fantastic opportunity for new Spotify Premium users: a whopping three months of free access! To be eligible for this trial, you need to be a first-time Spotify Premium subscriber and reside in one of the following countries: Argentina, Brazil, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, the UK, the US, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, Turkey, or Vietnam.
Claiming this offer is a breeze. Simply open the Opera Music Player from the sidebar and look for the special offer button. Clicking it will redirect you to the Spotify page, where the magic happens – the code will be automatically applied.
However, don’t delay! This offer is only valid for redemption until November 1, 2026, and can only be used once per person. After your three-month free trial ends, you’ll have the option to either cancel your subscription or continue enjoying the perks of Spotify Premium for a monthly fee (starting at $11.99 for the individual plan).
Get the Latest Opera for the Best Experience
This enhanced Spotify mini player is designed to work seamlessly on Linux, MacOS, and Windows operating systems. To take advantage of all these new features, make sure you’ve downloaded the very latest version of the Opera browser. The necessary flags for the mini player (#miniplayer-in-toolbar and #miniplayer-redesign-2) are already enabled in the newest version, so you can start enjoying a superior Spotify experience right away.
So, if you’re an Opera user and a music lover, this update is definitely something to cheer about. Enjoy a more integrated, user-friendly Spotify experience and potentially snag three months of Premium for free!
