When it comes to receiving major updates from apps, the iPhone almost always beats Android rivals to the punch. For example, take WhatsApp fingerprint lock, it was released on iOS months before it hit Android. But that was not the case when Spotify introduced Sleep Timer a few months ago. While the music-streaming app rolled out the feature on Android devices, it kept iOS users waiting in the wing. After several months of delay, the music app has finally broken the jinx. And guess what, I’m really excited to use Spotify’s sleep timer on the iPhone. If it’s also your thing, let’s get started with this feature right away!
First things first, Spotify has just released Sleep Timer for iOS and iPadOS. Though it’s available worldwide, it may take some time for the update to reach everywhere. So, don’t be surprised if you don’t get the option to use it on your device. To update Spotify, head over to App Store on your iPhone or iPad > Today tab > Profile > Available Updates. Now, find Spotify and update it as usual.
- Next, start playing your favorite music. After that, open the Now Playing screen while listening to the song.

As I like to listen to some melodious songs before closing the eyes, I had been waiting for this feature to arrive sooner than later. On the competition front, Spotify (as of September 2019, 248 million total users) is head and shoulders above rivals like Apple Music. While Apple’s music streaming app is on track to overtake Spotify in the US, the latter has a dominating presence globally. By the way, which is your favorite music app and why?
