The news in this case is that as of today Android users can access Spotify playlists, podcasts, and more just by touching this button which is added in the latest versions of UE speakers. The power and quality in general lines of these speakers is undoubtedly one of the strengths but the arrival of the BOOM 3 and MEGABOOM 3 version added the Magic Button that now allows you to get a little more out of the speaker.
From Android version 5.0 onwards
In this case, one of the requirements to be able to use this function on our Android device is none other than having it updated to an Android version 5.0 or higher, so it is assumed that almost all devices will be able to enjoy this new characteristic. We can start and control Spotify easily whether we're listening to songs on the mountain or partying on a rooftop, Ultimate Ears makes it easier than ever to access our favorite songs and control your rhythm. These are some of the words of the Ultimate Ears CEO Charlotte Johs at the time of making this news public:
The BOOM 3 and MEGABOOM 3 speakers have changed the way we listen to music with the convenience and easy integration of the Magic Button. We are constantly adding new features to our premium speaker category, and the BOOM 3 and MEGABOOM 3 keep getting even better by adding Spotify support on Android devices.
As we already explained a few months ago in the review we did of the product in Actualidad Gadget, the new BOOM 3 and MEGABOOM 3 added a button called Magic Button that allowed the user to play, pause and skip tracks directly from the speakers, without having to look for your phone in your pocket or in another room. Now users of devices with the Android operating system and an account with the music streaming service, Spotify, also have the option to access their music with just long press the button and thus start your favorite playlists, albums, songs and podcasts, and can even skip through playlists by pressing again.
The only requirement to be able to use this service in addition to having a version of Android 5 or higher on your mobile device and obviously having an account on the Spotify streaming music service is to do so from the free BOOM and MEGABOOM mobile application from Ultimate Ears. This app can be downloaded from the Google Play store and from the App Store at no cost and thus begin to enjoy all the options it offers.
