Here, you will find some of the best apps to get Spotify widgets on Android.
SpotWidgetX
Spotify used to provide an official widget with the Spotify app on Android. Later, the company removed that widget from the app, leaving customers who were using it high and dry. Now, the official Spotify app today does come with a simple widget that looks a bit more modern. However, if you miss that old, sharp-cornered resizable widget, SpotWidgetX is the app for you.

Homescreen Playlists for Spotify
When you think of music widgets, you’re typically picturing something that shows you the current track and gives you controls such as play/pause, forward, and rewind. But that’s not all a music widget needs to be. Homescreen Playlists for Spotify allows you to put your favorite playlists on your home screen. Unlike some other Spotify widgets, this isn’t a shortcut that you have to tap to get to the playlist. Rather, your entire playlist is literally on your Android home screen. You can easily scroll through it and play any song without having to open Spotify app at all. Download: Homescreen Playlists for Spotify (Free)

Sign – Homescreen Widgets for Spotify
Sign is one of the best apps if you want custom Android widgets for Spotify. The Spotify Widget app for Android has various widgets and can display various information. That includes everything from songs, artists, charts, playlists, songs, and podcasts, to shows and more. The widgets support light and dark modes too. The app also lets you add a widget to the notification shade instead of, or in addition to, your home screen. This is done using the functionality of persistent notifications on Android. The app does require signing in with Spotify in order to fetch data. Download: Sign – Homescreen Widgets for Spotify (Free)

Music Widget Android 12
If you’re looking for something more modern and funky on your Android 12 home screen, you can try this widget for Spotify. Music Widget Android 12 clearly takes inspiration from the YouTube Music widget for Android 12. There is also a rounded square version which looks more iOS inspired. The free version only provides these two static widgets. However, you can purchase more widgets with additional features such as support for Material You theming.

Material Music Widget
While many love the new Material You design of Android, there definitely are many that prefer the older material design from 2014. If you’re one of those, you may like Material Music Widget for Spotify. Download: Material Music Widget (Freemium)

If you don’t want to be limited to Spotify, there are even more apps out on the Play Store that offers beautiful, high-quality widgets. Those are generally more generic and may or may not work as well with Spotify, however. One of the best apps for getting Spotify widgets on Android, however, is KWGT and its Pro version. You can get many kinds of widgets with it, including Android 12 widgets on any Android.
