In its 8.8.26 version, Spotify has included a new lock screen widget that will make it easier for Apple users to access the app with a tap.

To add the Spotify widget, the process is just the same as adding any other widget on the lock screen:

1. Long press the lock screen until your existing wallpapers appear.
2. Tap "Customize," then "Lock Screen."
3. Tap the widgets area below where the time appears.
4. Scroll through the widgets available, then select Spotify.

While this is a new feature, Spotify may be a little late for it since the latest iOS was released in September 2022, The Verge noted.

However, it was the first to come out with the widget than Apple's own music app, it added.
