“Bringing these highly anticipated new features to Car Thing is part of Spotify’s ongoing commitment to building a truly frictionless experience for users across devices-whether in the car, at home, or on the go,” the company says in a blog post. There’s still no word on when Spotify will launch the handy CarThing outside the United States, but now it has rolled out to all users across the pond, we’d hope that a UK launch isn’t too far behind that. This feature is available wherever “Hey Spotify” is available.” For example, say “Hey Spotify, play cozy Sunday RnB,” and we’ll do our best to instantly create a personalised playlist from your request. “Simply ask for any genre, mood, or activity that describes the kind of music you want to hear. It’s also possible to “Use voice to get a personalised playlist for any mood,” Spotify says. The accessory was first made available for free as part of a limited invite-only release last April, and in October Spotify opened a waiting list for people to. Voice commands are also possible now, enabling users to queue songs to listen to next, or view your queue with “Hey Spotify” “When you have a track highlighted, press and keep holding the dial-one press will play, while pressing and holding will add to the queue,” Spotify says. There’s a touch command and the option to add to queue using the dial. Meanwhile, the update also includes the ability to add additional songs and podcasts to the queue.

You can also tap the screen to return to Spotify at any time. So, if you like to listen to podcasts on Overcast while driving, you’ll be able to play and control that content from the touchscreen.
