How to Listen to Spotify While Playing Roblox on Mobile/Computer

Part 1. How to Listen to Spotify While Playing Spotify Island on Roblox

Spotify announced a partnership with Roblox, which is the first streaming music platform to appear on Roblox. The Roblox Spotify integration provides a new space called Spotify Island. This virtual space allows you to play and connect through immersive hubs, explore, complete quests, discover exclusive merchandise, and, most importantly, listen to Spotify music within the Roblox environment.

Step 1. Open the Roblox application.

Step 2. Use the search bar at the top to find the Spotify Island experience.

Step 3. Click on the Spotify Island game and press the "Play" button.

Step 4. Once inside Spotify Island, you should see a "Play" button (often in the upper right corner) that allows you to start playing Spotify music. You can usually skip tracks as well.

Part 2. How to Play Spotify While Playing Roblox on iPhone/iPad/Android

Roblox doesn't have a direct, seamless integration with Spotify that plays within the game itself. That's to say, you need to use the Spotify app on your iPhone, iPad, Android, etc., to listen to music while playing other Roblox games.

Besides, on mobile devices, Roblox often pauses background audio when the app is in the foreground. You can use headphones with integrated play/pause buttons to help you play Spotify on Roblox. Let's see how to do this.

How to Listen to Spotify While Playing Roblox on iPhone/iPad/Android

Step 1. Open the Spotify app on your mobile device and find a song to start playing.

Step 2. Launch the Roblox app and join your game. Spotify will stop playing automatically in the background.

Step 3. Press the play button on your wired or wireless headphones to resume your Spotify playback. You should now be able to hear your Spotify music while playing Roblox.

Step 4. Use the volume controls on your device and potentially on your headphones to balance the game sound effects and your Spotify music.

Part 3. How to Play Roblox While Listening to Spotify on Computer

For those who primarily explore the vast realms of Roblox on their computers, the process of listening to Spotify simultaneously is often the most straightforward. This section will guide you through the simple steps to seamlessly integrate your Spotify playlists with your Roblox gaming sessions on your computer.

The Simplicity of Background Playback

If you're playing Roblox on a computer, the easiest method is simply to run Spotify in the background. Here's how:

Step 1. Launch the Spotify application on your computer and start playing your desired music or playlist.

Step 2. Open the Roblox application or access it through your web browser and join a game.

Step 3. Spotify will continue to play in the background while you're gaming on Roblox. You can control the volume of both Spotify and Roblox independently through your system's audio mixer to find the perfect balance.

Use Discord Music Bots

If you frequently use Discord while playing Roblox, you can use a music bot in a voice channel to play your Spotify tracks. This method requires a bit of setup:

Step 1. Ensure you have the Discord app installed on your device. If you don't have your own Discord server, create one.

Step 2. Invite a music bot (like Nekotina or others) to your server. You'll typically find these bots through their websites or public bot lists. Make sure the bot supports Spotify links.

Step 3. Connect to a voice channel on your server. Use the bot's command (like /play [Spotify song or playlist link]) in a text channel to start playing your Spotify music in the voice channel.

Part 4. How to Play Spotify and Roblox at the Same Time

Encountering the frustrating Spotify pause each time you launch Roblox can disrupt your immersive gaming experience. Fortunately, there's a clever workaround that leverages Roblox's ability to incorporate user-uploaded local music. Roblox permits users to upload their own audio files in either MP3 or Ogg format, with a size limit of 20 MB and a duration cap of 7 minutes per track. Once uploaded, this local music can play as background audio while you're engaged in your favorite Roblox games.

Therefore, the key to enjoying your Spotify library within Roblox lies in converting your Spotify tracks into compatible local files. This is where a dedicated tool like DRmare Spotify Music Converter comes into play. This software enables you to download and convert your Spotify music to widely supported formats such as MP3, FLAC, and WAV, all without requiring a Spotify Premium subscription.

You can preserve the lossless audio quality and even retain the original ID3 tags of your Spotify tracks. Once the conversion is complete, these downloaded Spotify songs become your local audio files, ready to be uploaded to Roblox and enjoyed as in-game background music. Furthermore, these converted files offer the added benefit of being playable across various devices and even other gaming consoles, extending your listening pleasure beyond just Roblox.

Part 5. Why Does My Spotify keep Pausing When I Play Roblox?

The pausing of your Spotify when you play Roblox is a common issue, particularly on mobile devices. Here's why it happens and what you can do about it:

Why Does Roblox Pause Spotify:

• One Audio Source at a Time: Most mobile operating systems are designed to prioritize the audio output of the app that is currently in the foreground. When you open Roblox, the game's audio system takes over, often interrupting any background audio like Spotify.
• Resource Management: Games like Roblox can be demanding on your device's resources (CPU, memory, etc.). To ensure smooth gameplay, the system might temporarily pause background apps, including Spotify, to allocate more resources to the game.

Workarounds to Keep Spotify Playing While Playing Roblox:

While there isn't a perfect, universal solution, here are several methods you can try:

1. Utilizing the "Shortcuts" App on iOS (iPhone/iPad):

You can create a "Play/Pause" shortcut in the iOS "Shortcuts" app and potentially link it to a "Back Tap" gesture for quick control without leaving the Roblox app.

2. Adjusting Roblox's Audio Settings:

While this won't directly stop Spotify from pausing, you can minimize audio conflicts by turning down or muting the in-game music and sound effects in Roblox's settings. You can usually access these settings via the escape key (on PC) or the gear icon within the Roblox app.

3. Playing Spotify on a Separate Device:

The most reliable way to ensure uninterrupted Spotify playback is to play your music on a different device (like a separate phone, tablet, or computer) while you play Roblox on your primary device.
