Spotify is celebrating LGBTQ Pride Month with a colorful volume control
Spotify is celebrating LGBT Pride Month with a cute little easter egg.
The streaming service announced today that it's adding a small, colorful feature to the volume bar in celebration of LGBTQ Pride Month. On the desktop app for PCs and Macs, the volume bar will turn into a rainbow gradient instead of the traditional green bar when you turn it up to max volume.
Even better, it will include a Pride-themed celebratory message. Above the volume rocker, short phrases in the same color will appear such as "Loud and Proud" and "Live At Full Volume."
The easter egg will be available for the entire month of June in the Pride Hub, which is a new curated section of the app. This area will include other fun additions such as a collection of Pride Month playlists.
For the past few years, Spotify has supported the LGBTQ community with curated playlists and social media campaigns. This easter egg is part of the new Always Turn It Up campaign, and continues this support.
This is not the first easter egg from Spotify and they tend to not add new features, but rather provide a quick redesign to controls. You might recall that for Rouge One, Spotify turned the play scroll into a lightsaber when listening to music from the films.
This new easter egg is now live in Spotify and will be active for the entire month of June. You can check it out in the Pride Hub, just be sure you have the newest version of the app.
