At the moment, Spotify says its catalog of music videos is limited. However, it contains videos from popular globally-known artists like Ed Sheeran, Doja Cat, and Ice Spice. It also has music videos from local artists, like Aluna and Asake, as well.
If you’re in one of the selected regions, you’ll be able to turn the feature on by hitting the “Switch to Video” toggle on supported music tracks. And to return to background music, you just need to press “Switch to Audio.”
You don’t need to feel left out if you don’t live in one of these countries, as Spotify says it hopes to expand the program to more areas in the future. The company also plans to expand its collection of music videos over time.
