Opera is integrating a Player feature on its desktop browser that will give users quick access to music streaming platforms like Apple Music, Spotify, and YouTube Music. The new Player feature can be accessed in the browser’s sidebar, below the Messengers section. Playback can be controlled with standard playback buttons on the keyboard or by hovering over the Player icon in the sidebar, where a mini playback control menu will appear. Users can remain logged in to all three music streaming platforms and alternate between them.
The Player in Opera will pause whenever you start streaming an audio file or a video in a tab, and automatically resume music playback once it’s over. Users will be able to stream songs from Apple Music, Spotify, and YouTube Music, and browse without having to juggle tabs, apps, or devices. If you don’t want this feature to appear on your Opera sidebar, you can switch it off in the browser settings.
