What platform do you mean? The iOS app lets me select output device. It’s a little icon next to play/pause, kind of half computer screen half bookshelf speaker (monitor/monitor :)

I think I remember seeing this on desktop too but at that point why not use the OS sound mixer?

No, the app lets you select what system you're going to listen to Spotify on, not what audio device to use on your system.

Sometimes I just want music through my speakers while I have something else piping into my headset. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Android works pretty much the same way. I'm usually listening on my PC, but I don't try to control other devices from there so I can't remember if it's possible there.

this doesn't speak to that point but while we're talking android, the Spotify lite client is so nice for me and my 6 year old phone
