Smallify Changelog

What's new in Smallify 1.0.0 Beta

Feb 1, 2019
  • What's New:
  • Actual authentication with Spotify, a generated access token is generated by the user and saved in the application settings
  • Notifications:
  • Any issues with executing commands will be posted as a Notification
  • Settings:
  • Authentication; get and save access tokens
  • General; always on top toggle
  • Notes:
  • Smallify isn't a registered Spotify device; an official Spotify application (Web, Mobile, Desktop... Etc) will need to be running
  • Access Tokens last 1 hour and will require manually refreshing:
  • Whilst still using the implicit grant flow for authentication, the process of generating and setting the access token has been taken into consideration and attempts have been made to make this as easy as possible

New in Smallify 1.0.0 Alpha (Jan 28, 2019)

  • After some Spotify changes, SpotifyLocalAPI stopped working and became deprecated
  • This pre-release will serve as a test, marking a point where Smallify has basic functionality it once had, now with actual authentication with Spotify
