#Start playing
Press play on any track in Discover, the catalog, a release page, or your library. The Player opens a Now Playing console with full transport controls and your live queue.
#Build and control your listening session
- Use Play next or Add to queue on a track, selected tracks, an album, or a playlist. Multi-track additions keep their displayed order and already-queued tracks are skipped.
- Shuffle plays every eligible queued track once before Repeat All begins another cycle. Tracks added during shuffle join the current cycle.
- Select the sound icon to mute; select it again to restore your previous volume. The slider stays synchronized.
- With a keyboard, use Tab to reach named playback controls and the position or volume sliders, then use the arrow keys to adjust a slider. A Skip to main content link appears when it receives focus, and the current navigation page and open playlist panel are announced to assistive technology.
- Open immersive mode from the Player for artwork, track details, controls, volume, and queue access. Use the visible control or Escape to leave it without losing your place.
- Signed-in listeners see Saved in green when the current track is already in their library. Select Saved to remove it again.
#Actions while you listen
- Save the track to your library or add it to a playlist.
- Inspect the track's stems to hear the individual parts.
- Check the AI-contribution badge without leaving the player.
- Open licensing actions when a stem is available to collect or license in the Marketplace.
- Support a show when the playing artist has a live campaign; the chip opens the campaign page so you can review the details before pledging.
