We're big fans of Spotify's streaming music service, and indeed Apple's iPhone, so it's no surprise the Spotify app for iPhone went down a treat at whathifi.com HQ.

So good news today as Spotify announced the latest update to the app. New features include:

- Share tracks and playlists via SMS (iOS 4 only) 

- Spotify Twitter posts added to the News Feed

- New high-resolution icon for iPhone 4

- Pressing the “prev” button skips to the start of a track, even if you're playing the first track

- The “restore” message no longer appears when in airplane mod

- Fixed a crash some users experienced with the What's New tab

- Fixed an issue with inbox not updating with new tracks in certain case

 

Head to the App Store to download the free update.

As you say, syncing playlists when you have wifi and then listening in offline mode is a good bet. If not, you will be streaming tracks to your iPhone at 160kbps over 3G.

Do you know how much impact on your bandwidth there is through using Spotify?  I have a 1GB data allowance through Vodafone.  Obviously it'll work on wi-fi.
