Google’s Clock app can now wake you up with Spotify songs

Bored of waking up to chimes, birdsong or that one track you’ve carried on your phone over the years? Own an Android smartphone? If the answer to both is ‘yes’, you’ll be pleased to know you now have the choice of over 35 million songs to rouse you.

Spotify and Google have partnered to allow both free and Premium Spotify users (with Android handsets) to set their alarms with music from Spotify’s catalogue.

Once you turn off the alarm you’ll have the option to continue playback, too.
