Or I can skip the phone and just tap the speaker to play my favorite Spotify station

Once you select your favorite stations, you actually press the heart button on the top of the speaker itself to toggle between stations, which is good too!Oh, and it is good-looking

I have a few favorite Internet radio stations I listen to, plus, I stream spotify to it

Love the airplay feature as well as the ability to store favorite "radio" stations.

I spent a little time trying to figure out how to access those favorited stations through the app, but it doesn't quite work that way

Immediately plugged it in and started enjoying the AirPlay, and Wifi compatibility - connected to my Wifi network - so easy!- and began live streaming my favorite radio stations and also my favorite play lists through Spotify

In addition to playing your own music collection or using it as a speaker for ipad movie watching, etc, you can listen to virtually any radio station, which is nice for listening to 'that cool station in Seattle' when you don't live there.

It also has a great "instant play" feature in which you can set a favorite playlist or station to play the moment you press play on the speaker (no phone required)

Love using it to listen to Spotify or my favorite radio stations from around the world

One evening, I had put a usb key with some lullabies for my baby in her room, after 10 minutes of playing lullabies with my baby almost sleeping, the speaker picked up the wifi signal and started playing the rock favorite radio station, waking and scaring the baby

I was then able to program the 5 favorite radio stations and start listening
