Spotify's iOS app is getting an upgrade for audiobook fans in the US to purchase audiobooks and 'Top Up' hours directly within the app via external links.
The update, if approved by Apple, will allow non-Premium users to buy individual audiobooks and Premium subscribers to purchase 'Top Up' hours for audiobook listening.
Spotify offers 15 free monthly hours of audiobook streaming for Premium users, and this update aims to provide access to more audiobooks in their library.
The change comes after Apple's ruling to stop taking commission from purchases made via external links, giving Spotify the opportunity to increase revenue from App Store purchases.
