A user can also add songs or podcasts to the queue using four different ways. He or she can do that via touch, the dial, voice command and view the queue. To activate the touch mode, one will have to tap the ‘Add to queue’ icon next to a track in the playlist. With the dial feature, one will have to press and keep holding the dial to play or add the highlighted song or podcast to the queue. Through the Voice Command, one will be able to just queue whatever he or she likes just by saying “ Hey Spotify, queue ABC song." To view the queue, the user will have to state, “Hey Spotify, open my queue" or he or she can press and keep holding the dial when in the ‘now playing’ view.

The Voice Command facility will also help the driver to get a personalised playlist suiting his or her mood. One can also ask for any genre, activity or mood song to play of their wish.
