How to Get Your Spotify Client ID

Complete these steps once — takes about 2 minutes.

1
Open the Spotify Developer Dashboard

Go to developer.spotify.com/dashboard and log in with your Spotify account. Then tap Create app in the top-right corner.

💡 Tip: If you can't see the Create app button, try rotating your phone to landscape mode — the button can be hidden off-screen in portrait on some devices.

In the Redirect URIs field, enter the URL shown below exactly, then tap Add:

Copy your Client ID

After saving, you'll be taken to your app's Basic Information page. Your Client ID is the 32-character code shown at the top. Tap the copy icon next to it.

Note: You do not need the Client Secret. True Shuffle uses a secure PKCE flow that only requires the Client ID — your credentials never leave your device.
4
Paste it into True Shuffle

Go back to True Shuffle, paste your Client ID into the field, and tap Save & Continue. You'll only need to do this once.

Your Client ID is stored only in this browser and is never sent anywhere except directly to Spotify's servers when you log in.
