We already gave you most of the details on Spotify’s redesigned Android app in April when the company released a preview detailing all the new features. Today, Spotify is finally releasing the app that brings a number of features previously only available to iOS users. It also includes support for Android 4.0 devices.

The free app is already available through Google Play, and, as always, Spotify offers a 48-hour trial that can extend to 30 days. Below is a full list of features that you will find in the overhauled app:

Available now on Google Play, features include:

• Totally new app with full support for Android 4.0
