Why does my Spotify link open in the browser instead of the app?

Instagram, TikTok and Facebook open links in their own browser, not in Spotify. Your fan gets a web player where they aren’t signed in, so saving the song or following you means logging in first. Most people don’t. OpenUp checks whether they’re on iPhone or Android and opens the Spotify app instead.

How do I copy my Spotify link?

On your phone, tap the three dots next to the song, album, playlist, artist or podcast, then Share, then Copy link. On a computer, right-click it (or click the three dots), then Share, then Copy Link. OpenUp then opens that link in the Spotify app on iPhone and Android.

Can I use it in an Instagram story?

Yes. Add your OpenUp link with the link sticker. Fans who tap it go to the Spotify app, not the browser.

What if a fan doesn’t have Spotify?

The link opens Spotify’s web player in their browser.

Does it work with pre-save links?

No. OpenUp opens songs, albums, artists, playlists and podcasts that are already on Spotify. A pre-save page from DistroKid or another distributor is a website, not a Spotify link.

Is it free?

Yes. The free plan includes 5 links and 1,000 clicks per link each month.
