Android playstatechanged

So im trying to figure out when user pauses a song in spotify/android native player. I have 

        iF.addAction("com.spotify.music.playstatechanged");
        iF.addAction("com.android.music.playstatechanged");

in my intent filter and im trying to save boolean value of playing inside broadcast receiver like this 

        isPlaying = intent.getBooleanExtra("playing", true);

Problem here is that pausing a song does absolutely nothing to the variable isPlaying. Does playstatechanged not broadcast or what seems to be the problem here?

Solution

  • According to this tutorial taken from Spotify's dev portal, the action of the intent is com.spotify.music.playbackstatechanged.
