### Snap / Nix:

Spotify installations using Snap require the included `spotx-snap.sh` helper. Download the repo so `spotx-snap.sh` and `spotx.sh` remain in the same directory:
```
git clone https://github.com/SpotX-Official/SpotX-Bash.git
cd SpotX-Bash
bash spotx-snap.sh
```
Run `bash spotx-snap.sh --help` for additional Snap options or see the [FAQ](https://github.com/SpotX-Official/SpotX-Bash/wiki/SpotX%E2%80%90Bash-FAQ#is-the-snap-version-of-spotify-supported).

Nix users on x86_64 Linux or Apple Silicon macOS should use [SpotX-Nix](https://github.com/SpotX-Official/SpotX-Nix), which applies SpotX-Bash while building the Spotify package without modifying the Nix store. It supports NixOS, nix-darwin, Home Manager, and configurations with or wit
