Hi there, Great package. Thanks for all your work.

The example doesn't work in Safari on a Mac or on iOS for me. The track immediately pauses? Not sure if this is a known issue with the SDK or not.

I didn't reproduce the problem in my environment.

Perhaps you are not a Spotify Premium member? WebPlaybackSDK requires a premium membership.

Alternatively, playback in Safari has some limitations (no background playback, etc.)

To work around the background playback you have to call activateElement on the spotify player during an UI interaction (like button press): https://developer.spotify.com/documentation/web-playback-sdk/reference#spotifyplayeractivateelement

Maybe this should also be included in the samples in the readme
