Spotify's "Sorry, I could not find this app"

Question

As in the API documentation, I have created a ~/Spotify/myapp/index.html (on a Mac) but when loading spotify:app:myapp from the search bar in Spotify (preview version that supports apps) I get a "Sorry, I could not find this app" message.

What am I missing (this should be all for a "Hello World" according to the docs, right? Is there a way I can debug this to better understand the problem?

Answer 1

It sounds like you did not apply for being a developer at Spotify. Do you have a menu item called Develop and have the ability to right-click inside given apps?

If not, you need to have developer capabilities activated by Spotify. You can do so on their Site. Your account will probably not be activated instantly.

Answer 2

I just made a video explaining how to solve this.

Basically you need to go to the Spotify.app -> Contents -> Resources -> cef_views ; and drop your stuff in there.
