I would like to play a song on my phone from Spotify in a flow. The trigger is a motion sensor and I would like a specific ‘emergency song’ to play. However, this only works if Spotify is already open on the phone. Sometimes I obviously don’t have Spotify open. How can the flow ensure that Spotify ‘turns on’?
