The new pictures match up with photographs that Spotify had submitted to the FCC. Images of the device, found in the Spotify iOS app's code by MacRumors contributor Steve Moser, suggest that the Car Thing will look more like a car infotainment screen: it includes a large knob on the right of a color screen, and four physical buttons along the top. While the Car Thing was previously billed as a device designed to help Spotify better understand users' listening habits while on the go, the continued development of the in-car gadget and its revamped design indicates there could be more.

However, the exact nature of Spotify's Car Thing remains a mystery. The device, which is thought to be a voice-controlled music and podcasting gadget, closely resembles a miniature infotainment screen, featuring a handful of physical controls alongside a color display. Something to look forward to: Images of Spotify's curious in-car gadget, known colloquially as the "Car Thing," have been found hidden within the code of the Spotify iOS app.
