Describe the Bug

When attempting to log in to Spotify using a Google account inside SimpMusic, the login flow fails and returns a Google error page instead of completing authentication.

Google blocks the authentication request and shows the following error:

• Error 403: disallowed_useragent
• "Spotify’s request does not comply with Google’s policies"
• Mentions Google’s "Use secure browsers" policy

Google may be blocking the embedded WebView or in-app browser used during Spotify authentication. It may require using a secure external browser or a Custom Tab instead of the current login method.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open SimpMusic
2. Choose Spotify login
3. Select Google login flow
4. Attempt to sign in with a Google account
5. Observe the Google error page

Expected Behavior

Users should be able to sign in to Spotify with their Google-linked Spotify account normally.
