Updated to ios 8 today and Spotify crashes every time when trying to open. I have the latest version of Spotify as well. I have also reset my phone on top of deleting and reinstalling the app. Just wanted to put this up to get the issue noticed.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Huge issue for a lot of people, myself included. It seems at the moment they are brushing it under the rug.
More bad news for them...I'm this close to cancelling and going to Beats or something.
The problem consist in the fact they had reports of issue with iOS 8 since July (time of Beta3) and they hadn't fixed yet.
I find that very unprofessional for a tech company such as spotify: it's like a supermarket chaing having problem in distribuition.
Another one here...iOS 8, iPhone 5S, crashes every time. Reinstalled several times, no luck. Literally the ONLY app that didn't survive the update, ironically also the only one which charges a monthly fee. Unacceptable. If updating apps is so hard even with so much advance notice of OS updates, you're in the wrong business. It's been 48 hours, I'm waiting 24 more until I cancel my subscription.
Hey guys, we're aware of an issue affecting some users on iOS at the moment. We're hard at work on a fix and apologise for the inconvenience in the meantime.
We're going to keep everyone updated in this thread. So we're going to lock this thread to avoid any confusion.
Please do keep your reports coming in via the main thread. The more information we've got to work with, the better.
Thanks!
Hey guys!
@SpotifyCares on Twitter has suggested a work around that might solve the problem:
"If Spotify is crashing at startup on iOS 8, try changing your phone's Settings > Language & Region to another country, then change back."

Hey, just a fair warning if you guys updated to iOS 8, and have found your Spotify not opening or working properly, I found the solution. Go to settings, language and region, and change region to United Kingdom, then open spotify. change your region back to United States, kill spotify then reopen and problem solved. 🙂
Hello
I'm having the exact same issue. I've got an iPhone 5 running 7.1.2. I updated the app but have not updated to iOS 8 because of lack of space on my phone.
When I try and open the app it will load and then crash almost immediately. I've done a soft reset but I'm nervous of deleting and reinstalling in case my uploads will have disappeared (I live in the middle of nowehere and have shockingly slow broadband).
Same issue on Iphone 5. Tried to re-install spotify, but same issue exists.
Just found this on Twitter, hope it helps!
