Requested song

ch1cken5 — Tue, 30 Nov 2021 20:10:28 GMT

Has something changed on Spotify recently? I subscribe to Spotify Premium and mainly stream through my Google Home Hub. Previously when I have requested a particular song, it has been played, and this then leads onto other songs being played in that particular genre. I've noticed this last week though that after playing my requested song nothing else happens and I have to request another song. I know I could ask for a playlist, but I like seeing where things take me. Can't understand what has changed?

Hey there @ch1cken5,

Thanks for posting and welcome to the Community!

Seems you like to enjoy the Autoplay feature of the app. Yo can check out if you haven't disabled this feature from your Settings menu on some of your devices - here's how.

If this doesn't help, then we'd like you to give us more info on your current set up, as well as the exact version numbers of the apps you have on.

Hope this helps. Let us know how you get on.

You're absolutely right, the Autoplay feature had been disabled - I have switched it back on again. However the songs still don't play without me asking for them. Is there anything else I need to do after enabling Autoplay again? As I said before I usually stream through my Google Home Hub, so wasn't sure where the issue was.

Hey @ch1cken5,

Thanks for your reply.

In this case, try unlinking your Spotify and Google Home accounts > restarting your Google Home device > restarting your router > linking your accounts again with these steps.

Keep us posted on how it goes.
