Energy saving stops Spotify (WIN 10)

mueckeflo — Thu, 31 Aug 2017 19:24:45 GMT

I'm using a Win 10 Tablet and want to listen to music when I go to bed. Unfortunately this is not possible with the current Spotify-App, as Spotify stops playing music as soon as the screen is turned off by the energy saving setup.

And no, it's not related to my energy settings since Groove Music does play music in energy saving mode, with exactly the same settings, on exactly the same tablet.

Is there a hidden option or App-AddOn in can use to achive what I want? Or do I need to switch to Groove in the end...?

Hi @mueckeflo,

After a bit of digging it appears to be an issue with the Spotify API and windows 10. Have you tried the webplayer?

It's not really the same though but I've also found this idea you can add kudos too so the developers can have a look at it.

thanks! Voted for the idea. Hoping that Spotify fixes that soon....
