Hey @izhr-d59n_728, welcome to the Community!

It sounds like you need to update your device's operating system. You can check for available firmware updates by going to Settings > About Device > Update > Check for updates.

Hope that helps.

don't think so. the os i use is android 7.1 resurrection remix. it's up to date. anyone else have any suggestions?

I'm also having this issue on my Samsung Galaxy A3. I get the same message even though my android version is 8.0.0. It also feels like Spotify has gotten a lot slower on my device since this started happening. Is there fix?

Best,

Victor

the good news is that this is probably just a bug. guess im going to start ignoring these annoyances immediately. that is, until someone at spotify responds with some kind of reasonable explanation of why it's not a bug.
