My Question or Issue

Spotify version 8.5.57.1164 My phone was updated 5/6/2020 and since then it will play one song from a playlist then stop. I have to advance to the next song and click play.

I actually was able to resolve this by uninstalling the app and reinstalling it. Uninstalling removed all my downloads but now my songs play and I can get new downloads. I don't mess with my setting so I don't think that was an issue and I had plenty of room for data too. The version was the same before and after uninstalling and installing.

Thanks, twenger50. Tried the full reinstall and that did the trick!

I have the same issue on my G920V, Android version 7.0.

One additional note is that it keeps happening, so I have to reinstall at least once a day.

It seems to happen after I open the app and I get a popup saying something like, "That didn't work" with a button saying something like, "Try Again".
