My Question or Issue

Recently I noticed an issue with my spotify widget on the locked screen not having a rewind button. It is replaced by the "like" button instead. This happens in the playlist as well as random shuffle albums, recommended etc.

Resetting cache works for a short period, until (whatever setting) is synced or downloaded and then it starts again. Removing the app completely helps but with the same effect. in about 2 hours the back button is gone.

Ok, thanks; as of few hours ago I noticed it was back to normal. If it's part of canary tests, I'd argue they are pretty disruptive to end users.
