[Android] Run Spotify in Background Alert

Raja_B — Sat, 30 Jan 2021 13:54:03 GMT

Hello,

I run Spotify on my Galaxy S10 (Android). Every few days I get an alert saying I have not allowed Spotify to run in the background. If I tap on the alert, it goes to the Spotify App settings, but I cannot find anything related to background activity. This pop-up is really annoying! Would most appreciate any help please! Thanks!

I explored further. My Android version is the latest, version 11. I tapped on the Settings (gear) icon, went to Apps, tapped on Spotify. There I tapped on Battery, and turned on "Allow Background Activity." (it was not turned on). Is this the solution? I hope so! I guess I'll find out in the next day or two! And oh, I also tapped on "Mobile data," and allowed both "Allow background data usage" and "Allow data usage while Data Saver Is On." Thanks!
