Samsung TV App - TV model #QN75QN90BAFXZC

Spotify randomly stopped working on my brand new Samsung TV. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, logging out and back in, hard reset of TV and WiFi. My TV firmare, iPhone, iOS Spotify, and Samsung TV Spotify are all up-to-date.

I press play on a song, and 2 seconds in (no audio) it skips to another song, then returns to the home menu, then skips back to the playlist screen, then skips to another song, then skips to another song, jumps back to home menu, and so on. Repeating. It only glitches when I press play. If there is nothing "playing" the app works perfectly. Only when I try to play something does it start glitching out.

I've recorded this glitch and can upload a video.

Hi there,

Thanks for posting in the Community and welcome. We appreciate all the troubleshooting steps you've tried so far.

To begin with, we recommend trying to manually restart the TV. This is a simple process, but can sometimes help. You'll need to unplug your TV's power cord from the wall outlet and then wait around 2 minutes. Then plug your TV back and turn it on. Finally, press the Home button and try using Spotify again.

If that doesn't help, could you let us know if this also happens when you play music from your phone to the TV using Spotify Connect? You can also check with a different Spotify account. If you don't have one, it can be a family member or a friend's account.

On another note, send over the video you mentioned in your next reply. We'll take a look.

We'll be here!

Hi,

I have the same problem on mu SAMSUNG TV, and I think I have tried everything- reconnect to my user/other user, reinstall the app, unplug the TV, remote the app with my phone, and also tried to connet the app from the streamer.

The only way that works for me is to screen miroring my phone on the TV, but thats not fixs the problem with the app.

Hoping you could help me,

Thanks a lot!

it's not just Samsung TVs. My chromecast is doing the same, and there's multiple comments in the chromecast play store reporting the same thing. the app is completely unusable.
