Music keeps playing when I disconnect from Bluetooth

HPie — Tue, 17 Dec 2024 15:04:26 GMT

During the last few days whenever I disconnect my phone from Bluetooth Spotify keeps playing the music. Using a Motorola Moto G54, I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app but this hasn't worked.

Hey there,

Thank you for reaching out to the Community and welcome.

To start investigating this, we understand you’ve already tried reinstalling the app, but to be sure that we're on the same page - did you use the steps for a clean reinstall mentioned in this article? If not, give it a try to see if it makes any difference.

Also, does this happen with all the Bluetooth devices you've tried? If you don't have another one, you can borrow one from a friend or a family member just to test it out.

Lastly, include in your next response the OS version of your device, along with the Spotify version you're currently running to continue investigating the case.

We'll be on the lookout for your response.

I've recently faced this annoying problem.

I using spotify via vehicle bluetooth .
When the car's engine stop, and bluetooth disconnection, Spotify keeps playing on my phone.

When Bluetooth disconnection , the playback should stop/pause.
Not only me, everyone don't want spotify keep play music in pocket.

I've looked up all the community's questions to fix this and this annoying issue has not been fixed since 9 years.

It seems meaningless to talk about a version of your device or a version of Spotify.
Is Spotify trying to solve this problem?
Do you really want to solve this problem?

Hello. I have the same problem on my Samsung S24 Ultra. I tried reinstall, clean cache, android auto etc. I use simple bluetooth connection and the music stops only when I have Spotify app opened. If my phone is locked or on some other app the music keeps playing after bluetooth disconects.

Hey @mcv2500,

Thanks for letting us know! You've covered some good initial troubleshooting steps here 🙂

Could you share with us what the phone's OS version is, along with your Spotify app version?
Does this happen only when connecting to the car via Bluetooth or with any Bluetooth device and has this behaviour begun after a recent app/ OS update or has this always been the case on your end?

We'll be on the lookout for your reply.
