Hi there @Deems17,

Thanks for reaching out via the Community and for performing some troubleshooting.

Did you by any chance notice if the issue occurred after something specific?

Since a reinstall didn't work, consider testing with a different network connection (mobile data shared via hotspot/Wi-Fi).

Sometimes the issue could be on Spotify's server side, blocking the specific login token. In this case, go to your Account Page then scroll down to Security and privacy > Sign out everywhere for a refresh. After this, log in only on your mobile device.

Lastly, since this is happening on a Samsung phone, make sure to also disable any battery optimization or restriction settings. Go to Settings > Apps > Spotify > Battery and change the setting from Optimized or Restricted to Unrestricted.

Let us know how it goes!
