Verizon Starting to Throttle Spotify???

suess999 — Wed, 04 Mar 2015 17:02:11 GMT

Anyone else noticing a slowdown of Spotify on Verizon 4GLTE?

I have samsung Galaxy S4 and have absolutely no data issues, except I have noticed that the Spotify App, and only the Spotify App performance has degraded as of late. Not all album art loads, the browse button is terribly slow, and searches are slow. It will take a long time for music to start playing or switch to a different category. Also I'm starting to get more skips while music is playing.

I'm using the default settings in the app and normal music quality etc.

The only thing I can think of is that Verizon is starting to performance throttle Spotify.

Spotify works great on all my other internet connected devices that are not using Verizon 4GLTE.

Thanks!

Odd. Are you using the latest version of the app?
