My shuffle player stopped working properly. When I delete or move songs in the queue, they pop back up again and I don't know why. It's as if I can't manage the song queue anymore. What can I do? Thanks!!

Hi there @Clelia93

welcome to the community !

Let's start with a basic clean reinstall of the app following the steps provided on this Spotify answer.

Let me know how it goes 🙂

I had the same problem and a clean reinstall seems to have solved it for now

Hey @BlackOpal9 and @Clelia93, Did you also solve this...

Hey @Clelia93,

Did you also solve this by following @OneByBoo's suggestion like @Baneposting?

@BlackOpal9, as a heads-up, what @OneByBoo suggested is a more thorough process than deleting the app on your iPhone and MacBook and then quickly reinstalling it. Just to confirm, did you give that suggestion a try?

Let us know and we'll be happy to help further or with anything else if needed 🙂

I can’t figure out how to do that in iOS 13

Cannot alter play queue when shuffling

My Question or Issue

When I am shuffling my liked songs, any changes I make to the "next up" shuffled play queue are reverted at some point and it plays in the original order.

It's slightly different for Android and PC, but generally it happens before the next song plays. It happens the same way whether I rearrange songs or remove them from the queue.

Adding to queue and editing the "next in queue" list appears to work correctly.

Seems to be happening both on my Android device as well as desktop Windows app.

Probably about 90% of my playtime on Spotify is in this use case scenario, so it's quite frustrating when it doesn't work as it has been for years.

My Question or Issue

When I remove a song(s) from my queue (i.e. songs that are upcoming in my playlist), they get removed, but after about 10-15 seconds they appear again in my queue. However, songs that I manually add to my queue aren't having this issue

That’s really strange have you tried logging out and back in?

I’ve been having the same issue for around a week on my iPhone and those fixes haven’t worked for me

This issue is also occuring for me.

This appears to be a glitch in the software and I hope Spotify are fixing this.

I have uninstalled the player from my PC and re-installed and it has made no difference.

After editing my play queue, the play queue just restores itself to its original state within a few seconds.

Additionally I have tried the situation on my Samsung Galaxy Note 9, and it is also happening on that, before and after the re-install of the app.

There is one song that constantly reappears inside my queue, randomly. Since I once removed it manually from my queue, which is a few months ago.

It happens when songs get starte from my iPhone or from the iPhone from my wife, not sure if it also happens when I use the Desktop-app or the webplayer.

But I assume that this is not a problem on the client-side, but on the server-side.

@Spotify I can manually log when this incident happens, if this would help your developers to track the bug down.

Hey folks,

Thanks for getting in touch with us 🙂

It's a good idea to try with another account on your device. Does the issue occur? That way we can check if it's an account-related issue.

@Hendrikvp We'd suggest you give these steps a go and run a clean reinstall. By doing that you can make sure the app is up-to-date and the cache is not causing any issues.

You can also send us a screenshot of what you're seeing. We'll investigate this further.

Keep us in the loop! If you have more questions, we are here for you.
