Missing Friend Activity Feed

[PavPavPav]

The friend activity feed panel, normally on the panel to the right of the Windows desktop app (Windows 10), is completely missing.  I have "Show Friend Activity" toggled on in "Display Settings."  So where the heck is it?  

Anyone else have this problem?  I will cancel my subscription if this can't be resolved.

Hey @PavPavPav

Try clicking View and Zoom out.

If that doesn't help, try a clean reinstall:

Log out of Spotify and then close the program.

Uninstall

Browse to the cache. The default location should be C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\Local\Spotify\Storage and delete everything inside the folder.

Delete the folder C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\Local\Spotify\Users\<random numbers-user>\ There is a folder for each profile that has been logged into Spotify on that computer account.

Reinstall.

Hopefully that'll fix the issue. 🙂

Hi Osornios!  Thanks for the reply.  The friend activity feed WAS there, but I did indeed have to zoom out to find it.  

Have a great week!

Hey there @GypsyBoi, 

Thanks for reaching out to the Community about this. 

When you open the Windows desktop-app, just go to the upper left corner of the app-window. Click on the three-dots menu and the third option says View. Once you click on it, you'll be able to zoom in, zoom out or reset the zoom setting. 

Hope this helps. Let us know if you have any more questions.

Hi

I'm having a different issue regarding the activity friends list. I can only see half of my friends' activity. The other half is simply gone, and I know that they are using Spotify and they told me that they have the option to show others what they are hearing on. I tried loging in and out. I tried a fresh reinstall. I tried deleting the folders listed above. None of that has fixed my issue. I don't know what else I can do. Here's a picture showing that right now I can only see 1 friends' activity despite following 7 with the option enabled.

Thank you

Hey @Mau727,

Thanks for reaching out and welcome to the Community.

Please keep in mind that the friends you follow on Spotify need to have the setting switched to ON for you to be able see their activity in your Friend Feed. Plus you'll need yours switched to ON if you want your followers to see your activity too.

If you're certain that that's the case, you might be experiencing a case of this Ongoing issue. You can add your vote to it by clicking on the +VOTE button. Make sure you follow the steps provided under Status Update as well.
