someone used my account, now all playlists lost

[KERFRO]

hi! 

Someone seems to have recently logged into my account.

Not sure if all of this is related, but: 

1. I connected my account to the Sonos speaker of a friend

2. A few days later wierd music was playing already when I opend the mobile app, but it wasn't my friend

3. Now all my playlists are gone. 

I already logged out of all devices. But I would like to recover my playlists. Can anyone help me? 

Thanks, 

Kerstin

Hi Kerstin,
To fix the problems with other people using your account:
1. Change your password to a more secure code, with letters, numbers and symbols.
2. Choose the log out everywhere option in your Spotify app settings, this will force the other person to log in again.

To recover your playlists:
1. Log in to your account on spotify.com and go into your account settings.
2. From there, click on the option "Recover Playlists". You can recover any deleted playlists right there.
