Hey @nameandage,

 

Thanks for reaching out to us. 

 Please follow these steps: 

 

  1. Log out from everywhere.
  2. Do a clean reinstall as described here.  
  3. If that does not help go to:
  • Mobile Settings> Apps> Spotify> Permissions. Allow everything you see there.
  • Mobile settings> Apps> Spotify> Battery> Optimize battery usage> select top All (not optimized for apps)> Spotify> disable.
  • Then restart the device.

Let us know if the issue persists.
