Car Mode Won't Turn On/Off

[CaptainSlydog]

When I opened Spotify a few hours ago on my phone, it was locked in car mode. I was only able to get the minimalist look without having the previous interface. When I tried to turn off car mode in the settings, it wouldn't turn off. I have tried disabling car mode through the car section and "Show Car Mode." My dad's phone has the same version as my phone, and car mode will not turn on.

Hi there @CaptainSlydog,

Thanks for the post.

This behavior of the app sounds very weird. Can both you and your father try turning off Bluetooth and clearing the Spotify app cache from the in-app settings, if possible. 

If you don't see the option, do a clean reinstall of the app, following this guide. Let us know if that helped.
