Note 5 stops playing music after 30 seconds

[Pandacub]

Recently my note 5 will stop like 10-30 seconds after leaving the app. I'm not exiting the app all I'm doing is switching to another app. The app is also not crashing because I can still see it in my notification pull down with the app still active.
The music will then automatically start playing from the same spot once I go back into the app.

Hey @Pandacub,

Samsung introduced an agressive power saving option which is closing Spotify when the application is sent to the background or the screen display turned off.

Check this thread:

There is a battery saving option that you need to turn off. More info here:
