The player controls in my Spotify app just disappeared. I have rebooted, cleared cache, reinstalled Spotify and even tried installing Spotify Lite. Nothing worked. Notification and lock screen controls work fine.

Hey @NakulBhat,

 

Thanks for posting in the Community.

 

This is a strange experience indeed. Are you using the app downloaded from an official source like the Google Play Store? What's the app version you're using?

 

Keep us posted,

 

Cheers!

Hello Dian! It is indeed the version from the Playstore.

 

However, the app also fixed itself without any apparent cause.

 

 

 

The version was 8.7.66.534. However, the problem originally occurred in an earlier version. The screenshot is also from the earlier version.
