I lost all my playlists and offline synced songs since the update rolled out. Can't keep any downloaded songs. Shutting down spotify on my phone and/or restarting android and then starting spotify again brings me up to the login screen, and then all my songs are gone.

Downgrading won't work, reinstalled lots of old versions that worked like a charm before. Scrubbing my entire system for traces of spotify and then reinstalling fresh once more won't work either.

0.7.4 sucks.

Hi. Could you copy and paste that in this bug topic. Please also try Per's request to run spotify without it using the external SD card for a while, thanks.

That I won't do. Not a viable option. Cannot store my 2000+ -ish songs there.

It seems to have not been fixed, sometimes when I skip the current track, the right cover is shown, but it shows the previous track's title, artist and album. But when I pause the track, the right one is shown.
It happens on both my Nexus 4 and 7 2013 running KitKat 4.4.2 on ART.
