Hey there @ThfWeeknd7,

Thanks for reaching out on the Community!

We understand you've experience crashes of the Spotify app, but we aren't sure what exactly happens to you, so it'd be nice if you share some more details. For example what is your current Spotify version and also you could attach a short video of the situation, as this will be very helpful for us to advise you better.

 

Keep in mind that downloaded playlists are meant to be played while not having connectivity to the internet and you can read more about how to do that here

If nothing above helps, then it's worthwhile to perform a clean reinstall of the app, as this is more thorough than the normal one and ensures that no cached data will cause interference with the new installation of your app. After this reinstall you'd need to redownload the playlist, as they will be wiped out by the cache-cleaning steps. 

Hope you find this useful. Keep us posted if you have any questions.

Hi @ThfWeeknd7,

 

Thanks for the reply.

 

Do you use any apps that manage your cache? It's possible that an external app (or an automated setting for clearing cache) is causing this, so check your phone's App and Storage settings. Check also if the Spotify app is allowed to run in the background.

 

Another thing to try is disabling Samsung's Bixby to see if that makes a difference.

 

Keep us posted on this.

 

Take care.
