Spotify closes instantly when I launch it

Solved!

Spotify closes instantly when I launch it

Spotify was working perfectly in offline mode. When I disabled "Force offline" Spotify kept crashing when when Istarted the app.

 

I've completely removed Spotify and reinstalled. Now it instantly closes (no error message) when I launch the app.

 

I'm using a Galaxy Nexus with the 4.0.2 stock rom.

 

What's wrong?

 

Thanks

What's wrong is that Spotify doesn't officially support Android 3 or 4. Shame huh?

 

This can't be true. Are you kidding me? Is the whole dev team sleeping?

In the short term you can try uninstalling and reinstalling again, or clearing the cache, or wiping the Spotify folder from the SD card - these things usually allow you to use the app again for a while, but until they update the app properly we're going to keep getting these issues

I just got a new phone and I can't get it to even open. It acts like its installed correctly but does nothing, on a comical note the Spoget app works fine.

Have a Galaxy S2 - since I updated to 4.0.3 I've had this problem - Being forced to use offline mode and with only my current playlists Spotify is much less useful...
