It's happening to me in Android Pie too, using the latest Alpha update.

Samsung Galaxy S10+ here, same issue since the newest Alpha update yesterday.

Hey there @Delta427@MartinB42 and @rvdializ,

 

Thanks for reaching out here in the Community regarding this!

 

Just to confirm, are you all in the latest Alpha version of the app available?

 

If so, we'd suggest following the steps provided in this Spotify Answer to report any issues you encounter in the Alpha or Beta versions of the app. 

 

If you aren't in an Alpha/Beta version and you're experiencing this, we'd recommend trying a clean reinstall of the app first. You can follow the steps to do that here

 

Let us know how you get on! We'll be right here if you need more help.

 

Have a lovely day 🙂

hours ago to the address provided; I haven't had any response yet, hence my

Hope the teams finds the fix!

Hey again,

 

Thanks for keeping us in the loop!

 

@MartinB42 Keep in mind that we might not reply to individual issue reports, but all issues do get forwarded to the right team nevertheless, and we do our best to fix them.

 

@Delta427 That's good to hear, thanks for sharing this! 

 

In this case, it may take a while before you get the updated version but the best option to make sure you won't miss a fix is to enable automatic updates of the app. There's more info on how to do that here

 

@enswan Thanks for posting and welcome to the Community! You mention you're on the Alpha version of the app. In this case, we'd suggest following the steps provided in this Spotify Answer to report any issues you encounter in the Alpha or Beta versions of the app.
