Why do songs stop in the middle and skip to next song or just keep restarting in the middle of the song?

Hello @user-removed , could you please give us some more information about your issue?

For example:

- When does this happen?

- Does this happen on every playlist, or just a few?

- Are you sure your account is secure? (here you can read more about on how to secure your account)

Keep us posted, we're happy to help! 🙂

These issues happen during normal playback. 

I don't know if they happen in every playlist or some or just one. I only registered yesterday.

Yes, the account is secure.

Hey EricBrian!

Thanks for your reply.

I researched this a bit, and it turns out that a re-installation or a cache clearance should do the trick.

Here you can find more about reinstalling Spotify, but first try this:

To clear your cache in Windows:

Spoiler

- Close Spotify completely

- Create an backup of your Storage file, located here: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Spotify

You can create an backup by renaming the 'Storage' file to 'StorageBackup'.

This needs to be deleted if everything works fine after these steps.

- Open Spotify

Hope this will help fixing your problem!

How is that going to help me? This is on my Android device!

Well, I never thought of that! Sorry!

Did you try to reinstall the Spotify app?
If you did, can you give me the following information?:
- App version (check for updates in the Play Store!)
- Android version (check for updates in Settings > System > Update)
- Which device are you using?

Keep us posted!

Sadly, this still isn't fixed on my Pixel 4.
