My Question or Issue

I want to share a lyric to instagram but the "box" is too small causing the sentence to awkwardly spaced and make it harder to read. How to change the size of the box to fit the lyric?

Hey @zak80,

 

Thank you for reaching out to the Community and welcome.

 

This type of issue is commonly related to some damaged cache stored on your device. In this case, we'd first recommend performing a clean reinstall of the app by following the steps in this article. This is often an overlooked step, but it's more thorough than a quick one and can be helpful in getting rid of any cache that might be causing trouble.

 

Also, make sure both apps are currently running its latest versions.

 

If the issue persists, would you mind checking on a different device (using your own account) to see if it makes any difference? If you don't have another one available, you can borrow one from a friend or family member to test it out.

 

We'll be on the lookout.

My Question or Issue

Lyrics box is small when sharing. It used to be wide, but now it's small and narrow. And when I go to the app I'm sharing, it's alot smaller.

When I select lyrics to share that are 4+ lines, they share as an extremely skinny box that cuts off a huge part of the text that was selected. Sometimes the tops of the letters show on the final selected lines, but you can't see 80% of them. Obviously I can't share Spotify posts to Instagram when they look like that. It's not readable and something is glitching badly

 

I uninstalled the app and reinstalled it, clearing the cache before doing so. It made no difference

I'm having the same type of problem. I think it's a version thing of this update, I don't know... This little problem is really annoying me.

Hey folks,

 

Thanks for your comments.

 

We've reported this to the relevant team, we'll let you know in this thread once we have an update.

 

Cheers,

I have the same issue

I saw there was an update yesterday but it didn't fix the problem 

im having the same problem, reinstalled the app and cleared everything and still the narrow box 😞 premium plan with a samsung a23

Same problem here on my Pixel 9 Pro. All apps up to date, cache deleted, clean reinstall

O layout atual não está proporcional quando vai compartilhar, devíamos voltar para o layout antigo

And I am having the same issue
Deleted and reinstalled both Spotify and Instagram and still the same problem

Like a week ago Spotify changed the layout of the lyrics card and it doesn't look right. Cards are narrow and lyrics barely fit.

I've already tried a clean reinstall.

Here you can see how the lyrics were two weeks ago:

And how they are today:

Same problem here. OnePlus 7T - android. I deleted cache, files, uninstalled Spotify, restarted my cellphone. Same issue. Can you please release a patch for this bug?

Same here, what a weird problem

change the way the application takes the resolution of the lyrics when sharing, because now with the window for this, the application is placing the proportion of the lyrics being shared in a more stretched way.

Hey there folks,

 

Thanks to everyone that has taken the time to post their details in the thread.

 

We've forwarded the info to the relevant team for further investigation, but for the time being we can't say exactly if or when this will be fixed.

 

In the meantime, make sure that you're using the newest app version of Spotify and the Community's here if you need help with anything else.

Same problem. Redmi Note 13 Pro+ 5G.

Same problem, Samsung Galaxy A54 and A51 as well. It got fixed for a brief time like two-three updates ago but broken again. It's been like a month with this issue.
