Question about moving with Spotify

I'm originally from the US but just did an exchange year in Germany. I downloaded spotify while living in Germany so now I'm wondering if it will automatically change to the US Spotify when I go back or if I'll have to redownload it? Or how would that work? Curious because US users don't have a time cap and I just hit my limit but I leave for the US again on Thursday so will I be able to use it when I get back?

Did you register an account in Germany? If so, you'll probably have a German account. To confirm this, go to http://www.spotify.com/account/profile and see what country it is set to.

 

When you get back to the US, you should be able to change the country to US again, which will give you the no limits.

Hi, and welcome to the community!

 

If you go to a different country than your account is set to, then Spotify will recognise that you've gone abroad. But when you go back to your home country (US in this case), it will no longer register you as abroad so everything should be normal again.
