My Question or Issue

 

Hello Spotify !

 

Spotify version 1.2.37.701.ge66eb7bc, Copyright (c) 2024, Spotify Ltd

 

I can't search for any song from the Desktop app. I have to search for a song via mobile app and put the song to any playlist to play it on my laptop.

The message appears immediately after I put any letter in the search bar.

As long the message is active nothing can be done from the app screen, I have to reload the page to make the Spotify usable.

I tried to reinstall the app, clean cache. Did not help.

I made a log from one session - but seems nothing is stored there while the issue comes.

On the Windows app all works fine.

[edit]

The Spotify Web Player works fine as well.

Updated my NixOS system and can confirm it's fixed in Spotify version 1.2.59.514.g834e17d4 

Unfortunately the 2025 version of the spotify program uses AVX instructions which are not supported on older hardware.
