My Question or Issue

I have the same issue as this poster on my Mac (running Spotify 1.1.2.285.ga97985ef) except that for me the app crashes around the 1 minute 48 second mark. Strangely it used to crash earlier around the 2 minute 15 second mark. The crash time seems to be down to the second. 

I have clean installed the app a few times, added Spotify in the Security & Privacy > Accessibility list and also tried playing around with disabling Bartender 3, which I have installed, as a few people mentioned issues with menu bar managers, but to no avail.

For Spotify to direct users, especially paying, so-called Premium users, to Apple for this seems unacceptable. I hope that this issue is resolved at the earliest given the significant number of users facing it.

Here is a list of apps/services I have running in the background in case it is easier for the engineers to identify if any of them is causing this behavior.

• Bartender 3
• Alfred 3
• Hazel 4
• Default Folder X
• Moom
• Dropbox
• Backup and Sync from Google 
• Google Drive File Stream
• CrashPlan for Small Business
• 1Password 6
• Fantastical 2
• TextExpander 5
• NTFS for Mac
• Monosnap
• ToothFairy
• Amphetamine
• Anti-Social
• CheatSheet
