Notifications won't go away

[Joppen]

Since the most recent update my Spotify has told me I have notifications. When I try to load the notifications it just shows a loading circle that never goes away. I tried restarting, but every time I restart it just says I have one more notification than I did before. It's really annoying, aesthetically.

Have you tried logging out of the Spotify app, and then logging back in?

[jhickey06]

Having same problem. And no way to disable notifications in Preferences.

Logging out did work, thanks. But that isn't a I want to do every day.

What a terrible 'upgrade' this has been.  I'm seriously thinking about switching to Rdio.

Should have thought of that. Thanks!

I have tried logging in and out, it just gets rid of the current notifications, but the problem still persists after I receive any new messages, the notification still sticks until I log in and out again. Any help would be amazing!

Has anything happened with this?

I have the same issue and it's really annoying. I have a friend's message with a song in it from over a year ago and I just want the notification to go away

[Tmb5224]

Nope, still an issue for me!

[BrianLelas]

I've had the same notification pretending to be new for over a year now.

Really annoying.

Logging out is not a solution. It is a work around for a problem that Spotify has not fixed. I and others would like to see this fixed by Spotify.

This is not a solution, it's a workaround. This issue is not solved.
