My Question or Issue

My Friend Activity list is missing several of my friends that I follow. Anyone else? Or just me? I've tried logging out and back in, restarting, reinstalling, etc.

Hey @KL69

 

Do you still have the issue after deleting the Spotify app from https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=applications and logging in again?

Unfortunately, yes. After removal, whether I log in using my credentials, or through Facebook (which of course adds it back into Facebook again) the Friend Activity list remains the same.

Hi there @KL69,

 

Thanks for getting back to us.

 

In this case, could you try logging out and then logging back in twice in the app? This is how we force the app to refresh its cache. 

 

If this doesn't do the trick, you mentioned that you've already reinstalled the app, but would you mind going through the steps of a clean reinstall, as it's more thorough than a normal one?

 

Keep us posted on how it goes.

Thank you for this suggestion. I've just tried logging back in a few times, then I tried completely removing the app (and confirming the appdata folders were also removed). Upon reinstall I still have the same six friends as before. It's strange, I created a 'Blend' playlist with the missing friend not that long ago, so it's not my imagination that it worked briefly a few versions ago!

Hi @KL69,

 

Thank you for your reply! 

 

Just as heads up, all users that you follow must have the "Share my listening activity on Spotify" setting enabled in the app settings to be seen in your Friend Feed, they should also be listening on Spotify through the native app itself rather than using Spotify Connect. 
 

Also, if your friends have activated the "Private Session" feature, they won't show in other user's feed. It's worth making sure their settings aren't interfering in this situation.

 

Let us know if you have any questions.
