Playback doesn't sync PC to phone (but does the opposite way)

Playback doesn't sync PC to phone (but does the opposite way)

Premium member. Windows 10 and iPhone 5. 

 

When I'm listening on my phone and I open Spotify on my PC, it shows the current track playing and lets me control resuming it on PC, pause/play etc.

 

But - more importantly - when I'm playing on my PC and I go somewhere else and open Spotify on my phone and want to resume playing, it doesn't show ANYTHING - it has no knowledge of what the PC is doing. It only ever seems to show the most recent track I played on the iPhone itself. 

 

Please help. This is very annoying behaviour. I'd like to seamlessly be able to switch between them as I often have to go back and forth from my office to other rooms.

Hey  @raze4daze! Welcome to the Spotify Community. ^^

 

That's odd.

I know it sounds dumb, but be sure to check if your app is set into the 'Offline Mode'.

And are both of the devices using the same Wi-Fi network? If not, that could cause these issues.

 

Let me know how it goes! ^^

Peace
