Search function not working

[HelenaMariana]

After the latest update of Spotify (1-2 weeks ago) the search function only works from time to time. Works on iPhone but not on laptop with Win 7.

What to do?

Could you try a clean reinstallation and let us know if that makes any difference? 

[HelenaMariana]

Been too lazy to do that 🙂

But I logged out and in again and that did the trick this time!

Desktop, Win 7 ,  use Spotify ever couple days.  Today Search and Browse will not work for me.  Everything else works.  I tried logging out and in again.  Still the same problem.

I have been having the same issue. For about a week now. Seems like people have been having this issue since February, and there is still no fix yet? I find this very frustrating, considering I pay monthly, and the browse feature is the real reason for doing so. 

What gives, Spotify? Almost two months and no solution has been provided other than a 'clean uninstall' which I have tried about 5 times now. Seems rather rediculous to me.

This is unfortunately an issue that we're seeing for a small number of users. We have investigated and attempted to reproduce the issue using the information that you've provided us with. So far, without success.

We'd love to fix this issue once and for all but in order to do that, we need your help! Could you guys tell us which version of Spotify you're using and which operating system you're running. The version can be found in the about box which in turn can be found in the menu. Just clicking it should copy it to the clip board. This information is very useful for us in the process of tracking this (and other) issue (s) down!

If you remember what steps you took just before you noticed the issue, that information would also be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

This is really annoying.. I'm using iPhone 7.0.6, and spotify 1.0.0.3251. Every time I try and search I get an error message - hitting try again does nothing. I get a brief message saying I'm offline when I log on, but I can stream and use everything else. Please sort it out!
