My Question or Issue
It’s the third time that i try to listen to Bruddanem by JID entirely and I can’t because Spotify crashes every time.
I am exhausted with the bugs in this application and the changes for the worse that you make. Before a few updates ago I had the beautiful graphics of the new player and now the old one is back, which I honestly think is awful even compared to other streaming services. Also when you make new changes I don't know why they go away after a few updates, apart from the fact that to me the new features take forever to arrive compared to my friends.
I love music and I hate when I'm unable to listen to it because of these stupid problems.
I'm seriously thinking about switching to apple music, because I can't take it anymore.
Sorry for the outburst, but I have been seeing these things for years and now I’m at the limit, really.
Solved! Go to Solution.
I installed the update 8.8.52, seams to work again. I will check today, if it’s working I will mark that post.

My Question or Issue
Everything on Spotify works fine UNTIL I try and click on the search bar. It immediately crashes the app completely and doesn’t even pull up the keyboard to let me attempt a search. Force closes instantly. I’ve signed in/out, deleted/reinstalled, updated, and cleared cache. I’ve pretty much tried everything and it still crashes everytime I attempt to click search. Thoughts?

My Issue
The app works completely fine until I use the search bar, when I click on a search result the app immediately crashes.
Spotify is fully updated to version 8.8.50. I have already tried logging in and out multiple times, restarting my phone, clearing cache, and deleting and reinstalling the app. My storage is also not full.
Logging in and out twice in a row temporarily fixed the issue but when I closed and reopened Spotify it happened again.
I’m having the same issue on iOS 15.1.1 on iPhone 12 mini. Must be a bug on early iOS 15 versions. Hopefully it’s fixed soon.
Same issue on iOS 16.5.1 - I can play the songs from an existing playlist, but tapping any search result causes the app to crash immediately.
Issue appeared today.
Same issue even on older iOS. I’m on 14.4 and I can’t even type anything into the search bar before it instantly crashes.
I have the same issue on iPhone iOS 15. I downgraded the app to version 8.8.0 and the issue went away.
Also having this issue
IPhone 11 Pro, iOS 14.2
I’m on IOS 14.3 and same issue so not just software , forsure a bug in the app
Same issue here on iPhone 11, IOS 14.4.2
Facing the same problem since yesterday on my iOS 14. Hope it gets resolved soon.
I’m having the same issue on iOS15. It’s frustrating.
Same thing here. Spotify for iOS 8.8.50.456 keeps crashing (closing itself) when you try to tap on anything on the player screen.
Hi all,
Since yesterday, I am experiencing instant crashes while playing/displaying podcats (audio & video, even if I mainly listen to audio podcasts) :
So far:
But the issue is still on...
Have you ever experienced it?
What should I do?
Thanks in advance for your help and time.
Kind regards,
Jacko

I haven't done extensive testing yet, but in my case it always crashes when I'm listening without being in the app (with the screen off or when I’m on other apps). The crash is random, but still happens within a few minutes
In my case it’s playing until I touch it. But I use Spotify mainly to listen to podcasts. So in your case, there may be another glitch in action when changing tracks. Songs are changing more often, so if there is a bug which does appear every time it changes track, it will appear more often when you listen to songs than with podcasts.
In my case it doesn’t crash during playing a track until I touch the player.
TLDR: I think we can assume, while it’s originating from one version, it will be the same problem or problem with the same origin, but I don’t know if anybody from Spotify reads this forum.
In case there is anybody from Spotify to get this info to developers, I enclose more specs:
iPhone 13 Pro
iOS version: 15.5
Spotify 8.8.50.456
Usually there are some in the community who read the topics and reply. However in my case the problem does not happen to me when I change tracks but during playback and it’s stressful, but I think it is the same with podcasts
same problem with ios 14.3 on an iphone XR

My Question or Issue
My spotify keeps crashing whenever I listen to a song and am doing something on another app. It’s been like this for a few days. When I go to open the app after it crashes it just goes back to the beginning of the song. I don’t know what is going on.
Having the exact same issue. Tried clean installs too. Hoping the tech people get to this
