Albums not loading on Android devices

[Yordan]

We've received reports that albums don't load on Android devices. When tapping an album a black screen appears.

This is being investigated.

Happens for my daughter as well on her Sony Z3 tablet compact with Android 6.0.1.

Spotify App version is 8.7.72.546

Clean install did not help in my case.

Samsung Galaxy A10

Android 11

Spotify 8.7.72.546

On the startscreen, the info symbol reports a new message, when I click it, it says "something went wrong". Repeatedly.

When I open albums, the screen turns black.

Playlists are reported empty

Hello, I'm using an Samsung Galaxy S5, Android 6.0.1

Clean install didn't fix the issue. I don't have any other Android devices to check against. Had the problem since Friday I think. Same issue as reported above: just a black screen when I open any album. For me, playlists open properly with everything in it and everything else works fine.

Same issue Samsung Galaxy A10
Android 11
Spotify 8.7.72.546
Other Samsung devices no problems

Just solved this: SD-card should be removed while reinstalling Sotify!

I have the same problem. I have a Samsung Galaxy A10 and Andorid Version 11, on my samsung tablet I don´t have any problems. Spotify version: 8.7.72.546

For me there is also a problem with playlists: my own are all gone and when I clicked on the ones made by spotify (like radio, or autumn chillout,...) it says they are empty. This problem has been ongoing for 1 week and I have reinstalled the app 3 times and looged in and out of my account at least 10 times, would be glad if the problem could be resolved soon. Thank you!

Galaxy A10, latest updated spotify app does not work, it is empty

Since about 5-OCT-2022 Spotify has been working Ok through the desktop version... and on my Android smartphone... but is problematic on my tablet.

Symptoms: Tapping on albums stalls after clearing the main screen.  Tapping on a playlist loads the playlist Ok.  Using 'Search' is often very slow.  Internet connection is via wireless (54mbps), adjacent to router.  Australian internet is pretty awful at any time but is reliably stable in this case.

In all cases, the 'slowness' is so bad that Spotify goes compute-bound and often crashes the tablet.  Tried clearing cache, clearing all data, re-installing the app, changing location of the installation (Internal RAM and external SD card), ensuring no  apps are running, removing SD card entirely - all of which don't change the problematic behaviour.

Using Spotify 8.7.72.546 on a Samsung SM-T530 Tablet, running Android 5.0.2 (cannot be upgraded further as no further updates are available for this device... in Australia, at least).

I have had this problem for a number of days. Playlists and most popular songs are accessible but not albums and album tracks. I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 - model no SM-T810. 

Have not been able to reset it following the advice. Spotify is working on my mobile phone but that is much less convenient!
