App crashing for iOS free users when trying to connect to Bluetooth

We've received reports that iOS users of free accounts are experiencing app crashing when they try to connect their device to their AirPods via Bluetooth.

Hey folks,

 

Thanks for your patience while we looked into this issue.

 

We're happy to announce that this should now be fixed for everyone - just make sure you're running the latest version of Spotify.

 

If you're still having trouble, you can post a new thread in the relevant Help board here.

 

Cheers 🤘

Hey i’m here on July 30, 2024 and experienced this issue randomly while driving. Did all types of things to troubleshoot.. ie; phone restart, forget device on bluetooth, uninstall spotify/reinstall. 

None of them worked and i’m still trying. Spotify works perfectly fine when not connected to bluetooth but when i am the app closes itself.

I have tried it on multiple devices and I get the same results. As soon as I hook it up Spotify closes itself out. I’ve tried forgetting the device and that didn’t work. The speaker I am trying to use is an Anker sound core.
