I've been having the same issue ever since yesterday! It happens whenever I try to add to a playlist, whether it's adding an entire album or a single song. I've only got around 450 songs in my playlist, so it can't be a capacity issue. I hope someone can help with this!

Just recently I haven't been able to add songs to my playlists. Whenever I try it says in red at the bottom of my screen, "oooops, something went wrong." It does it on both my phone and on my computer when I try to add songs or albums/playlists to my playlist.

I'm also having the same issue with the web player. I keep getting the "oops" message. So frustrating!

My Question or Issue

Hello, I try to add songs to my playlists on web version of Spotify. When I drop the song to a playlist, I get an 'Oooops, something went wrong' error and nothing happens then. I used the 'Add to playlist' function, too, but without success - the same error appears. Till last week everything worked fine. I cleared cookies and cache, logged out and then logged in again a few times, restarted the browser, none of these steps helped. The problem keeps appearing on all of the PCs where I access the web version through Firefox, Chrome and Edge (I tried all of them). On the Spotify app for Windows I don't have this problem, but I use the web version more. What would be the reason for this issue?

Thank you!

Hi everyone, 

 

Thanks for reaching out about this here in the Community and bringing this to our attention.

 

This was reported by other users as well, but we received reports that the issue was fixed for some of them.

 

If you're still experiencing this, we suggest that you try logging out > clearing your browser's cache > logging back in. Then let us know if it works as expected now.

 

If it isn't, could you send us the exact make/model, operating system of your device and the version of your browsers? This would help us to keep investigating.

 

We'll be on the lookout for your replies.

Hi @Likey,

 

Thanks for reaching out to us. Let's see what we can do to help you out.

 

Since you've already tried using different PCs and browsers, please try connecting to a different internet network and test the Web Player again. 

 

If you get the same error, try logging with another account, such as a friend's or a family member's to see if the issue persists. In case you don't have access to another account, you can create a free one here.

 

Keep us posted!
