Connecting to Spotify from Roku stick reboot the roku

[AnickHuet]

Everything were working fine for months. For the last 2 days, when I try to log in Spotify from my roku stick everything freeze for about a minute, then the roku reboots. I can access Spotify properly from my table and my computer. Netflix, Yahoo and other apps still works fine on Roku. I did not made any modifycations to my systems, it just stopped working.

Thanks for your help

I have the exact same problem on my Roku TV. Every time I open the Spotify app it just closes right away. It’s been like this for almost 2 weeks! Really annoying

Hey there folks,

We really appreaciate reporting this here in the Community!

We'd first recommend making sure to try the steps below:

• Restart the modem and reconnect all your devices.
• Restart the Roku device.
• Reinstall the Spotify app native to the device/s in question.
• Make sure you have the latest firmware and OS for said devices. For assistance with this. you can reach out to the good folks at Roku.
• Make sure that there are no issues with Spotify Connect on the mobile apps they are trying to sync with Roku. You can find more steps here.

If the issue persists after that, let us know by adding your +VOTE and the following details:

• The Spotify version on your Roku TV
• The firmware version of your Roku device and/or OS (operating system) version

I rebooted my wifi modem and routeur and now Spotify works on my Roku.  It hesitated, looked like it wanted to freeze, but then it worked!  Not sure why, but it works.  Yeah!

I reinstalled Spotify and is working now.

Thanks
