Highest of fives! That worked for me too 😉 Super stoked to fix that, was driving me crazy, much appreciated!

I have to do this daily.  This should not be the case, meaning this is an issue with Spotify.  They need to fix it.

This worked a charm and is dead simple to do. Thanks!!!

I add new tracks to my playlist on my phone, then open Spotify on my computer, and... BAM! The playlist still looks the same. I have to manually open it to get the update.

Why doesn't Spotify have an option to auto-refresh playlists on app launch? 🤔

Imagine if there was an "Refresh All Playlists" button in the settings – just one click and everything's synced up across all devices. So simple, yet so effective!

What do you think? Maybe if enough people agree, they might add it. 🚀

Thanks, that did it. I had tried re-downloading the app, updating, keeping Spotify open as a mobile app and nothing helped. But in the desktop app (Help - Troubleshooting - Reset app data and restart) everything worked.

I am also having this problem and use an iPhone 15 with 9.0.28.607. I’ve tried going offline, restarting, playing from another device and then transferring to my iPhone. None of it works. Going to have to reinstall but then will lose all my downloads.

Hi community, I just want to report that I have the same issue. On my Samsung S22, my car and my 2 Ipads synchronization of „liked songs“ is always ok. But on my old iphone 8 it happens that the playlist is not synced. I mostly am missing songs on the iphone, which had been recently added on the Ipad. I tried to log on/off on the iphone, cleared cache, updated the app, stopped offline mode. Nothing helps. Normally days later if I look again, the songs appear. Is there not trigger to force the update locally? Thanks for you help, Jochen

Hey guys also having the same issue, not sure when it started, I think this year? I know that doesn't narrow it down much.

I ended up being frustrated and just adding the songs to my 'Liked Songs' on the desktop app, but usually I add it on my mobile (Samsung S22 Ultra).

 

Desktop version: Spotify for Windows (64 bit) 1.2.59.514.g834e17d4

Mobile version: 9.0.28.630

 

On desktop I tried clearing cache and restarting, logging out + in, didn't seem to make a difference.

Actually thought it was all up to date but noticed a discrepancy,

 

Desktop: 685 songs

Mobile: 682 songs
