Liked Songs not syncing across devices

Hey folks!

 

We are receiving reports that some of you are experiencing persistent issues with your Liked Songs not syncing across all platforms. This includes iOS, Android, desktop app, and the Web Player. 

Hey folks,

 

We received some news that this issue should now be fixed on desktop, web and iOS, but the team is still investigating when it comes to Android devices.

 

In order to sync your tracks across devices, make sure to remove and then re-add them.

 

Cheers!

Hey @MattH42,

 

Thank you for reaching out to the Community and welcome.

 

Jumping in to suggest some extra steps. If you installed the app from the official website, would you mind checking if installing the version available in the Microsoft store (or vice versa) makes any difference?

 

Also, since this seems to be affecting the desktop app only, could you check if the issue persists by disabling/enabling hardware acceleration? You can do this by clicking the 3-dot menu at the top left of the app and selecting: Help > Troubleshooting > Enable/Disable hardware acceleration

 

Lastly, we'd recommend logging out and back in twice to force the sync between your account and your device.

 

Hope this helps. Let us know how it goes.

Another fix is if you can’t find it in file explorer go to the Spotify app settings in your windows computer and go all the way down till you see reset then reset and wait till it’s done log back in and it should be fixed

It's still not fixed. I'm disappointed.

This was the solution for me, thank you. The deleting the app data folder method that's marked as a solution in the thread doesn't work.

Everyone else be sure to right click on the Spotify icon in the taskbar > troubleshoot > reset app data and restart

Hello,

I recently re-downloaded my computer app (Mac) and added some songs to my liked playlist. 

 

When I went to view the liked playlist it was missing a massive amount of songs and when I checked Spotify on my phone (iPhone) it had updated my liked songs to now also be missing all these songs, mirroring the amount shown on my computer. 

 

It seems like it only includes the liked songs I had since I had last logged in on my computer (which was awhile ago) so now I am missing all these songs I had added from the phone app.

 

Anyone have a solution to improper syncing which has reverted my playlist on all platforms to 2 years in the past?

I have the same issue, I am definitely logged into the same account and profile on both devices. Spotify desktop is not showing any of the songs I've liked on my phone since June 13th. There is also definitely some older probably syncing each of these devices as my android phone says I have 975 songs like while my desktop says I have 985, which makes it even more interesting that my desktop is the one that is missing songs in the list

I also want to report that**bleep** ass reply thing isn't showing my previous reply to you. Your cto should be fired, lemme know if the position opens up

Same, this keeps happening. The fixes do sort it but obviously there is a bug here that keeps coming back.
