My Question or Issue

I can’t play anything on my phone and I also can’t download my songs. This happened after I updated the spotify app on the app store. Is there a fix?

Hey folks,

Thanks for your patience while we looked into this issue.

We’re happy to say that this should now be fixed for everyone!

 

Be sure to perform a clean reinstall of the app and make sure you're on the latest version.

 

Thanks!

My Question or Issue

 

I've recently came across an issue when I was doing my routinely checking of my weekly Playlist and when I turned off offline mode and tried to play a song from the Playlist it wouldn't play and when I tried using shuffle it just kept on skipping endlessly. 

 

So I quickly contacted my cousin and he said he was having the same problem. Although he wasn't using the app at the time I encountered this problem. He then logged out my account on his device, but the problem was still there. 

 

I tried logging out everywhere but the problem still persisted. I only gave access to my account to 2 people my mom, and my cousin, whom I both trust.

 

I also noticed that this problem only worked on non downloaded songs because when I tried playing songs from my "liked" Playlist on shuffle it would stop skipping when it reached a song that I downloaded.

My Question or Issue

My Spotify on my iPhone keeps on skipping music. However, downloaded music is fine. But I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, now I can't even download the music.
I tried playing Spotify on my laptop and it works fine. But when I play my spotify on my phone as well as laptop, my laptop keeps on skipping unless I close the spotify app on my phone.  I tried restarting my phone several times, each one reinstalling the app, but to no avail. Please do help me.

Hi, 

 

This is also happening to me. I recently upgraded from Huawei P10 to P30. Unfortunately, the Spotify app doesn't stream and download songs. I have a Premium account and I have tried all the quick fixes such as clean install, re-install, log out log in, clear cache and data, and more but none of them work.

Oddly enough, I can still stream songs using my P30 via Google Chromecast and plah songs on my TV but it simply won't stream and download songs if I chose my P30 as the main device to listenor play songs. 

 

Additionally, everything works well using my P10 that's running on Android 9 - EMUI 9.1.0.

I hope this gets fixed.

Hi, I am also encountering the same problems. My spotify would not play any music, instead, it keeps skipping through songs. Downloading also does not work even with a premium account. I tried installing, re-installing the app, logging out and logging in but, nothing seems to work.

 

I hope there will be a fix regarding these problems.

My Question or Issue

 

I have the same issue, when I try to play a song it won't play and just skips. It played songs that are already saved to cache but when I reinstalled and cleared data, it just won't play anything anymore. Plays for a couple of secs then stops. Also the album art seems to just keep on loading. Please help.
