Hi errette!

 

Welcome to the Spotify Community, we're glad to see you're part of the band.

 

Just to check, is this happening over 3G or 4G. Also, how long does it display as "Offline" before connecting?

 

Best thing to try here is a reinstall, just follow these steps. Then, restart your device and make sure the app is not set to "Offline Mode" (Settings > Playback). 

 

Let us know how it goes, we'll be right here waiting 🙂

Problem solved. Uninstalling and reinstalling solved it.

 

It was happening over 4G. The "Offline" display used to last forever. It was not in "offline mode".

 

Thanks for your help!

My phone is still not allowing me to listen on data after reinstalling 4 times. I have unlimited data and this has never been a problem before.

I have also had this problem for many months. The app is not set to offline, I have 4G, signal, unlimited data, latest updated app, uninstalled and redownloaded, reset phone. Streaming works fine in other apps, Spotify works fine on wifi.
