Podcast episodes start over from the beginning on Android

We’ve received reports that podcast episodes lose their listening progress and are starting over from the beginning. This is happening only on Android, when the following criteria are met:

  • the episode is started from a playlist - be it a personal one or Your Episodes;
  • the small white "Play" button on the right is used. When tapping on the episode title and using the big green "Play" button instead, the app remembers the progress and episodes continue as normal.

Hey folks,

 

We're happy to announce that this should now be fixed for everyone - just make sure you're running the latest version of Spotify available!

 

If you're still having trouble, it's worth logging out and signing back in to your account to force a resync or performing a clean reinstall of the app to get rid of any potentially corrupted cache.

 

Should you need assistance with anything else, you can post a new thread in the relevant Help board here.

 

Cheers 🤘
