Waze popup keeps showing when connected

Hey all,

 

From some users we've been receiving a message that the pop-up is still showing, even after a full reinstall using these instructions.

 

If you’re still experiencing this issue, make sure to click + VOTE and leave a comment below with the following:

 

  • Your device + OS version
  • Your exact Spotify version
  • Do you have Waze installed on your device?
  • Is Waze navigation activated in Spotify?

Thanks! We’ll keep you posted and let you know as soon as we have any updates on this.

Hey there folks,

 

Thanks for all your reports and patience so far!

 

This should be now fixed in the latest version of the Android app

 

If that doesn't do the trick for you, please make sure that Navigation is toggled off from the app's settings. 

 

If you're still having troubles, don't hesitate to let us know in the Help Boards. We'll be happy to lend a hand.

 

Have a lovely day 🙂

I was able to get rid of this annoying  issue fixed by doing these

Open spotify-> go to settings -> under connect to apps -> click on navigation -> turn off the slider  which says Get a reminder To use navigation apps When your in a car. -> you are good to go

I am editing my earlier post as despite the "Spotify Connections" notification disappearing upon doing a full reinstall and ensuring the toggle was off, today the notificaition returned.

 

This bug is not solved - moderators should not mark it otherwise.

 

Thank you.

Samsung Galaxy s7.

Current version from Google play.

Have never heard of Waze. Not on my phone.

It is not active in spotify.

If something is connecting to my phone without my permission that isn't right. I just came back to spotify too.
