Aside from trying restarting and/or a clean reinstall of the app, it'd be great if you'd give disabling Background App Refresh a shot: this could be found under Settings -> General -> Background App Refresh.
Thanks! We’ll keep you posted and let you know as soon as we have any updates on this.
Good news!
There’s a new version (8.6.64) of Spotify available in the App Store. The latest version includes fixes and improvements that should eliminate the stability and performance issues affecting a subset of iOS users.
If you have automatic updates switched on, you should have the newest version shortly. If not, you’ll have to update the App manually. You can find step-by-step instructions for updating Spotify here.
