Hi folks, We’ve received some reports from users on iOS devices indicating that the equalizer isn’t working. There seems to be no sound difference even when adjusting the Equalizer on mobile, but it works on different devices (e.g. desktop).

We've received reports from some users that there's stuttering and playback issues on desktop. Music plays for 8-9 seconds, and then the track skips with no sound. This seems to only affect the desktop app.

We've been getting reports from Premium users that when a song finishes, it doesn’t automatically move on to the next one, it just stops. For some users, it prompts them to play while they’re offline. This seems to happen on a variety of devices.
