My Question or Issue

When I try to share a song to my Instagram story from the Spotify app, it posts without the Spotify sticker in the top left corner. It just posts a screenshot (attached below) with no way of linking back to the Spotify app to play the track. 

 

My phone software and Spotify app are both up to date and I have tried deleting and redownloading both multiple times. This feature used to work no problem but just stopped one day.

Hey folks,

Thanks for your patience while we looked into this issue.

We’re happy to say that this should now be fixed for everyone!

If you’re still experiencing this issue, can you make a new thread in the iOS board? We'll get back to you there.

Thanks!

Hey @Michalen.

 

Thanks for reaching out to us about this.

 

It looks like you haven't got the latest version of the Spotify app for Android. Could you make sure you've updated it and then let us know if that fixes the issue?

 

Thanks! We'll be looking out for your reply.

Hey folks,

 

Thanks for reaching out to us about this on the Community.

 

We are currently working with Instagram to make this option available for everyone soon!

 

Right now we cannot provide an exact timeframe on when it's going to be out to everybody.

 

In the meantime, we recommend you keep both your apps updated.

 

Thanks!

Same here. I've tried with Soundcloud, "play on Soundcloud" does not appear too, I think it's Instagram app bug, not Spotify. Looks like Instagram on our devices (I have Samsung GT-I9060i) has a bug during external apps sharing on stories.
