My Question or Issue

Everytime I open the app it switches playback to repeat/loop. It's not much of an issue if I hit play on a playlist. But I generally don't use playlists except at work. When I search a song and click it to play, its automatically on repeat. Since the "playlist" for one song is well... One song. That means it defaults to repeating the same song. I know the "solution" is to just uncheck the loop. But it's a hassle to open the player and change it every single time I start the app with a new session. And I'm usually not thinking about that. I'm thinking "I wanna listen to Torna a Casa and the rest of the songs the algorithm suggests like it."  And it makes it essentially impossible to start listening hands free.

Hey there folks,

 

Thanks to everyone that has taken the time to post their details in the thread. We really appreciate the cooperation and have forwarded the info to the relevant team. They'll be investigating and as soon as we have an update, we'll let you know.

 

In the meantime, make sure to keep Spotify up-to-date and the Community's here if you need help with anything else.

 

Cheers!

This bug is infuriating and continues to happen. I have never set any playlist to repeat after it finishes. Every time my alarm triggers, the next time I use spotify whatever I play is set to repeat. I never want this behavior. I have tried deleting and recreating the alarm aftering checking that the playlist I've chosen (my liked songs) is not set to repeat. It does not make a difference. I have an Android device on the latest version of Android and of Spotify. Please fix this. It is one of two Spotify bugs that I have to deal with literally every day and so, so tiresome.
