[Podcasts] Podcast saved progression not working

[nicholaszk]

When I complete a podcast episode on my Android phone or Windows PC app, the episode is marked as not-played. It saves progress if I stop early, but if the episode finishes completely, it's like I never listened to it.

Hey @nicholaszk, 

Thanks for reaching out to us about this - we'll be glad to help you out here.

First thing you can try is a clean reinstall of the Spotify app on both devices. We suggest this step since it removes any corrupted data that could be causing the issue.

If this persists, check the hosts file on your PC for entries that need to be deleted by following the steps described here. Make sure no battery optimization settings or data cleaning apps run active on your mobile device. Such features can often prevent the app from operating at full capacity. We also recommend accessing the app settings and making sure all Permissions are enabled for Spotify. 

Let us know how you get on! We'll be here in case you need any further help with this.
