My Question or Issue

It won't let me scroll to the left to see my other genres, a few weeks ago i could still scroll to see all of them. I have reinstalled and cleared the cache several times.

Hey folks,

Thanks for your posts.

The right folks at Spotify are aware of this issue and are working on a fix. We don't have an exact timeframe for this yet, so we'd recommend keeping your app up to date.

As far as we're aware, this issue is present only on Android devices. Some community members have reported that after updating to version 8.7.6 this issue has been resolved for them.

If you're running this version or newer and still experiencing the issue, can you please let us know:

• your device model and OS version
• your Spotify version

This will help the teams working on it.

Cheers!

I am having this issue as well.

Phone: TCL 20 Pro 5G

a work around that "works for me": Go offline , open spotify and listen to some downloaded music. then go back online and then see if it remedies. 

my history: I have suffered this bug for long and only recently it got fixed with an app update. thereafter, the above work around has worked for me . I stumbled upon it as i was frequently trying to play spotify when out of "all kinds of internet" zone.

This bug just started happening to me today and stumbling across this post doesn't give me much hope.

I tried your workaround but can't seem to get it work unfortunately.

On my spotify mobile app for the last few months the liked Playlist "mood sorter" wouldn't scroll to see other options only my top stuff

[nbm13]

Just updated to 8.8.10.582 and swiping on the liked songs playlist is still broken.

I am also experiencing the issue of not being able to scroll through genres. I removed all my liked songs and put them into a playlist and started to add them back one by one. I noticed that the scrolling worked for a while and then just completely stops. I also tried my Spotify account on a different mobile device and the scrolling didn't work either. However whenever someone signed into their account on my device the scrolling worked fine for them. Be great to get some update on this issue seeing as the last update was August last year.

Me too, using Samsung fold 4,

Running 8.8.22 and still experiencing this issue.

[LASKINATOR]

I had this problem on my Sony Xperia 1  and now that I got the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra...it is happening on here too version 8.8.24.307 for the new device. Pretty sure it was the same on the last device.

[nbm13]

Another update with the same problem still existing

[jonny330]

Over a year since it was reported and it's still an issue...

Doesn't allow you to scroll through the selection of music genres at the top of liked songs screen so you can't choose what specific genre you want to listen to

[TheHeavenlyHulk]

The genre feature seems really cool, but I cannot use it in my liked songs. I can select the genres that I see, but I am unable to scroll through all available genres. Has anybody else had this problem or does anybody know the fix?

[nbm13]

Yep, I keep testing it every time I see a new update but it's clearly not a problem they care to fix.

Hi, I happen to have the same issue. I have 

Spotify Version 8.8.32.508

Android version 12
Galaxy S10e

[nbm13]

Wow it's finally fixed for me!

Scrolling the genres now working for me again too.

I too think we should bring this option back… going thru 2 600 song to make playlist of every genre is a bit frustrating 🥲
