Music Blend only showing one Icon (Web Player)

[Fitti96]

Hello.
I have a shared mix/blend on spotify with another person.
Usually the pictures/names of the people on the side of the songs are next to each other. ( As in, both of you listened to that song and only a couple of them are displayed with only one person one the side if the other one didnt listen to the song recently)

But now all songs are just connected to one person, either me or the other person in this mix. (So just one person is displayed next to the song, regardless of if both partys listened to it or not apparently)

I would like to know what the reason for this could be?
Thanks in advance!

Hey folks,

We've had some additional issues with the Blends feature which should get resolved within the next 72 hours. 

The issue described originally in this thread where only one user is being shown next to the tracks is still under investigation and as promised, we'll let you know once we have news to share.

Cheers,

Hello @Fitti96 and thanks for posting in the Community!

The Blend playlist is created based on at least two users' music tastes, allowing them to learn more about their musical overlap with one another, and listen together. The profile picture next to each track is supposed to indicate which person it was 'added by' (based on their listening habits). It also updates daily with songs based on all of your listening activity.

If you're only seeing all of the songs connected to one person with their profile photo, could you let us know if this is happening across devices? It would also be helpful if you could check how things look like for the other person that you've created the Blend with.

It's possible that this is a minor issue which can be resolved with some simple steps and if you (and the other person) have not already done this, it's worth testing:

• Logging out > back in twice in a row for a quick resync.
• Checking in the Web Player.
• Leaving the Blend and creating a new one (more info in this help article).

Thanks and we'll be on the lookout for your response 🙂

Hey again, thanks for answering!

I am currently and usually using the Opera web player. After checking the App and my phone, i can say the problem apparently only exists in the Web player.
Does this mean there is a problem with the web player? And if so, is there a way to fix this or is it a problem with the browser in general currently? ( Logging in and out of the web player did not work)

Thanks in advance.

Hey @Fitti96,

Thanks for the reply!

If the issue isn't present in the mobile app, then there might be something wrong with the Web Player on your end or at least the browser you're using. To check if that's the case, could you try testing this in a different browser - Chrome, Edge, Firefox, etc.? You can give an incognito window a try as well. It'd be also great if you can see if the same thing happens in the desktop app just to rule out any device-related issues.

We also recommend checking for any pending browser updates and disabling any ad blockers or extensions of this sort temporarily to see if that makes a difference. It's also worth clearing the browser's cache, flushing DNS and restarting it afterwards.

Let us know how it goes.

Hey, thanks for the reply.

I checked the Spotify Web Player in another Browser, the issue still apllies there too.
The Desktop App does NOT have this issue. So it seems to be a problem just with the Web Player.

Clearing the chache of the Browser and other things did not help.
I hope this information might help to sort the issue out.

Thanks in advance

Hii, I've been having this issue on my laptop for a couple weeks on both app and web player, and as of today it's happening on my phone too. I also have a blend that has been going for months that is suddenly only five songs long and only "my" songs- 

[Fitti96]

So apart from the previous problem with the mix only showing 1 person next to the song, it now also for me only shows 5 songs in the mix. This happend yesterday. The previous problem still persists and now also occurs on every Hardware and any form of Spotify application.

I am so happy I am not losing my mind. This has started happening to me today. Only showing 4 songs on one of my blends playlists, another blend does show 50 songs, however only shows a series of 5 artists throughout instead of the usual mix of music.

It's happening on all my devices as well as the web player. I've tried logging out, clearing my cache, restarting the blend playlists.

I'm hoping this problem gets fixed 😭
