My Question or Issue

This is the second time this has happened. My daily mixes have had the same songs for about 3 weeks. The first time the daily mixes locked it took 2 weeks for them to update. I've logged out of my account I've tried restarting my phone I've deleted Spotify and nothing is working. Is there any way I can fix this problem? Thanks.

Edit: I’ve also noticed that songs that I have blocked on Spotify are unhidden within the hour.

I had one of the daily mix playlist downloaded.

I removed the download, and the next day the playlists were updated.

Hey folks,

Thank you for your replies here. 

Just wanted to pop in and share with you a post marked as solution for a similar situation discussed in a thread here. I've given a more detailed explanation there, on how the updating of your Daily Mixes works.

 

Also keep in mind that when exploring and adding new songs or artists to your faves, you could expect them to start appearing in your personalized On Repeat / Repeat Rewind and Daily Mix playlists, a week or three later 🙂

 

Hope you'll find this info also useful. Don't hesitate to give us a shout if there's anything else we can help with.

I checked out the thread about the 8 hours and that's incorrect. 

Spotify, this is a real issue that affects a wide number of users. Each one complains about the problem being persistent across various platforms (app, desktop, etc.). You continue to respond with failed solutions that, frankly, make no sense. This issue is obviously not on the client side, but a problem with your servers and algorithms ceasing to update. It's unrealistic to think that customers who have had Daily Mixes update throughout the time they've had an account SUDDENLY stop listening to different songs that would FREEZE the algorithm and they'd no longer get ANY updates for Daily Mixes. Please stop telling customers to uninstall the app, or clear the cache, or listen to different types of music. That's not the issue and those "solutions" don't help. Please fix this issue at the account level or watch as we all head off to Apple Music where we don't have the threat of deleting our accounts and trying to rebuild years of listening data because your backend systems had a problem. Please stop blaming the customer and fix your own tech.

Update to my situation: it seems to have fixed itself almost 6m later. 

Nei mix non si aggiornano le canzoni

I got so fed up with the mixes being the same recycled songs over and over(of which I had never favorited any of those songs) that I cancelled my subscription. Now my mixes are stuck and won't refresh at all. Pretty pathetic.

the workaround doesnt help at all

That's a complete nonsense and a lie, I'm having the same problem for almost half a year, and cache clearing and app reinstalling DOES NOT HELP

This solution still doesn’t work.

My Question or Issue

Why call it Daily Mix when none of mine have changed in 10 days?
