Not getting notifications about new podcast episodes even though I have them turned on

[Anirog]

Hi, In Spotify settings I have 'New Episode Notifications' turned on for 3 podcasts, all was working fine until a few days ago, now when there is a new podcast episode I don't get a notification.

I have notifications turned on in settings on my iPad and iPhone (see screenshot)

Has anyone else noticed this issue?

Hey @Anirog,

Thanks for posting in the Community.

Just to be sure this setting is working across different accounts, could you try receiving a notification for a new episode with a new account on your device?

Also make sure you're not blocking the notifications from your device itself.

Let us know how that went,

Cheers!

Hi Dian, thanks for your reply, notifications are working again for me now, I didn't create a new account, I guess it was just a temporary blip.

I am running Spotify on an iPhone with the latest version of iOS installed. I update Spotify to its latest version always.

I have the notification bell activated for a bunch of podcasts and Spotify is allowed to sent me notifications via iOS settings.

The problem is, however, that I do not receive notifications for new episodes.

I asked Google and came up with nothing helpful so far. This is what I tried on my device with some success (more on that later):

1. Logging out of Spotify on my iOS device.
2. Offloading the Spotify application.
3. Deleting the Spotify application.
4. Rebooting my device.
5. Re-installing Spotify.

This helps for a day or so. After that, no more notifications.
