Spotify app crashes within 10 seconds if track starts and phone put to sleep whilst connected via 3G or WiFI.

 

If in offline mode, the bug doesn't exist.

 

Also, the app is incredibly slow.

with new spotify 1.4 it crashes when i hit search, search anything , and load song.

Spotify immediately closes.

it did not do this before 1.4

i don't think this has to do with it being jailbroken

Same problem with mine
iPhone 5
NOT jailbroken

Very frustrating. Wish updates worked properly before released.

@fantastic6 are you still experiencing crashing on the lastest iOS version? Please install the latest update and let us know how that works for you.

Same here. Play directly from search result = crash

The process seems to actually get suspended instead of closed.

Ios 6.1 Jailbroken

Iphone 4 -32G

Spotify 1.4.1.4

 

No matter if 3g, WiFi or both are on.

Clean install did not help.

 

Today it actually played about a second of a random search result i tried before it crashed. This happened only once. All other attempts result in crash.

ios 7.1.2 for the iphone 5s and it closes whenever i open the app i have tried closing the app and restarting my phone and nothing is working

I have the same ios version on 5s and does exactly the same thing. Closing the app and restrating the phone didn't help either. This is getting very frasturating now.

IOS 6.1.6

SPOTIFY VERSION: 1.4.1.4.

APPROX CRASH FREQUENCY: Every 10 mins of streaming online songs

IOS 7.1.2
iPad 4
Spotify crashes on my iPad when I try to add a song from search to a playlist.

My details:
IPHONE MODEL: 5s
IOS: 8 beta 4
SPOTIFY VERSION: 1.5.0
APPROX CRASH FREQUENCY: Instantly after login
JAILBROKEN: NO
PREMIUM SUBSCRIBTION: YES
After the 1.5.0 update, which automatically signed me out, the app just crashes after logging in. It loads after I put my correct details on but then crashes as it tries to load. Without an Internet connection it doesn't not crash.

So I am upset that  my spotify app wont even let me log in to my account. 

 

I have an iphone 4S iOS 7.1.2 and the app was working great until the last few days.

 

Every time I tried to log in with my username/password or facebook it would look like its loading and it just crashes.

 

I've tried deleting and redownloading the app, I've closed the app and reopened it, I've restarted my phone to see if there was any changes but nothing happened

 

If anyone has a solution to my problem, please let me know. Thanks a bunch.

I also had the same issue after downloading the latest version 1.5. I was talking with them about two weeks ago but they told me that they have not been able to replicate the issue. 

 

I am not sure if the developers and QA are doing a great job to make sure that all version, model, and firmware can run the app. I miss it using my iPhone. I hope they will release a new update to fix this one already. 

iPhone 5
NOT jailbroken
IOS 6.1.4
Spotify version 1.5.0
Crashes anytime I try to play a song of my choice.
Premium account

Definitely not interested in paying for a service I can't use.

My details:

IPHONE MODEL: 5

IOS: 7.1.1

SPOTIFY VERSION: 1.5.0.2728

APPROX CRASH FREQUENCY: Once every hour or so

JAILBROKEN: No

 

My Spotify crashes once every hour or so. Futhermore, when going from Wifi to 3G the music stops and the apps sometimes crashes. Plus, when the phone is locked, there is a signal (beeping) noise over the top of the music intermittently. Once unlocked the noise instantly stops. The only way to get rid of it is to quit the app and start again - very annoying. This noise happens once every hour or so too! The latter problem is solved by going into offline mode but this is obviously not ideal!

Phone: iPhone 5
iOS: 7.1.2
Spotify Version: 1.5.0
Crash Frequency: the moment i want to play a song
Jailbroken: No
Premium Subscription: Yes
I hope they solve it quick bc im paying for something that isnt working. Also the crash apparently only appears on Premium users, i tested it with a free account and that works perfect...
