My Question or Issue

My Spotify has recently begun crashing on the Now Playing view when I try to use certain features; full screen the lyrics, use the plus to add to new playlist or open the queue to edit it. I’ve tried to do a full reset or whatever it’s called where I fully remove the app deleting the cache etc. I originally only experienced it with one playlist, so I copied it into a new one and deleted the OG, but the problem then arose in that new one AND a different playlist. I’m presuming it’s the age of my phone (which is just a temp until I can afford a new one anyway) but it would be nice to have some clarity from the professionals.

Hey there @Hawkstajj! Thanks for posting and welcome!

Have you tried using the same account or opening the same playlist on a newer device to see if the issue might be device-related?

Feel free to share a screenshot or a quick video so we can get a closer look at what’s happening on your end.

Keep me posted!

Hiya! On my old phone which this one had to replace I didn’t experience the issue at all, and my PC still doesn’t have such issues so I’m sure it’s device based. I took a quick screen recording as an example if that can help diagnose the issue 🙂
