My Question or Issue

After updating to iOS 14, I’m unable to play Spotify to my UE Wonderboom Bluetooth speaker without the Spotify screen being open. If my screen times out or I switch to another app, Spotify will pause playing.

Hey @Laurencelicia, thanks for reaching out to the Community!

Could you try restarting your device? If that doesn't help, try a clean reinstall of the app following these steps.

If you're still having trouble, let me know what device this happens on, as well as the current software version.

Let me know how this goes!

The restart did the trick! Who knew this old phone just needed a lil nap! Thanks so much 🙂
