iOS 7 - "Slide to unlock" pauses song (Reinstalled app - FIXED)

Sorry if this is an issue that has been brought up earlier...

 

When I play a song in spotify (on iPhone 4s) and the screen is locked and I "slide to unlock" it.

Spotify automatically pauses the song I was listening to.

 

WTF is up with that? iOS bug? Spofity bug? Or is it just a stupid feature?

 

Cheers!

Works fine for me on ios 7 (iphone 5), maybe this is one of thise sporadic ones or affecting only some users?

What's a Spotify Rock Star, and how do I become one?

Yeah, this works fine for me too! 

Have you tried fully restarting your device by holding the lock and home buttons together until the apple logo appears on the screen?

I had the same problem on iOS 7 with an iPhone 5 and I reinstalled it then let my phone die and it was fine. Just remember to let your phone die periodically so it can reset itself and you'll be fine ๐Ÿ‘

You can always force a reboot by holding the home and lock buttons together until the apple logo appears on screen. ๐Ÿ˜‰
