So, Spotify keeps crashing during a listen to any song. It’s been crashing at random intervals of the song; the first few times it kept crashing at 0:45 seconds in, then 1:45 in, but the one consistent part was when I opened the app, the song always started at 0:03 seconds in, and not at the beginning.
Now, for the troubleshooting.
Yes, I have restarted the app. I have deleted all downloaded songs and redownloaded them. I have turned off and then on my phone, I have uninstalled the app completely, I signed out of the app and signed back in. I don't know what else to do. I really like Spotify.
Hey @Richyman,
Help’s here!
In case a regular reinstall didn't do the trick for you it's a good idea to try a clean reinstall of the Spotify app. This step is way more thorough in terms of removing corrupted data from previous installations that could be causing the crash.
If the issue persists, try disabling any power saving or data cleaning settings on your mobile device. Make sure you try this since such features can often prevent the app from operating at full capacity.
Keep us posted! We'll be here if you have any questions.
Howdy @Ivan!
Apologies for the delay. I did follow the clean reinstall, followed every step of the way. I even signed out of my profile on both Spotify AND my iPhone for safety measures. I reinstalled the app, and only downloaded one playlist to listen offline. For 7-8 days, it worked fine, but the problem came right back immediately afterwards. I do have some notes to plot down:
Help me Ivan, you're my only hope. Sorry if this was really long, I wanted to go in detail about the problem. I love Spotify a lot, and I'm not ready to cancel anything with them.
