So that's it ?
I mean, thanks for fixing it but... 24h without working and no explanation?
We have to be patient? Will you be patient if my credit card is not working when you bill next month?
Just wondering..

Fixed it! back to good music, thanks much.

Please help me as well - I have the same problem:

 

Spotify version: 2.2.0.2464

IOS 8.0.2

iphone 5S and iPad Air from 2014

Location: Denmark

 

I get this issue on the iOS version too; both on the iPad and iPhone.  

 

Basically everything is working fine and dandy then search wont return any results and I can't use the Goto Album or Artist features; just ... ... ...

 

I have to close the app and re-open it; then I'll be at the search results page and the results are there.

 

It's really aggrivating, sorry to be a whiney user.. i know the feels on your end.  Hopefully a solution is around the corner.

I'm on iPad version 2.7.0 release 3/23/2015 and it is still happening.  Thank you.
