sleep timer on iOs for podcasts gone

[becca181181]

Hello, I noticed that my beloved sleep timer for podcasts in gone. Latest iOs, latest spotify app. How can I get it back? Or was it removed on purpose?
For music it is still there in the three dot menu. Bit for podcasts I used to have a little timer icon.
Best, Rebecca

Hey @Chocothecat,

Thanks for reaching out!

Just to confirm, do you notice any difference after restarting the app? We also recommend logging out from the app and back in again twice in a row, as this will make sure that the account info is up-to-date.

Let us know how you get on.

It went away again, but I signed out twice more and it's stayed ever since.

Make/model and OS of the affected devices: pixel 4a 5g Android 14

Exact Spotify version you're running there: 8.9.52.552

Does this happen no matter what podcast you open? Yes but the sleep time is there for music

Some screenshots of what you see from your side.

Did you notice if this started to happen after a specific event such as an OS update? If yes, please send us the details. I am not sure.

I have tried the clean redownload, login and log out many many times and the issue is not fixed. The sleep timer is still not there for podcasts

I tried to log out several times. I’ve cleared cache as well, but nothing works, the button is gone

Mine is there in the three dots menu but I want it back as a timer icon on the now playing screen.  I hate having to navigate when I’m half asleep, anyone know how to get it back as an icon?

Hi Lindsay. The OG-post was about a bug spotify had where the timer disappered. This time they moved the timer on purpose, I hate it too but it's better than no timer I suppose.

Hi, this post was about an earlier bug where the timer disappeared and came back after log out. This time though they actually moved the timer. Click on the three dots in the upper corner and you will find the timer there
