Thanks for the response and shared details, @Shura17.   We hope you don't mind that we merged your thread with the already existing one on the topic where you had posted, in order to keep better track of the situation.   We've also reported this behavior internally, so that the relevant team can take a look. Unfortunately we can't give you an ETA for a fix/change, but if/when there are any updates on the matter, we'll make sure to let you know here in the thread.   We understand that it's important for you that the repeat function stays on while you're listening to your calming playlist and for the time being what we can suggest is to make sure that autoplay is turned off in Spotify's settings, so that random songs are prevented from playing. Additionally, you can also queue the playlist a few times to ensure it will repeat - click on the three dots > Add to Queue.    Hopefully these steps are helpful to you in the meantime and we remain just a post away if there's anything else we can assist you with.   Take care! ...

Hey @chaymaa12345,   Thanks for joining the thread!   The feature started being rolled out globally (for users on the free version, as well as for users on Premium), but as this is still in progress, it may not be available in certain countries at the moment or for some users. As it's a new feature, you shouldn't see the history of followings before it was released and as we previously mentioned, updates there will be stored for a maximum of 90 days.   Hope this info helps clear things up and we remain here if you've got any other questions 🙂 ...

Thanks for the quick response @Cotee504.   We've passed this on internally and it would be very helpful if you could send us your iPhone's OS-version and the exact Spotify-version that you're using.   Additionally it'd be great if you could even include a video of the behavior. You can either attach it to your next response via the Insert Video option in the post editor or upload it to Google Drive and share the link with us.   Many thanks! ... View more

Hey @Cotee504,   Thanks for posting in the thread!   If you haven't already, could you make sure that there aren't any pending OS-updates on your device and also that you've given Spotify a clean reinstall with the steps here? Make sure you've also disabled any battery saving options as suggested previously in the thread. As this behavior should've been fixed a while ago, it's worth performing these troubleshooting steps just in case.   If the behavior persists, it'd be helpful if you could share some more details as to what you're experiencing exactly, as well as share your device's make, model, OS-version and the Spotify-version you're running.   In the meantime, we're here if anything else comes up. ...

Hey @Dudey38,   Thanks for reaching out via the Community! We hope you don't mind that we moved your thread to the Android section of the Help board as it better fits here, and the one you had originally posted in was about iOS devices.   To get a better understanding of the situation, we'd like to gather some additional details. Let us know: Did you notice when this behavior occurred for the first time (was it after something specific such as a software update for example)? Is it a specific app's notifications that are causing the interruption? Only a specific Bluetooth device? The exact Android-version you're running on your device. Lately we can't say that we've noticed similar issues in the forum and it's great that you've already performed some troubleshooting steps.    Something worth mentioning is that in general, the Android OS ensures there's only one app playing sound through an audio stream at a time via something called audio focus, so perhaps there is another app that invokes priority when you receive a notification, which causes it to pause the playback. Let us know if perhaps there's another app you've installed which may be interfering.   Appreciate the cooperation and we'll be on the lookout.   ... View more

Hey @avyon,   Thanks for posting in the Community! We hope you don't mind that we've moved your thread to the Other section of the Help board as it better fits here.   According to this article from the Artists' page, in order to add links to an artist profile you'd have to log in to the website - artists.spotify.com.    Here in the forum we're more focused on assisting with issues related to the regular Spotify app. In any case, you mentioned that adding links works via the website, but for further help from the Artists' team and the related app it's best to reach out to them. You can do so here.   We're just a post away if there's anything else we can do for you 🙂 ... View more

Hey @natdebi,   Thanks for posting in the thread!   No worries, you shouldn't be charged twice, only make sure that you're logged in to the correct account that you'd like to upgrade from Individual to Family.    Would you mind sharing some screenshots of where you're able to click 'Get Started' and if you're able to continue after selecting Family as an option? You can attach them via the Insert Image option in the post editor (double-check that no sensitive info is visible such as your subscription date or username for example).   We'll be on the lookout. ...

Hey folks,   Thank you for posting and sharing your details of this behavior with us.    It's possible that what you're experiencing with the playback in reverse order is happening to other users as well where we're investigating. However, for clarification we'd first like to gather some more info.    Let us know: Is this happening exclusively with podcasts, or with songs as well? Is it happening when listening to both? Have you enabled Smart Shuffle when this behavior occurs? We'll be on the lookout and remain here if anything else comes up in the meantime.   @snlzkn @Omnijuno55 @shmightworks  ... View more

Hello @RagBra,   Thanks for posting in the forum! We hope you don't mind that we've moved your post to the Desktop Windows section as it better fits here.   To get a better understanding, could you let us know if you noticed when this issue occurred for the first time and if it was after something specific (an update for example)?   There's some steps to try if you've not already done so to test if they'll make a difference: Another network connection - you could share mobile data via hotspot if it's possible (make sure to restart your router as well). Clean reinstall which often helps resolve different performance issues. Download the app from our website or the Microsoft Store (they can have different behavior). Test if the behavior persists in the web player. Appreciate the cooperation and we'll be on the lookout for your response. ... View more

Hey @Vaughan4n,   Thanks for posting in the thread!    As it's been some time since we've seen posts here, it would be helpful if you could share all of the steps that you've already tried, such as: Make sure that you've reinstalled the app. You're using the newest firmware updates. Another network connection (Wi-Fi, mobile data). It'd be great if you could share as many details of the behavior as possible, as well as let us know if you've noticed in case this occurred after something specific for the first time.   Lastly, feel free to include a video so we can see how things look like from your end. You can attach it here via the Insert Video option in the post editor or upload the video to Google Drive and share the link with us.   We'll be on the lookout. ... View more

Hey @Mcs2243,   Thanks for posting in the thread!   As there can be some corrupted cache causing issues I recommend performing a clean reinstall with the steps here. One user mentioned that this helped them download in lossless quality so it's worth going for it if you've not already done so.   Also, make sure to set the download settings to Lossless > at the very bottom of the Media quality tab under Download quality.   Keep us posted 🙂 ...

Hey folks,   We really appreciate your patience while we looked into this issue!   We've received an update that this should be fixed with version 9.0.98.1187, so make sure to keep Spotify updated to the latest version.    Let us know if this issue is fixed for you after updating the app and if you're still having any trouble, make sure to post a new thread in the relevant help board here.   Thanks! ...

Hey @Parax,   Thanks a lot for providing us with these videos and links to the podcasts.   We had a look and we'd like to point out that currently, it's unfortunately not possible to sort podcast episodes on the podcast's main page on the web player and on some other devices like in your case - within the car app. We're always looking for ways to improve and offer better functions to our users and there's actually other users that would like these sorting options to be available in the web player. With this said, you can check out and add your vote to this existing Idea in order to show your support.   We previously stated that when viewing a podcast page, the episodes should be sorted by "Newest" by default, however, this also depends on the podcast creators who have the ability to choose how their episodes are displayed for users. This would explain why the podcast "A Problem Squared" displays the oldest episodes first on the main page.   There's something else worth mentioning. As a workaround you can use the Connect feature. On a mobile device, go to the podcast's main page, sort the episodes from Newest to Oldest, play an episode on the phone and then choose the web player or the app in your car to continue streaming the playback there. We know that this might not be ideal for you, but for the time being you can give it a try if you've not already done so.   We hope this info helped clear things up and don't hesitate to let us know if you've got any other questions.   Take care! ...
