Neither music nor podcasts play in the application

Update: Spotify has been pronounced to consider this fall resolved.

Spotify has stopped working for a large part of its users this afternoon. The platform of streaming has confirmed that it is investigating the problem, although without giving details about the cause at the moment.

The figures. Downdetector, the service that monitors platform falls, has registered more than 30,000 reports in a matter of minutes. It is one of the highest figures ever recorded for this type of incident.

The common symptom. Users cannot upload music or podcasts. Those who already had content playing can continue listening to it, but when pausing or changing songs they lose access.

The official communication. Spotify Status account on X has published a brief message: “We are aware of some issues and are reviewing them.” Spotify Cares account only redirects users to standard help articleswithout offering extra information.
