Anyone else notice Spotify app is practically unusable at times?

Or is it just me? Are they having issues? I click to play a song, need to click like 20x and the song doesn’t even appear to be selected. Just overall glitchy. I use Spotify so much it’s a shame.

Same for me OP. Sometimes UX acts weirdly and just overall the performance is somehow dropped.

I had experienced in the weekend when I tried to play songs in an album. It always goes to a different song from a different album after completing the first

I’ve experienced some issues on the iOS app such as recommendations being awful and playlists being flat out wrong in terms of what I listen to, and the web version of Spotify is slow, clunky and loads playlists incorrectly. The app will sometimes stop the “hands-free listening” feature where music plays in the background while app is still loading, though I think that’s more of an iOS issue than Spotify itself. I absolutely detest the way Spotify attempts to push certain genres of music in your recommended playlists. I will never listen to rap, pop or other generic modern music, but it insists on showing it in spite of me constantly clicking on the hide this playlist function. There needs to be a permanent “Do Not Recommend” feature that hides entire genres, artists and playlists from appearing in my feed and randomly on my FYP. TC: 90K, in the top 3% of Spotify listeners for 2022

I deleted Spotify because it kept pushing all the trash outrage peddling podcasts

Glad to know I’m not the only one suffering through an unresponsive Ux

Have never experienced this; i use on iPhone. If anything, Spotify is probably one of the most stable apps i use.
