On Android and OS devices, an easy way to see if there's an update available is to open the App Store (iOS) or Play Store (Android) and search for "Spotify." If there's an update available, the download button will be marked Update. If you're having trouble with Spotify, make sure the app is up to date - if it hasn't updated in a while, you might be running an older version that has a bug or is now incompatible with other software on your device. As a reminder, here is how to close apps on Android and how to close apps on iPhone. If that is successful, then you can restart any apps you absolutely need to use at the same time as Spotify. In either case, the remedy is to try closing any other apps you're not currently using - or close all the other apps and see if Spotify starts to work. And as I log in without entering a password, chrome asks for a user keyring after booting, which is annoying.If Spotify isn't working for you, it might be because of a conflict with another app or because your device is running dangerously low on memory and there isn't enough space on the device to stream audio. The reason I chose firefox above chrome was the lack of an X for fullscreen mode, so kiosk mode on chrome was a no go. Whether I did something wrong or not, it was buggy and not functional. #3 I tried it once, and I never got it to work.

#2 if spotify runs perfectly fine on an already present browser, than why voluntarily waste hundreds of MBs of harddisk space? #1 it looks almost the same as the web player, so in that regard I don't see any advantages in using the app over a browser. Here are my reasons for why I don't use the spotify app. Is there not somekind of a checklist for checking default browser settings for scenario's like this?

The other thing I can think off, is that perhaps I surfed to a certain website which screwed with certain browser settings which broke something.

To fix this problem, go to the settings and disable battery-saving mode. And that's why it often crashes in the background due to lack of Ram and Space. Under low-power saving mode, the app slows down to work on a substandard level. The first of which is the low power-saving mode.

Or as a vulcan would put it: "it would be the most logical explanation". Ans: Spotify pauses in the background primarily due to two reasons. It is just my theory that spotify did something to their services like an update and I have to update firefox or something. I am now so I can't give hardware stats, I also don't get how that is relevant as it has worked perfectly fine for over a year.
