Spotify App Login Loop

1) log into spotify. 2) enable offline mode (Settings - Offline mode) 3) close down spotify using your preferred method. 4) launch spotify (credentials should be saved at this point) 5) disable offline mode. Credentials should be saved now and survive across reboots. This is on spotify. I'm also unable to login via facebook (and unable to get the premium via mobile app since i need to change my credit card data). Trying to log in by web player just hangs in there (the loading icon appears and nothing happens). Same stuff happens when I'm trying to log in into the spotify.com website. I'm using Chrome on Windows 8.1. I'm also unable to login via facebook (and unable to get the premium via mobile app since i need to change my credit card data).

Long awaited: Tired of lugging around your clunky iPhone to listen to music on a jog or while exercising? Relief is here. The watchOS Spotify app is finally getting standalone playback. The beta feature will begin a slow rollout to Apple Watches starting today.

On Wednesday, Spotify announced that it is rolling out standalone streaming on the Apple Watch. Now users can listen to music or podcasts straight from their wrist without being tethered to their phone. With Siri voice control, which it introduced back in April, it should be easy and convenient to operate the app while exercising.

There are a few requirements to use the feature. Of course, since you won't be relying on your phone, the watch must have access to a stable WiFi or cellular signal. You also need a set of Bluetooth headphones paired with your Apple Watch.

While the Spotify watchOS app does work on all generations of Apple Watch, standalone playback is only available on Series 3 or later. You will also need to be updated to at least watchOS 6.0. However, Spotify recommends watchOS 7.1+ to enjoy full functionality.

Untethered playback has been a highly requested feature for quite some time, but Spotify only recently took up the challenge. 9to5Mac notes that the company first started testing it back in September with just a handful of users.

Even though standalone streaming is now available to a broader swath of users, it still in beta, so Spotify has it on a slow rollout. If you are not lucky enough to have the update yet, be patient.

Spotify Log In Account Music

With a Google account login for Spotify in place of a traditional account, you’ll be able to save yourself from another password. There are no direct benefits to the integration aside from that and a bit of added security, however.

From what we can tell, this feature is live now on Android and the web, but not on the iOS or Windows clients. That’s something to be wary of if you’re planning to take advantage of this new login method.

Another thing worth noting is that you can’t go from a traditional Spotify account to this new Google login option.

You can’t currently connect an existing account to Google.
