How I block people from using my spotify??

[rachelcg99]

I live in a student village and there are people connecting to my spotify with their PS4s and using my spotify!! How can I block them from connecting??

How exactly are they connecting to your Spotify? I think they can only connect to your Spotify IF they know your login details?

Well this is actually my roommates problem, but she says they are able to connect without her consent, probably over the shared WiFi in our apartment block. Shes def not allowing them access knowingly, but they are able to play her music for free which we dont think is fair.

Is there a feature to block people from connecting?

No, I don't think there is. On the other hand, she may be able to force sign out her account on other people's devices. The real question here is how they are connecting to her account. Is it possible her account was hacked? Is she using Facebook to log in to Spotify?

She could also check if there are devices under her Offline Devices (https://www.spotify.com/uk/account/offline-devices/) she doesn't recognize (e.g., if there's a Mac laptop in there but she doesn't use one). Also worth checking may be the Apps page (https://www.spotify.com/uk/account/apps/), if people are connecting via PS4 then there might be a Playstation app listed in here which she could revoke access to.
