My Question or Issue

My "Liked Songs" Playlist don't get loaded in the Car.

Android Built in is Android 10, Appversion of Spotify is 4.3.4.2 last reinstalled 30.04.23.

A week ago i realized that in the playlist "Liked Songs" not all songs have been loaded. Since two days the list does not get loaded at all.

Tried it over Bluetooth tethering and Wireless tethering, i have a 5G subscription with no data limitation and the connection of the phone is fine.

I tried sign off and on again, twice.

Deleted the cache first, retried it, deleted the data, retried it and after that, reinstalled the app from the Playstore.

On all other devices the playlist loads without any issue.

As you can see on the video, other Playlists work just fine, also the search work without any problems (Issues with "liked Songs" Playlist on Spotify with Google Buil In). At the moment there are 594 Songs on my "Liked Songs" Playlist. Any suggestions what to try next would be appreciated.

It is Google Built in / Google Automotive NOT Android Auto (the App).

Hey @Elerios,

Thanks for reaching out and kudos for the troubleshooting you've tried so far.

As a next step, can you please try logging in on a desktop device, adding the contents of your Liked songs to a new playlist (Ctrl/Cmd + A and then Add to playlist) and checking if the issue persists with the new playlist?

To narrow down the possible cause further, it would also be helpful if you can ask a friend or a family member to log into their account in the car and see if they get the same behavior.

Keep us posted.

Hello @MihailY

Thank you for the input and sorry for the delay in responding.

Tried what you mentioned and it worked, the playlist is loading.

Can i delete the songs on my liked songs list and copy paste them back?

Hey @Elerios,

Thank you for keeping in contact!

This process can be easily done on the desktop app. You just need to select all the songs from the playlist you want using CTRL + A or by clicking on the first song, holding the shift key and pressing the arrow down. Once you have all the tracks selected, you can drag them to your Liked Song.

Note: keep in mind that if you delete the current tracks and add the ones from the playlist, the order will change as they'll keep today's date as date added. However, you can still sort them in a different way using the Sort button.

Hope this helps. If you have any additional questions, don't hesitate to ask.

Hey @OscarDC

Just for my better understanding, if i delete the Songs from my "liked Songs" playlist (the Songs with the hearts), can i readd them by copy the whole list back to my "liked Songs" from another list, and the hearts will be "reactivated"?

Thank your for the support.

Hey @Elerios,

Thank you for keeping in contact.

That's correct! If you empty your Liked songs list and drag all the songs from another playlist to it, they will get the heart filled automatically. However, keep in mind that this action can only be made in the Desktop app since the mobile version doesn't have the option to multi-select tracks yet.

Hope this clarifies things a bit and remember that we'll be here if anything else comes up!

Have a nice one 🙂

Hi @oscarDC

Thank you for the clarification.

Will do this with the Desktop version and try after in the car if it worked.

regards and happy day
