Only Shuffle mode on Tablet (Nexus 7 2013)

Only Shuffle mode on Tablet (Nexus 7 2013)

From time to time (can't figure out why) Spotify doesn't allow to pick a song to play. Only Shuffle available... I'm on Nexus 7 2013 running Android 6.0.1 and even tried the Spotify Beta version, but didn't help

Hey @jplinhares,

 

Are you using the Free version? Spotify may think your Nexus 7 is a phone, and that's what makes it play in random mode only.

Yup, it is 7 inches. Is there any solution?

Hmmm. That's odd - last time I checked my wife's N7 (2013) she was able to select songs with a free account. Let me check later when I get home.

I just sent this to spotify support to see if there's something I can do. I don't know how, but the previous times this happened, it fixed itself, but it is very odd...

 

"I have an Asus Nexus 7 2013, with a free account, but from time to time it only allows shuffle play. What can I do? I though it could be that the permissions were all off, but cleaned all data from app, granted all permissions, and still, it didn't work..."
