Howldy Dani_12!

There can be several reasons why Spotify might suddenly pause or skip songs. Some possible causes include issues with the Spotify installation on your device, being logged in on multiple devices, being in an area with poor cellular coverage, or having an unauthorized party gain access to your account.

Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:

• Reinstall the Spotify app on your device to see if that solves the issue.
• Log out of all devices that might be using your Spotify account.
• Lower the streaming quality if you are in an area with poor cellular coverage.
• Check your internet connection and see if it works while using other apps.
• Clear the Spotify cache on your device.

If none of these steps help, I suggest contacting Spotify’s customer support for further assistance.

I'll be doggone if I don't hear from you!
