My Question or Issue

 

The lockscreen notification bar for Spotify started piling songs on top of each other, making it impossible to see what was playing. I restarted my phone, updated the app, closed and reopened Spotify 10 times, and now I'm stuck with a notification bar that shows the correct song but doesn't give the playback option to start or stop or skip the song.

Hi there,

 

Welcome to the Spotify Community!

 

Did you update your system UI or your OS recently? If you're using a theme, try disabling it temporarily and rebooting your device to see if that does the trick.

 

Something that's worth trying is going to Settings > Sound & vibration > Media > turning Show media on lock screen off/on > restarting your device. Make sure that Spotify isn't being restricted by your battery settings or any other performance optimizing apps you might be running.

 

Let us know how it goes.

 

Cheers 🤘
