My Question or Issue

After the earbuds disconnect due to Bluetooth range, the playback does not pause and continues to play loudly on the phone's speaker. I would like it to automatically pause when the connection is lost. Is it a bug? How can I fix it?

Hey @good2see,

Thank you for reaching out here in the Community.

We'd suggest that you try to disconnect and connect your headphones again to see if you'll experience the same.

It's also a good idea to perform a clean reinstall of the app to make sure you have the latest version and that any outdated files are removed. Give your device a quick restart as well before you open the newly installed app.

If none of the above steps solve it - we can assume that it's most probably a device specific and you can try checking the phone and headphone settings.

Hope this helps.

My Question or Issue

A quick Google results in many of us with the same issue: when removing our Bluetooth headphones, music continues to play directly from the phone itself.

If I use AirPods for example, I remove one headphone, music stops. I remove both headphones, music still off. I put them in the case music starts. 

Apple says this is a Spotify app issue. Please fix, it’s horribly annoying.
