Why are random songs playing while I'm listening to my playlist/podcasts.

[#1]

When I listen to my playlist and podcasts, spotify starts playing random songs that I don't know at any point during a song or podcast. It is happening more and more frequently. It says 'listening on Ki's phone' . I don't know who this is. I have tried to keep everything private and stop playback, unfollow people etc. How do I stop it from happening.

Hey there,

Thanks for posting in the Community and welcome. 

This is a very odd behavior indeed. In this case, we suggest you follow the steps you can find here to protect your account.

We additionally recommend to make sure Log in to your account page, scroll down, and select SIGN OUT EVERYWHERE. This way you’ll sign out from every device in which your account is open.
 

We recommend checking for anything suspicious on your Account Overview page and removing all apps connected to your account. You can easily reconnect the apps that you use whenever you want. If you notice anything suspicious you can remove it with the REMOVE ACCESS button.

Hope this helps. Keep us in the loop!

I had same issue but only log in on my phone app. Did everything suggested hopes it stops happening or I’ll have to cancel my subscription because I’m not paying for music not on my playlists to pop up.

I’m having this same issue and tried those things and it didn’t help. Now while I’m listening to a podcast, it will either randomly play a random song that’s not even on any of my playlists (or even by an artist I know) or it will skip to the next episode of the podcast I’m listening to.
