Same here on my ipod 11.1.2. As well I notice that the sound is shaky and like fasforward when the ipod restart after the battery died. I've to kill the app and restart the app, then the sound come back to normal for a couple of minutes/hours.... ahhh battery. 

Hope the fix will be pushed very soon.

Ever since I updated to iOS 11 on my iPhone 5SE, Spotify has been extremely bad with battery drain. Playing 39mins of dowloaded music (Not even streaming) takes 16% of my charge. For comparison playing 4 hours of downloaded music on apple music app takes only 13%. Same volume and same headphones.

On top of that, the phone gets very hot when I’m listening to Spotify. These battery and heat issues have been consistent for the past weeks and are only for Spotify, not any other app. 

I have the lattest Spotify version. 

Moreover, I saw a post from another user reporting this issue that the moderators of the forum decided to close. Is this battery drain an issue that you are looking at it?

I like the Spotify service, but if this is not solved I will obviously have to cancel it.

I have the same problem. Have tried all the tricks, including reinstalling the software and turning off background refresh. Nothing has worked. I have an iPhone 7 with iOS 11. If I don't see a response from Spotify soon I will have to cancel. No other apps cause this problem, and it is always stopped when I close the app. The battery will completely drain in about 3 hours of play time, and will last for several days with my normal use.
