Daily Mixes randomly restart from the beginning

Solved!

Daily Mixes randomly restart from the beginning

At least two of my Daily Mixes will randomly restart from the beginning of the playlist when listening on my iPhone 7 Plus.  It's a very annoying "feature."  Any ideas on how to fix/troubleshoot?  Happened multiple times today during a 1 hour workout.

Not sure if this is still a problem for people. I updated the app today and no longer having this issue.

Try reinstalling the app or if that even work then start a new account. Well for me the 1st option worked fine though

Reinstallation didn't solve the problem. I'm not sure what a new account
would do.

Try to use spotify on other device and check wheather its working properly or not .If yes then try to reset the device.

I have the same problem, but have found it's not random. I've discovered that whenever I click to remove a song from the mix the playlist restarts and plays the songs I just listened to again. This never used to happen and have only noticed it since the most recent update. Has become extremely annoying. 

After further investigation I've found some more information.

 

It appears this issue is only present on my iPhone 7 plus running iOS 10.3.2 and Spotify app version 8.4.3.884. I cannot replicate the same issue on my Windows 10 machine using the Spofity client. 

I think after spotify gets updated your issue will get resolved

Yep, you nailed it.  Now, I can easily reproduce the issue on multiple iOS 10.3.2 devices (iPhone 7 Plus, iPad Air 2, iPhone 6).  Steps to reproduce: 

  1. Start any Daily Mix. Song x will be first song on the list to play.
  2. Let n songs complete. 
  3. Dislike song n+1, immediately ending that song.
  4. Song n+2 will play as expected.
  5. Daily Mix restarts with song x. 

This behavior does not happen on my OS X (10.12.5) Spotify client.

The exact thing happens to me as well.  I'm running an iPhone 6s though.  Extremely annoying to simply remove a song you don't like and have the playlist start over from the beginning.  Needs to be fixed for sure.

I have the same issue and I haven't found a workaround for it
