Hey @Steffankammeyer, I'll be happy to help.

 

When you first leave the Spotify app - it is still open. When you close the app (double press the home button and slide up on the app) that's when you won't see it from the Lock Screen.

 

Could you also let me know your device name, and iOS version? 

 

Keep me posted 🙂

But cant it be done without closing the app?

Hey @Steffankammeyer.

 

Could you make sure that Background App Refresh is turned off by going to Settings > GeneralBackground App Refresh and turn off Background App Refresh?

 

Also, when you first leave the Spotify app - you'll still see the music on the lock screen in case you change your mind and want to play shortly. After a while, it should close by itself after inactivity.

 

Let me know how this goes 🙂
