Spotify on iOS "connecting..." for a very long time on my home WiFi network

Hello,

I have searched and haven't been able to find a post with the exact problem I have. Spotify on my home network takes very long to connect on the iOS app. The app loads fine, but I see "connecting..." for always at least a whole minute (sometimes more) before I can finally load songs. I use a Chromecast Audio so this is very tedious when I want to skip or change a song since I have to load the app and wait every time.

 

Things to note:

  • This ONLY occurs on the iPhone app. Friends with iPhones on my WiFi have the same issue with Spotify. My desktop version of Spotify connects normally. I unfortunately don't have an Android phone to test.
  • This only occurs when I am connected to my WiFi. The app connects normally when I'm at my parents', work, or anywhere else, including using cellular data.
  • This only occurs with Spotify. I get roughly 30mbps and all other apps connect quickly.

I'll add any more bullets if I think of anything.

Please help! Thanks!
