My Question or Issue

So the app is presenting a very strange pattern of misbehaviors that is escalating. 

It started a few days back when the "Now playing" screen froze randomly although music playback and controls worked as expected: you could hear, pause and skip music even with the screen frozen buttons or with the phone buttons. It was solvable by restarting the app. 

I then installed the latest Samsung required update. 

Then the issue kept happening more often.

Yesterday I updated Spotify via Google Play. 

Now it's pausing randomly and my 700+ liked songs are all gone.

My "On repeat" playlist shows that I have liked songs, but none is shown in the Liked Songs section.

I recently connected Spotify with my galaxy watch active 1, so it could be related, but I just uninstalled the app on the watch and the problems keep happening at the point that the app is now completely unusable. 

I'll be happy to provide any further information. 

Thanks!
