Every journey needs an epic soundtrack. When you’re on the road, it’s easy to bring Spotify along for the ride.

Spotify App Download Free
New updates are being added to this story at the bottom of the story
Original story (from 2019) follows:
Before music streaming went popular, most of the people had relied on MP3 downloading websites. They kept on downloading pirated content without even realising it. Fast forward to today, you can legally stream music for free.
Only when you want to experience ad-free playback wi th added benefits will you have to go for paid subscriptions. To recall, the history of music streaming began with Internet Underground Music Archive aka IUMA in January 1993.
Then came Napster, SoundCloud, and Spotify with enhanced vision and features. Of these, the third one became synonymous with music streaming within years of its release. Available in 79 countries around the globe, it offers unlimited free streaming with limited features.
But, when you become a paid customer, you get more functionalities. Or at least, that’s what you expect! However, many unfortunate users can’t even establish an active connection to the internet on Spotify’s Android and iOS applications.
Android Spotify Connections Notification
According to a Redditer, the app says ‘no internet connection available’ on Samsung Galaxy S9+ even when the network indicator is full with mobile data turned on. And, whitelisting Spotify on the battery saver didn’t reverse the scenario.
Going through the comments under the post, we got to know the issue isn’t exclusive to Android. There are many concerned iOS users, suffering from the same problem. In addition, routing to Twitter got us even more complaints.
Sick of not being able to play music on my phone because Spotify constantly says ‘no internet connection’, even though I can get onto everything else (Facebook etc) fine! Time to cancel my subscription i think, I’m not getting anything for it!

We have even seen a few 1-star reviews on Google Play. And, the users are so frustrated with this error that they want to switch to a better streaming service. Hopefully, Spotify will pay heed to the customers’ outcries and fix the bug soon.
Keeps going out. Won’t play songs. Says no internet connection. I have full signal. I’ll rate again with a better review when the issue is fixed. Till then, pandora is looking nice from where I’m sitting.
