It’s not uncommon for popular apps to crash in beta. However, Spotify’s latest update on Android devices has been unusable since the weekend due to crashing issues. Users reported that the app crashed immediately after opening it.
Spotify Android app is experiencing crash issues
The latest beta version of the Spotify app (8.9.2.169) reportedly has significant bugs. According to Android owners, the app fails to fully launch and closes within a few seconds of opening.
This frustrates users who want to listen to music on Spotify, browse playlists or connect to services like Android Auto. According to the complaints, none of these functions are possible in the beta.
The problems were first reported on December 30. Since the weekend, complaints on platforms like Twitter show that the crash continues. It should be underlined that there is no fix from Spotify yet.
According to users, classic troubleshooting steps such as uninstalling and reinstalling the app do not work. However, you can leave the Spotify beta program, upgrade to the stable version and access Spotify by installing the stable app version from Google Play.
Spotify has not yet acknowledged the issue. This raises questions about when a fix will be released for the affected 8.9.2.169 beta on Android. Let’s see when the company will make an official statement on the issue.
