my current spotify peeve: hitting play when I have no connectivity results in.... nothing. Absolutely nothing. No discernable activity of any kind.
Disabling wifi & data works, but just being without an active connection - such as when underground or something - and wanting to play some music or a podcast that is on the device already just doesn't seem to occur to spotify as a valid scenario.
- Workaccount2 3y agoI have been dealing with this for about a year now. I listen on my motorcycle while out in the sticks often, and because service is so spotty, I keep a huge library local on my device. However I don't put it in offline mode since often enough I do have service. Once I get that "No internet connection available" message, the amount of coaxing to get it to play locally saved music is insane. Usually it is some combo of app restarts, toggling "offline mode", and toggling airplane mode on my phone that will eventually get it to play. Spotify. Please figure out the surely 5 lines of code that would fix this. I'm sure this bug even predates my finding of it.
