Spotify service goes down…again.
Today (June 22nd) Spotify has been experiencing technical difficulties, causing the streaming service to go down in areas of the UK, US and others places across the world, leaving users unable to stream music.
Though the app allowed users to listen to music that was saved for offline playback, the service didn’t allow users to stream any music that required an internet connection. Users instead were faced with disabled features and a black bar at the bottom of the screen that read ‘connecting’.
The service wasn’t down for long, but long enough for Spotify users to take to social media outlets to share their annoyance and frustration with the service. But, Spotify quickly stepped in by tweeting a post to let their users know that they are ‘investigating some issues’, and working on getting the service up-and-running again.
Spotify quickly acknowledged that they were experiencing ‘some issues’, and worked to get those issues resolved quickly. The service announced Monday (June 20th) that they had hit 100 million active users. Though a large proportion of these users were hit with the frustration of not being able to stream music earlier, the service is now back up-and-running for most subscribers.
