Spotify is down, it's not just you

The music-streaming app Spotify is down, leaving millions of music fans in the lurch. The company is aware of an issue and says it’s checking things out. To that end, we don’t know why it’s down or how long the service will remain unavailable. It looks like both the app and web client aren’t working right now. We’re aware of some issues right now and are checking them out!— Spotify Status (@SpotifyStatus) April 16, 2025 In the meantime, feel free to check out the millions of songs on YouTube, or slide into a rival service like Apple Music or Tidal. Alternatively, you could always just hum to yourself or call an old friend. We’ll update this post when we know more about what’s going on or when it’s back.
