It’s quick, easy, and free to update Spotify on your PC.

If this is the case, update your app to the latest version, and your issue will be fixed. Your “Something went wrong” may have resulted from an outdated Spotify app version.

Like all other apps, Spotify experiences various app bugs, resulting in multiple error messages. If that fixes the issue, talk to your VPN provider and seek their assistance for a permanent fix to your problem. You can disable the service in most VPN apps by selecting the toggle on the app’s main screen.

In this case, turn off your VPN service and see if that fixes the issue. Such a service transmits your data via a middle server, causing issues with certain internet-enabled apps. In this case, wait for a while, and your problem should likely be fixed.Ī possible reason Spotify can’t connect to the streaming servers is that you’re using a VPN service. One thing to note: the redesign does not fix the Spotify ‘missing artwork’ issue in the GNOME Shell message tray.If you notice a tweet mentioning an issue, that may be why you can’t use the Spotify app on your PC. But the redesign will benefit users new to Spotify.

The service could provide a potato of a UI and chances are I’d still use it. I can access most of music (and lots more) through Spotify for free (which is still crazy). I have a couple 100GBs of music on an external hard-drive but it’s been years since I truly relied on it. If you run a slightly older version of the desktop Linux client you may also get the new UI - whether you want it or not! We have a guide showing you how to install Spotify on Ubuntu if you need it. This change is a server-side one, so can’t just install an update to get it.
