Spotify is slow on Android, but there's an easy fix while the company works on a real solution

Why your Spotify app suddenly feels so slow, and what actually works to speed it up

Spotify is slow on Android, but there's an easy fix while the company works on a real solution

Some Spotify users on Android have reported that the app is taking longer than usual to perform tasks. According to Android Authority, several users have experienced severe loading delays, UI freezing, and stopped background playback, with issues affecting mid-range and flagship phones alike.

Reinstalling the app has provided relief to some users, and a Spotify community moderator has acknowledged these user reports. The performance issues seem to be specific to the Android app, as users have reported that the iOS and PC apps are running smoothly.

The issues have been reported by multiple users on platforms like Reddit, with one user noting that the app has taken longer and longer to load over the past month on their Galaxy S21 FE, and has lagged when searching for and selecting playlists and artists.
