The music-streaming app Spotify is down, leaving millions of music fans in the lurch. The company is aware of an issue and says its checking things out. To that end, we dont know why its down or how long the service will remain unavailable. It looks like both the app and web client arent working right now.
Were aware of some issues right now and are checking them out! Spotify Status (@SpotifyStatus) April 16, 2025
At about 10:40AM ET, Spotify updated its X account saying it was working on the issue and also said that "the reports of this being a security hack are false." We haven't seen any such reports yet, but we'll keep an eye on things to see if they offer any more details on this front.
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. Well update this post when we know more about whats going on or when its back.
