Is it revenge of the nerds all over again? We will just have to wait and see if the streaming giant issues any official communications.Spotify is down and users are reporting widespread problems. Additionally, users may be trying to attack Spotify, since they’ve been in the news for political issues earlier in the week. It is possible that this is only affecting some users, so be sure to check for yourself if the service is working, as this is unlikely to be a global outage for the service. Spotify appears to have some issues for some users using the service right now if Down Detector is to be believed. However, this kind of catastrophic failure of service is rare, so it’s likely to just be an affected portion of users, as we could expect to see many more reports reflected on Down Detector if this was the case. The engineers may need some time to roll the update back in order to ensure that they can get the service up and running again before fixing it, and trying to roll it out again.
The only way that the servers can cause a global outage is if an update has been rolled out, which has caused the server to behave strangely. So, it’s surely not only users that are sending false flags, but unfortunately, Spotify’s service status doesn’t tell us much either. Now, for users who are having trouble with Spotify, you just have to sit and wait it out until Spotify’s engineers can identify the potential issue that appears to be affecting a certain number of users, with over 965 reports coming in all at once. It is possible that Spotify is only down in certain regions, as it’s unlikely that a worldwide outage will occur, as we saw earlier this week with Amazon Alexa. Additionally, these kinds of issues can be localized dependent upon where the user is trying to access the servers are from. Spotify has not clarified as to whether or not the service is running, as their official Twitter account has yet to report or post any issues with any service delivery. Is Spotify down? Users have reported that the streaming service is reportedly having issues, according to Down Detector as of 3 PM GMT.
