It seems to be working fine.

That also seems to happen on my device I can't find the exact reason when that occurs
(It occurs when i switch music rapidly like one after another/ playing a playlist for a certain {little long time} then switching song in or out of the play list) Sometimes it happens sometime it does not
but I have a quick fix just exit/ force close the app and reopen it. That should fix it temporarily.

I have similar issue which should be the spotify returns "too many requests". I think it may be the api returns http 429 and the client can't handle it. But I'm not familiar with spotify api so I have no idea about it.

[KRTirtho]

Spotify API isn't related with this because as soon as we get track from Spotify, it tries to fetch the Audio source when you click play.

I have checked the log, it returns "Too many requests" from package spotify. You may refer to the screenshot.

My problem is the home screen can't load the "Genres".

And I check spotify api doc, I think the app has reached spotify api rate limited.

I'm not sure if it's my network problem, are our settings the same?
