Spotify goes down: What we know, plus our favorite alternatives to try
Briefly

Today, Spotify users reported significant streaming issues across the app and web player, with many expressing frustration on social media. By 9am ET, Spotify acknowledged the problem, stating they were investigating the situation. Reports peaked at around 50,000 entries on DownDetector.com, although the number declined later as user fatigue set in. Speculation swirled about a possible hack, but SpotifyStatus clarified that this was not the case. While the exact cause remains unclear, users seeking alternatives can turn to services like Apple Music or YouTube Music.
Earlier this morning, social media was flooded with frustrated comments as users began reporting issues with streaming music on the popular service.
Spotify confirmed the issue just before 9am ET, writing on X, 'We're aware of some issues right now and are checking them out!'
