When talking about the fall of a service, you always have in mind that WhatsApp or Telegram are the applications that can fall. But today the thing is quite different since the service that is failing is Spotify and only on iOS. In this article we tell you all the details that are known as well as the alternatives that exist.
Spotify crashes only on iOS
Spotify is a well-known streaming music service thanks to the good repertoire of songs and artists within the service. Unfortunately right now it is down as many users have reported through social networks. This is a bug that is currently only occurring in the iOS operating system and does not affect Android. At first it was thought that it could be related to the second beta of iOS 14, but finally it has become clear that it is related to all versions of iOS.
From Spotify they have reported through their Twitter account that they are aware of the failure that has occurred. Apparently it is an unknown error that is being investigated at the moment and it should be observed how it evolves. On the Downdetector website you can clearly see all the users who are experiencing this failure. The most common problems reported by users are related to logins. Although the focus of reports is much more present in Europe, the failure seems to be in different parts of the globe. It is probably a problem related to servers although the fact that it continues to work normally on Android leaves the possibility that this is not the problem. But it cannot be ruled out that in a few hours the error will spread to the rest of the platforms.
Alternatives to Spotify on iOS
Once the service has fallen in the Apple operating system, users demand the search for alternatives to continue playing music without limits and without ads. The most comfortable mode is undoubtedly through Apple Music, which has a very extensive repertoire of songs. Among the differences between Spotify and Apple Music, this problem of the number of songs stands out, but also other aspects such as aesthetics or multiplatform.
Another service that you can take into account is undoubtedly Tidal . This iOS application has been gaining a lot of strength in recent months thanks to the number of songs it includes. But above all, the quality of the songs stands out a lot by offering a much more optimal transmission. Little by little, it is gaining a place in a market that is highly collapsed.
Finally Google also includes a music service that is integrated into YouTube. It will allow you to play all the songs in an unlimited way without any type of announcement. This does not happen in the free version where different video clips can be played but weighing the reproduction of different ads.
