How to Fix a Stuck Spotify Web Player with Ads

Are you tired of Spotify pausing intermittently while streaming music? One of the easiest ways to resolve this issue is by performing a system reboot. This simple step can help your Spotify app function smoothly again.

Additionally, you can try adjusting the streaming quality settings on your device. To do so, go to the Spotify app and tap on your profile picture or icon in the top-left corner. Then, select 'Audio Quality' and adjust it according to your connection speed and quality.

For instance, if you're using a Wi-Fi connection, you can set the audio quality to 'Automatic' or lower it to match your connection speed. If you're streaming music on cellular data, consider switching to a Wi-Fi connection for better results.

It's also important to note that not all connections are created equal. For lossless quality streaming, you'll need at least 2 Mbps download and 0.5 Mbps upload speeds. The next level is 320 kbps, which requires a 512 kbps upload/download speed, while the base level for music is 160 kbps and requires upload/download speeds of 384 kbps.

If your connection is poor, streaming higher audio quality may cause Spotify to occasionally pause playback to load the song you're playing. To avoid this issue, consider choosing from multiple quality levels to stream your music.

For Samsung device users, go to Settings > Connections > Data usage > Data saver and toggle off 'Turn on now.' On Android devices, go to Settings > Network & internet > Data Saver and turn off Data Saver.

Finally, we recommend turning off your device's data saver to stream Spotify without interruption. By following these simple steps, you can enjoy a seamless music streaming experience with Spotify.
