Breaking News: Spotify Experiences Outage

Author : Simon May 19,2025

Heads up: music streaming service Spotify seems to be down this morning. According to IGN's sister site Downdetector, Spotify outages began being reported around 6 a.m. PT today, and at the time of this piece were still flooding in. We ourselves were unable to access the service for much of the morning, and when we were able to get the app to open, it wouldn't play music.

Spotify has acknowledged the issues and says it's "working to resolve it as soon as possible." The company also confirmed that reports of the outage being related to a security hack were false.

We are aware of the outage and working to resolve it as soon as possible. The reports of this being a security hack are false.
