Spotify is down so you can’t listen to podcasts while making breakfast

If your Spotify isn’t doing what it’s supposed to do today, you’re not alone.

According to Downdetector, as well as numerous complaints on Twitter, Spotify isn’t working for a lot of people right now.

For us at Mashable, it’s a mixed bag; in parts of Europe it works, in the UK and the U.S. it doesn’t. And waking up and realizing you can’t listen to your favorite podcast while making breakfast…well, that’s just inhumane.

We’ve checked Spotify’s official accounts, and the company doesn’t seem to be aware anything is up. Check out this exchange, below, in which the company’s official support account suggests a user should reinstall their app. If it were just that, Spotify, there would be no ugly red spike on Downdetector.

We’ve sent an inquiry to Spotify to see what’s up and when we can expect a fix. In the meantime… Apple Music, maybe?
