Can't unlink spotify

I want to unlink my spotify account, but when I click 'unlink', Google home says that this is impossible. Why? And more importantly: how to fix this?

Hi folks,

 

Thanks again for helping here, @RachelGomez123. @RMvanderSpek, I hope you've got the answer you're looking for. If needed, re-install your Spotify app. Once done, go ahead and unlink your Spotify account from your Google Home app. It will take you to its link and follow the steps provided.

 

  1. Make sure your mobile device is connected to the same Wi-Fi or linked to the same account as the speaker or display.
  2. Open the Google Home app.
  3. Tap account on the upper right corner.
  4. Verify the Google Account on screen is the one linked to the speaker or display. To switch accounts, tap the down arrow icon > choose another account or Add another account.
  5. Go back to the home screen.
  6. Tap Add > Music.
  7. To choose a default service, select the preferred music service available. The Assistant uses this choice when the customer uses the voice command “Hey Google, play music.”
  8. Link function:
    • For YouTube, the account is automatically linked when the customer sets up the speaker or display.
    • For Spotify, Apple Music, Pandora, and others, the customer needs to link their account.
      • To connect the account, tap a music service > Link Account > sign in or sign up for the service > follow the in-app steps.
      • To unlink an account, tap Unlink > Unlink account.

 

If you're still in need of any assistance, feel free to let us know.

 

Best,

Thanks both for the answer. I haven't tried the solution yet. Mostly because I don't remember what spotify account I linked it with originally 😅

In the end we succeeded to unlink, although it didn't happen instantly after clicking (we saw the change happen a few hours later).

 

Thanks for your help, my problem is solved.
