Did you try unlinking and relinking your Spotify account in the Home app?

Settings > Music > Tap 'Unlink' underneath Spotify

What country are you located in?

So underneath Spotify does it still show the "link" option? What happens when you try this? Screenshots would be super helpful. I assume you're using the latest version of the Home app?

it still says that i can link it but then is says that its authorised but then stills says i have to link it 

i can't get screenshots atm but that should explain it?

Hey there,

 

davidking, thanks for your insights!

 

ggggggggcon, have you tried reinstalling your Google Home app? Give these steps a try:

 

  • Uninstall the Spotify app on your phone.
  • Once uninstalled, try linking your Spotify account again on the Google Home app.
  • If you successfully link your Spotify account, you can install the app back on your phone.

Let us know if that works.

 

Best,

Alex

ok cool i will do that now
