Spotify is yet to acknowledge any issue with its systems and there has been no official word on the outage from the company yet.
This isn’t the first time Spotify has gone down and similar outages can be traced in the music streaming app’s recent history, with a number of users facing a global outage back in March this year.
The outage had popped up on the night of March 8, and Spotify was quick to acknowledge the issue on Twitter back then, and the issue was fixed soon after. It remains to be seen if Spotify users see a quick fix this time around as well.
