Trying to listen to some music Tuesday morning? You may have to use something other than Spotify.
Users of the popular music streaming app Spotify are reporting widespread errors and access issues Tuesday. The service outages and other issues began sometime after 11 a.m. CT.
The root of the issue appears to be a networking issue with Google Cloud, The Verge reports. Users of other popular applications including Snapchat, Discord and Etsy are also reporting errors.
On Spotify’s official status Twitter account, the company recently posted an update saying it’s aware of the problems and looking into them.
We’re aware of some issues right now and are checking them out! We’ll keep you posted.
