Spotify has acknowledged a widespread issue affecting its Android app, where users are unable to see Google Cast devices like Chromecast and Nest speakers in the Spotify Connect menu. This problem, first reported in 2024, has been discussed on community forums and affects only Spotify, as other streaming services continue to work properly. Spotify's moderators are investigating the issue, but no timeline for a resolution has been provided. Users can temporarily regain functionality by rolling back to earlier versions of the app, specifically versions 9.1.40.1486 and 9.1.42.1107, available on APKMirror. Users are advised not to reboot their networks unnecessarily while waiting for a fix from Spotify.
