Error 901 in Spotify often indicates a network connectivity issue that prevents the app from connecting to the server. This can hinder playback of music and may affect the overall user experience.

How to Fix It

  1. Check Your Internet Connection: Ensure that your device is connected to the internet. Try loading a website or using another online service to verify connectivity.
  2. Restart Spotify: Close the Spotify app completely and then reopen it. This can refresh its connection to the server.
  3. Clear App Cache: Navigate to your device's settings, find Spotify under applications, and select the option to clear the app cache. This can resolve issues caused by corrupted data.
  4. Disable VPN or Proxy: If you are using a VPN or proxy service, disable it temporarily and try using Spotify again, as these can sometimes lead to connectivity issues.
  5. Update Spotify: Ensure that you are using the latest version of Spotify. Go to your app store, check for updates, and install any available updates.
  6. Restart Your Device: Sometimes, a simple device restart can help resolve issues by refreshing the network connection and system resources.
