The Swedish online music service Spotify announced on Tuesday evening that it was no longer accessible for an unknown reason. Millions of users around the world have reported being disconnected and not being able to reconnect afterwards.
The Swedish online music service was cut for almost an hour and a half.
Many messages have been shared on Twitter to discuss the connection problems. “Something is not quite right, and we are investigating it. Thanks for your reports! “, wrote on Twitter the company.
About 90 minutes after his post, Spotify said things were back to normal. “Everything looks better now,” the Swedish band wrote without providing an explanation for the outage.
Spotify said it affected other platforms. The service has over 400 million active users, including 180 million paid subscribers.
Discord also down
The social network Discord was also the victim of an outage, at the same time as Spotify. “We are aware of an issue that is causing message failures and are working on a fix. We apologize for the disruption and thank you for your patience! “, he wrote on Twitter.
The reasons for this failure are also unknown.
