Spotify, the most widely used music streaming service, offers multiple features and options to enhance the experience and expand the possibilities.
Spotify users can access the service via web browser, desktop clients (Windows OS, Linux OS and macOS) and dedicated apps (Android and iOS). Also, you can sync Spotify with smart speakers.
You can also ‘Like’ your favorite songs to add them to the ‘Liked songs’ list and find them later on any device. However, this feature is currently not working properly for many.
According to multiple reports, Spotify ‘Liked songs’ list is not syncing between mobile devices app and desktop (1, 2).
Spotify Liked songs list not syncing between mobile and desktop
According to multiple reports, Spotify is constantly desyncing the user’s liked songs list between the phone app and the desktop client.
It seems that completely reinstalling the Spotify app helps to resolve the issue temporarily. However, it will happen again sooner or later.
This is not the first time that users of the service have faced similar problems. There are reports related to issues with Spotify ‘Liked’ songs sync issue since at least 2020.
This happened to me 2 days ago. I made a post on here about it and got no answers. On my own accord, i deleted and redownloaded Spotify and the fix worked temporarily.
