Spotify update won’t install
Got notification in car about a new Spotify update this morning. Great, said I, hopefully they’ve fixed all the bugs!
No such luck. The update refuses to install. It keeps crashing out with “No connection to service” while installing. On top of that, it locks out the existing installed Spotify app. Grr. Seems to have all the hallmarks of an overloaded update server. Anyone else managed to update successfully? Steve

I had problems with a previous release of Spotify where it eventually failed after I think a week of a stuck update.
I find it's better to delete the app and then install fresh rather than update. Found that always goes in cleanly.

As above delete the app and reinstall it.

Mine got stuck for a week, eventually I was able to remove the app and the install went fine. If you're lucky it will fix itself before your appointment.
A real pain in the a$$ mind.

Deleting the app doesn't fix it either. Spotify does show up in the list of apps which can be installed, but when tapped it fails to download in the same manner. Interestingly, tapping the down arrow for more details of the downloads show its size as "0 bytes".
Native Spotify was one of the things which helped sell this car to me, but Volvo have royally scr*wed up this update and, together with other niggles, my brand loyalty (17 years and 5 Volvos) is being eroded fast. Has anyone else managed to install this Spotify update successfully? Steve

Yep that's what mine did, after a week it came up with some error message and the uninstall option appeared. Did that, re-installed and all went fine.
