Spotify Android Background Streaming Issue

I have an issue whenever I am background streaming Spotify on my Android device.

Brave does its job by blocking the ads but the music stops playing up until there unless I reopen Spotify to continue playing then, when the next ad comes around the same issue persists.

I hope it will be fixed. Thank you.

It sounds like the issue may be caused by how Brave is blocking ads, potentially interfering with Spotify’s background playback. You can try a few things:

  1. Allowlist Spotify in Brave: Make sure Spotify is on Brave’s allowlist so it doesn’t block any critical elements that affect playback.
  2. Disable “Block Ads and Trackers” for Spotify: You could disable ad-blocking for Spotify specifically, allowing it to function without interruption.
  3. Use the official Spotify app without ad-blockers: If the issue continues, you might want to try streaming without any ad-blocking extensions to see if that resolves it.

Let me know if you need more details on any of these!

Brave performs its function by blocking ads, but the music stops until I reopen Spotify to continue playing; when the next ad appears, the same problem occurs.
