First, download the discord app and Spotify onto your phone from the Apple App store or Google Playstore.

Why Can’t I Share Spotify On Discord?

If you cant Share Spotify on Discord, there can be multiple reasons behind that. I found several problems and fixes for such problems and listed them below.

Issues With The Browsing Cache

Unlike any other app, Spotify and Discord have to collect several pieces of information. Both apps store them as a cache in the mobile phone or on the desktop computer. When the cache is high, there can be some unintended behaviors from the app.

Another outcome delivered by the cache memory is the unauthorized connection between the Spotify app and the Discord app.

You must clear the cache and passwords to get rid of this

Steps :

  • Go to User Setting” and then “Connections.” Then click on the “X” icon
  • Next, log out from the Spotify and Discord accounts
  • Clear the cache and passwords using a third-party app.
  • Now log in to your Spotify and Discord apps and reconnect both apps

The App Is Running Too Long, And There Are Too Many Errors Growing

It is usual to produce errors for an app. Along with the restart, those errors are mitigated, and the operations are brought back to normal. The error creation is high when it comes to Spotify and Discord apps that connect to the internet and with each other.

I found out that restarting can fix such issues quickly

If you are a windows user,

  • Open the task manager
  • Kill the Spotify and Discord apps
  • Open them again

If you are an Android user,

  • Go to settings > Apps
  • Go to Spotify and Force Stop
  • Go to Discord and Force Stop
  • Start both apps again

Use of a VPN

One of the most common reasons to create errors with Spotify sharing is VPN. If you use a VPN, there is a high probability your Spotify is not sharing songs with Discord.

I found a user whose Spotify playlists shared using the laptop are not shown on Discord. But, all his playlists shared through the smartphone were visible to others. When searching for the reason, I found out that he was using a VPN for his laptop due to some reason.

I recommend you avoid VPN, at least when you are using Spotify and Discord apps.  

Discord Status Went Offline

Another issue related to Spotify not Sharing on Discord is its offline issue. I found that some users had turned off the Online mode due to privacy issues and complained about the particular issue. You must make sure that the discord status is Online.

  • Open Discord app
  • Click on the profile
  • Set the Online mode to green

Older Versions

The two apps, Spotify and Discord, have been designed to cooperate. Therefore, it is essential to have the latest versions of those apps. I found some users who complained about “Spotify Not Showing Status” issues were using the older versions.

The best way to fix this issue is to uninstall the apps and download them from the App Store or Play Store.

I found the below article that might help you to connect your Spotify account to Discord.

Conclusion

I hope you must have understand how to share the Spotify playlist on Discord quickly. Even if you have issues, you must be able to fix them. If you still have unsolved issues, please contact the relevant official platform for assistance.
