Spotify AipPlay problem on iPhone with iOS 8, Airplay Problem and Successfull Workaround

Current version of Spotify on iPhone (as of Jan 16. 2015) has a problem when playing via AirPlay to AppleTV. The sound will stop after cca 2-3 minutes of playing, even if Spotify application still shows that it is playing.

It does not seem to be related to lock screen necessarily, because if I lock it manually, it stays playing (not always...) and then after those magic 2-3 minutes it stops anyway.

The Workaround which works for me well is to setup 2 things on iPhone:

  • Auto-Lock setup to Never
    • Settings > General > Auto-lock > Never
  • Airplay setup to screen mirroring
    • tick AppleTV check box
    • switch on Mirroring
Please leave a comment, if this works for you as well. Thanks.

  1. I cannot belive, that Spotify still did not fix the airplay issues when streaming to Apple TV.

    As of today (April 20th, 2015) I have Apple TV 2 updated to 6.2.1, iPhone 6 with iOS 8.3, Spotify 2.9.0 and still having the same issue with Spotify streaming via Airplay.

    So the only working solution still is the one described in the post above.
