If Spotify won’t play your morning playlist, you’re far from alone.

More than 15,000 people in the U.S. had reported problems with the streaming service by 10:06 a.m. ET on Tuesday, Sept. 29.

The problems appear to vary. Some users can play music but can’t search for songs or artists; others are seeing a "Something went wrong" message or having trouble logging in. Reports describe issues on both mobile and desktop, though the app may still work for some listeners.

 A Spotify error message reads “Something went wrong” and “Have another go?” above a green Reload button.
