Logon to spotify not possible

When I want to log in after downloading the spotify app from the play store, the message “Irgendetwas ist schief gelaufen” appears after a while (approx. 15-20 seconds).

Hello,

this can be caused by your internet connection specially if you use a VPN or because of the DNS.

orbot is installed as a vpn on the nitrophone? can it be related to this? how can I “exclude” the spotify app here?

This may be the problem here.

You can try to turn off Orbot and try to connect to Spotify to be sure.

Then you can also choose apps in Orbot settings but I’m not sure if this is for excluding or the opposite.

Deactivating orbot allows you to log in to Spotify. I didn’t really want to disable orbot completely, and frankly I didn’t quite understand the application settings either.
Do you have any ideas on how I can use a vpn and Spotify at the same time? i.e. an alternative vpn if necessary?

I understand.

Normally you should be able to choose which app you want to run with Orbot or not.

From their website:

Orbot (on Android) allows you to specifically choose which apps to route through Tor, allowing you to still use apps and service that may be concerned with traffic coming from Tor.

Otherwise I recommend using InviZible Pro where you can exclude app from using Tor in the app setting.
