Understanding Common Instafest Issues

Before we dive into solutions, let’s identify some common problems users encounter:

  • App Crashes: Instafest unexpectedly closes while you’re using it.
  • Loading Errors: The app crashes or gets stuck on a loading screen, or you cannot view your festival lineup.
  • Data Errors: Some artists or songs that you wish to listen to are not there or you come across a message saying that there is no recent listening history.
  • Sharing Issues: One thing you cannot do is share your created lineup on social media.
  • Display Issues: The text is warping, or the layout is not properly aligned.
  • Account Connectivity Issues: The app fails to sync your Spotify or Apple Music account.

Troubleshooting Steps: Let’s Fix It!

Follow these steps to troubleshoot Instafest problems:

1. Check Your Internet Connection:  For Instafest to work properly, it requires an internet connection. Ensure that you have a stable Wi-Fi connection or a good network data connection. In case the connection is poor, it is advised to change the network connection.

2. Reconnect Your Music Account: Go to your Spotify account settings and revoke the Instafest access to Spotify. Then, reconnect your account by following the instructions given to you. This can sometimes help to reset the connection and fix data issues.

3. Check Music App Permissions: Check if Instafest has the right access to use your Spotify data. These permissions are often set by the user in the settings of the device that the application is being used on.

Troubleshooting Specific Issues

1. “No Recent Listening History” Error:

  • Make sure you’ve been actively listening to music on Spotify or Apple Music. Instafest needs data to generate your festival lineup.
  • Try playing a few songs on your music app and then reopen Instafest.

2. Missing Artists or Songs:

If there are certain artists or songs that are not in your schedule, you can change the time range in Instafest. You can usually set the time period within which it collects your listening history.

3. Sharing Issues:

If you are having issues with sharing your lineup on social media, try to close the app and open it again or even close and reopen your device.
