WearablesHi Sachu,
Thanks for sharing your experience—it definitely sounds frustrating, especially since you've had a smooth run with other Samsung devices before. Let's try to get to the bottom of it.
Possible Causes of Automatic Skips and Pauses
These issues on YouTube and Spotify can stem from a few common sources:
1. Battery Optimization Settings
Samsung’s battery management may be pausing background apps:
-
Go to Settings → Battery and device care → Battery → Background usage limits.
-
Disable Put unused apps to sleep.
-
Add YouTube and Spotify to the Never sleeping apps list.
2. App Permissions or Data Saver
-
Check Settings → Apps → Select YouTube or Spotify → Permissions and Mobile data.
-
Ensure Allow background data usage is enabled.
3. Bluetooth or Headphone Interference
If you're using wireless earbuds or headphones:
-
Check for Bluetooth dropouts or auto-pause settings.
-
Try using the apps without headphones to see if the issue persists.
4. Gesture or Touch Sensitivity
Accidental touches or gestures might be triggering skips:
-
Disable Accidental touch protection under Settings → Display.
-
Try using the apps with a screen protector removed (if applicable).
We will proceed with a series of feasible troubleshooting steps to help address the issue effectively.
