It does not reach the impact of WhatsApp, but Spotify has become one of the most used applications. If we want to ignore advertising or be able to change songs freely, we have no choice but to go through the box and make ourselves with one of its premanic subscriptions. Which has always been from a legal point of view, for many years, there has been A modified version of the application This allows you to take advantage of the payment functions without paying a penny.
A few hours ago, the newspaper jumped when this version, which is installed via an APK on Android phones, has stopped working from one moment to anothergenerating a little chaos on the internet. This chaos may not be really so small, because this APK failure has demonstrated the large number of people who used it so as not to pay any of the Spotify payment models.
A farewell that should not push us to look for an APK alternative
The “Picaresca” always leads many users to find a way to access payment services for less money or directly for free. The existence of this APK has been known for years, becoming a meme for paying for Spotify, which can access it completely for free. Spotify has decided to cut the tap and prevent it from being accessible through it. Of course: there is always a rear door to avoid this blockade.
You just have to take a look at social networks to see that many people have put their hands on the head with this closure of the APK. In fact, there are users who have tried other alternative APKs and none offered the same result. In addition, closing access to these functions has another alternative consequence: The loss of all the information in themlike breeding lists.

This tendency to seek an APK which offers a similar result is the worst that can be done. These files that we find on the internet They do not transmit any type of safety filterSomething that happens with official application stores, such as Google Play Store.
If we install this type of applications without any control, what we do is endanger the safety of our device And of all the information we have in him. Many of these APKs that we can find on the Internet are camouflaged malware, and it is more than likely that those who try to identify an alternative from the APK Spotify are now extended.
How does Spotify cut access to this APK? Everything seems to indicate that he has not reduced access, but that He directly sported the accounts that used him. Several users have reported that the solution to continue using this APK was to create a new account because it worked.
It is obvious that Spotify is aware of this type of apk, qWhich is obviously only available on Android. IOS does not allow you to install files downloaded from the Internet, which Google’s operating system offers much more freedom. This type of access is an authentic bleeding for its subscription model, it is therefore logical that Spotify continues to put efforts to limit or reduce the operation of this APK to the root.
