(NEXSTAR) — Can’t stream your latest Daylist or podcast episode on Spotify? You aren’t alone — thousands of users have reported issues accessing the streaming service.

As of 10 a.m. ET, nearly 50,000 user reports of problems with Spotify have been reported on Downdetector. Issue reports were trending down by 10:15 a.m. ET.

More than half of the complaints are related to the Spotify app, while others pointed to problems with the website and audio streaming.

One user reported that while they were initially able to play some songs on Spotify, it soon stopped and appeared to lag. Their home screen was also visible, but podcasts and playlists took an extended time to load.

Shortly before 10 a.m. ET, Spotify said it was “aware of issues affecting the Spotify app and website loading. The right team is on it and working on a fix.”

A downtime notice from Spotify said that it was aware that “the app isn’t loading properly or that [users are] experiencing playback issues.”

According to Spotify, the issue is not linked to a security hack.

Spotify has more than 675 million users, including 263 million subscribers in more than 180 markets, according to the company. Since launching in 2008, the streaming service has expanded to include not only songs and podcasts but audiobooks.

It’s listed among the top downloaded apps in Apple’s App Store and on Google Play.

Spotify has become well-known for its annual Spotify Wrapped, which offers an overview of your listening trends for the past year. It will also compare you to others based on your top artists, songs, genres, albums, and podcasts.
