This is how it looks like

Unfortunately, due to recent popularity rise and user increase all the Spotify public clientIds and clientSecrets are in heavy usage, thus throwing API quota exceeded error every time. You can log in with your Spotify account, and it'll start to work.

Thanks for your fast reply @KRTirtho . I logged in with my Spotify account and it works now. Awesome! :) For the sake of usability I would suggest to add a message about that if loading times out.

Could you be more specific? My Google TV Chromecast doesn't let me reach the log in option, just freezes at start and remote doen't respond

[KRTirtho]

Android TV support isn't there yet. The app opens but Focus traversal and remote button based navigation doesn't work as underlying Flutter framework still doesn't support it

[lemayian-tech]

thanks KRTirtho! i absolutely love the app

[Zedisverydead]

Thank you for your answer and your awesome work. Just dreaming about an android TV versión, It looks amazing in a big screen too. Fantastic app KRThirtho. Thank you!

I have a related problem in that after logging in and everything working fine, then the next day or two when I come back, the problem comes back. The settings page has "log out" button which by clicking I can log out and then login back in by going through the tedious process of obtaining the sp_dc and then it works again.

How can I stay logged in properly without having to go through the sp_dc process so often?

Unable to login in android app too. 403

Maybe a bit stupid, I didn't try yet but thinking about connecting a bluetooth keynoard+mouse to Chromecast and log in using them because just remote is not responding. Once you logged in maybe everything works fine in Google TV...
