Ever frustrated why Spotify iOS spp doesn’t let you repeat single track?

Unlike Spotify Desktop app, iOS app only lets you repeat playlists.

Even though you hit the repeat button twice (or as many as you want), the app doesn’t let you play only one song.

Here are two workarounds for this problem.

[1] Create a new playlist with only one song, and repeat the playlist.

This method is rather straight-forward.

If we can repeat a playlist, then we just need to create a playlist with the song we want to repeat.

App

The potential problem with this workaround is that you will need to create an individual playlist for each song you want to repeat. This can make your playlist collection messy. You should probably constantly delete the playlists you created for this purpose, after you finish repeating one song.

[2] Search for a track within a playlist, and repeat the playlist with one search result.

Spotify users mainly listen to music from playlists. If the song you want repeat over and over, is already in an existing playlist, then you should search for this song within the playlist. When you repeat the playlist with only one song shown as a search result, then you can repeat this one song over and over.
