Part 1. How to Fix Amazon Music Skipping Song Issue

Since the Amazon Music keeps skips songs no matter from its streaming service or Downloads, we keep some of the common fixes here separated for the online and offline music modes. Please follow these steps.

1.1 Reestablish Internet Connection

If Amazon Music skips songs online, please make sure the internet connection has no issues to access Amazon Music's streaming service. According to Amazon Music, its online mode requires a "strong" connection to stream a full song.

If you experience this issue when streaming online, please check the internet connection on other mobile apps or on other devices (if available) in the same cellular or Wi-Fi connection - the internet speed should be between 10-20Mbps or faster. To make the connection work fine, please reestablish the connection after 30 seconds.

1.2 Switch to Online or Offline Mode

If the internet connection works fine in Amazon Music's online mode, please download the song from Amazon Music and try playing this song offline to see if the Amazon music skipping issue persists with the downloaded one. To first access the downloaded version of the song, go to Settings > Play downloads first.

While users in online mode can stop Amazon Music skipping with the rebuilt internet, some efforts are needed for users in offline mode to delete all Amazon Music downloads using a clear data function on the device or uninstalling the app.

1.3 Clear Amazon Music Cache

Amazon Music cache is the temporary files stored on the device to ensure a smooth listening experience. But sometimes the Amazon Music cache can be corrupt and need be cleared from the Amazon Music app to stop Amazon Music skipping songs.

Some efforts are needed on mobile to clear Amazon Music cache. On Android, from the Home screen to Settings > Storage > Amazon Music > Clear cache. On iOS device, please try refresh My Music instead to open the Amazon Music app > Clear icon > Settings > Refresh My Music. After the cache has been cleared from the app, please check if Amazon Music skips after this step.

1.5 Redownload Amazon Music Songs

If the Amazon Music download service is available, we suggest redownloading the downloaded the problematic songs from Amazon Music, which should be tried to have the songs back on track. To make a difference on the quality, please select an available format among Standard quality, HD, Ultra HD and Spatial Audio.

This should happens after a switch from online to offline mode or from offline to online mode to see whether the Amazon Music skipping issue has been fixed.
