How to Disconnect Spotify From Facebook Without Losing Access
Remove Facebook from Spotify login methods after checking another sign-in option. Learn the separate Facebook app-permission step and what to do if locked out.
Quick answer: Open your Spotify account's Login methods page, confirm you can use a different method to sign in, and then remove Facebook from Edit login methods if it appears there. Do this in Spotify before changing any Facebook app permissions. Spotify says that once Facebook is removed as a login method, you cannot add it back. If you cannot sign in now, use Spotify's Facebook-login recovery guidance first instead of removing access from Facebook and hoping that will fix the login.
“Disconnect Spotify from Facebook” can describe two different settings. One controls whether Continue with Facebook opens your Spotify account. The other controls permissions for an app in your Facebook account. A person might want to change one or both, but they are managed in different places. Start by identifying which connection you actually see and which one you want to stop.
Decide which connection you mean
If you still select Continue with Facebook when signing in to Spotify, check Spotify's own login methods. Its Facebook login help says an existing Facebook method works only if it is still available on your Login methods page. Spotify also says a Facebook connection may display your Facebook name and picture in its app and help you find friends. Those social details do not tell you whether Facebook is your only way into the account; the login-method list does.
If your concern is what an app may access or publish through Facebook, review Facebook's Apps and Websites settings separately. Meta's app-permission help describes viewing or removing an app there. A Facebook permission screen does not replace Spotify's list of accepted sign-in methods. Avoid treating a removal in either account as proof that the other account's settings changed.
If you simply want to stop using the Facebook button, you may be able to sign in another way without removing Facebook immediately. First verify that the alternative reaches the same Spotify account you use today. That gives you a chance to resolve email or account confusion before a change that Spotify says cannot be reversed.
Check another way to sign in before removing Facebook
While you can still reach Spotify, open its Login methods page in an account browser. The Current login methods list shows the ways Spotify says can access that account. If Facebook is listed, note whether email or another method is also listed. Spotify requires at least one login method to remain when you remove one.
If you need another method, use Edit login methods and choose Add beside an available option. Spotify says you may first need to use an Edit control and verify yourself. Confirm the new method's details and check that it appears under Current login methods before proceeding. Available options and verification prompts can differ by account, so follow the screen you actually receive.
Check the email address associated with your account too. Spotify's login-change guidance directs users to their account page, under Account → Edit personal info, to review it. Use an inbox you control. An outdated or inaccessible email can make password recovery difficult. Since September 2026, Spotify's guidance describes email, rather than a username, as the account identifier for email sign-in; this is another reason to verify the address before relying on it.
Do not assume that a familiar email automatically opens the right account. Spotify says the same login details cannot be added to multiple Spotify accounts. If an option reports that the details are already connected elsewhere, stop and identify which account you are signed into. Check the profile and account details instead of creating a second account as an improvised workaround. Use Spotify Support for the next recovery step.
For extra confidence, keep the current signed-in session open and test the new sign-in method in a separate private browser window. Confirm that it reaches the intended account before returning to the original session. This is a practical check, not a Spotify requirement, and it will not prove that every device will remain signed in. Avoid signing out of your only working session until you know the replacement works.
Remove Facebook from Spotify login methods
Once another method is confirmed, open Spotify's Edit login methods page. If Facebook appears in Current login methods, choose Remove beside it and then Yes, remove to confirm. Those button labels come from Spotify's current help; if your account screen differs, use its displayed choices rather than an old screenshot.
Spotify says at least one login method must remain. It also says that after Facebook is disconnected, Facebook cannot be added as a login method again. Read the confirmation before accepting it. If Facebook is absent from the current-method list, there is no Facebook login method shown there to remove. You may have signed in through a different method or may be looking at a different Spotify account. In that case, first resolve the account identity; a missing Remove button alone does not diagnose the cause.
After removal, use the alternative method you tested to access Spotify. If a device still appears signed in, do not treat that as evidence that Continue with Facebook will work there later. The account's Login methods page is the relevant place to review accepted sign-in methods. Spotify's support pages can change, so recheck their current directions if a later screen behaves differently.
If Facebook login no longer works
If you cannot enter Spotify with Facebook, you may still be able to establish email-and-password access. Spotify's Facebook login help directs users to its password reset form, where they can enter the email associated with their Facebook login and follow the Spotify email. Spotify says that after creating a password, the email address and new password can be used without the Facebook button.
First check the inbox you believe was used for Facebook sign-in. If the reset message is not there, check spam or other inboxes you control and review Spotify's password help. Do not assume the Facebook email address is still the address on the Spotify account. If you have a Spotify session open elsewhere, inspect the account details there before trying multiple guesses.
If the reset does not lead to the intended account, stop before changing Facebook permissions or creating a new Spotify account. Spotify's account tools cannot be inferred from a public article, and this site cannot verify your account ownership. Use Spotify Support for an account-specific recovery path. Never give your Facebook password, Spotify password, or reset code to a third-party “disconnect” service.
Review Facebook app permissions separately
If Spotify appears under Facebook Apps and Websites, you can review what Facebook says the app can access. Meta's app settings help describes opening the app entry and using View and Edit or Remove, where available. Facebook's menus vary by device and account. Read the permissions shown in your own settings and confirm any removal there.
This review serves a different purpose from removing Facebook on Spotify's Login methods page. If you want to stop Facebook-based sign-in, verify that step in Spotify itself. If you also want to revoke Facebook app access, review it in Facebook. There is no need to assume that either single click automatically completes both tasks. If the app is not listed in Facebook, do not infer an active permission solely from an old Spotify profile picture or historical sign-in habit.
Keep a way back into both accounts before making changes. Confirm the email and login options you can access, use the official account pages, and pause if an account shows unexpected details. The aim is a verified Spotify sign-in method that does not depend on Facebook, followed by a separate Facebook permission review if that is part of your concern.
Frequently asked questions
Can I add Facebook back as a Spotify login method later?
Spotify says no. Once you remove Facebook as a login method, it cannot be added back. Verify another way to sign in before you confirm removal.
Why is there no Remove button for Facebook in Spotify?
Facebook may not be listed as a current login method on the Spotify account you are viewing. Check the account and its Current login methods list before changing other settings.
Will removing Spotify in Facebook Apps and Websites also remove Facebook login in Spotify?
These are separate account settings. Check Spotify’s Login methods page for accepted sign-in methods, and review Facebook Apps and Websites separately for app permissions.
What if I cannot log in with Facebook anymore?
Spotify advises trying its password reset form with the email associated with your Facebook login. If that does not reach the right account, use Spotify Support for account-specific help.
