Ok. I'll have to look into that. I've spent quite some time trying to get rid of all thread issues but this sounds like there is, at least, one left.

If the application hangs, you can always use Ctrl+backspace to get to the task view. If you click the close icon a couple of times, the window manager will pick up on this and ask you if you want to terminate footify.

There should never be reason to reboot your device.

Not being able to log in again after a "crash" is all about how the Spotify servers handle users. Since you didn't exit the application in the proper way, the Spotify servers still view you as logged in. If you then try to log in again (from the same IP most likely), you might get rejected. As far as I know, this is just a matter of waiting a few minutes and then it works again.
