Older Spotify Android APK that works much better

Spotify app circa 2021 is more reliable on Android 11 and over bluetooth.

Current version of Spotify is quite buggy on my OxygenOS 11 (Android 11). Main issue is that the media player widget often disappears, or does not appear at all, which breaks car bluetooth controls. Reinstalling the app, removing battery optimization, or locking the app on the switcher did not help.
However, the older Spotify version circa 2021 works rather well, and still has most of the functionality.
Spotify 8.5.98.984 Android APK (please do not hotlink)

Pros:

• Media player works correctly, and there are no issues with bluetooth controls.
• Home page works. (In earlier versions of 8.5, such as 8.5.13, the home page is broken - probably outdated API?)
• Home page has "Made for you" category with daily mixes. (In current version, mixes often do not show up)
• Shuffle works correctly. (Current version attempts to group shuffled songs by artist, and seems to prefer recently-liked songs)
• Like button is a heart that adds or removes the song from your Liked Songs list. Fewer clicks for liking multiple songs and removing songs.

Cons:

• No DJ
• No Smart Shuffle
