Want Premium to work on vacation - How do I perform this?

[vics]

Gang;

Have Premium on my Ipad and am going to French St Maarten for a couple weeks.

Would appreciate a step by step overview of how I'll be able to enjoy it there sans the drama 🙂

I'm registered in the USA.

Thanks very much

Vic

The best way is to download your playlists, so that even when you don't have Internet access, you will still be able to play your music.

Here you can read the help guide on how to do this. Just click on the instructions for iPad:

https://support.spotify.com/learn-more/guides/#!/article/Listen-offline

1. With an active Internet connection select a playlist.
2. Tap the Available Offline switch at the top of the playlist.
   
3. A green arrow will appear next on the playlist when it’s finished downloading.
   
4. Turn on Offline Mode in Settings > Playback and tapping the switch at the top.
   

You can sync a maximum of 3,333 songs per device and stay offline for up to 30 days before having to reconnect to Spotify.

Thanks very much for that! Sounds like a very viable solution.

I will have an Internet connection and no problem with streaming once at my destination. That said and if I wanted to use Spotify this way what would I need to change in order to do so? Thanks.

If you have an Internet connection while on vacation, then you will have no problem streaming the music because premium lets you listen aboard.

However, I still suggest you take advantage of downloading playlists for offline use, just in case.

Much appreciated Matt! 🙂
