Hey there,

Thanks for reaching out.

Since Spotify is a music streaming service, content can only be accessed through the Spotify app or the apps of partners (such as car infotainment or TVs).

I hope this clears things up!

Hi there @fcaporale69,

Thanks for reaching out. We'll be glad to clarify the functionality of the app.

Spotify is a streaming service, so it's not possible to download songs as files that can be transferred to physical media or to other devices. When you download songs to listen offline, this merely caches them on a specific device so as to be able to play them back later without needing an internet connection. As such, you can only use Spotify on devices that support it in some way. If the one you have doesn't directly, then you can perhaps try and use a supported device and listen via Bluetooth instead.

Hope this clears things up.

MP3 versions?

I have swimming headphones with Bluetooth and MP3 playing capability; however, since Bluetooth does not work in water, I have to use the built-in memory card to play MP3s. Is it possible to download a playlist onto an MP3 player like this? ~ Thanks, Tyson

Hi @martymcfly64,

Thanks for posting in the Spotify Community, and welcome!

I’ve moved your post from Chat to a relevant Help board, where it fits better.

Spotify is a streaming service, so unfortunately it's not possible to download songs as files that can be transferred to physical media or to other devices (such as an MP3 player). You can only use Spotify on devices that support it in some way.

Let me know if you have any other questions, and have a good day!

I want to transfer my downloaded playlist to a file format onto my RockStar Audio Play device

JoshiBoi777 — Sat, 07 Jun 2025 02:35:09 GMT

Hi, I was hoping somebody might be able to help me with this, I was gifted a revamped Mp3 player that doesn't have a network connection. I have recently bought a micro SD card for the device and I have been trying to add my favourite songs onto it with no success. I am saving and downloading the spotify files on the app. What is required by my Rock Star Audio Play device is that you are able to transfer the downloaded files onto the device itself. I have tried to share it with myself but that didn't work. I have all the necessary hardware for what I am trying to do. If anybody can do some brainstorming or get in contact with someone in a position to make these requested changes that would be great. Even if the most you can do is to share this around so that it gets more exposure, that would be much appreciated.

Thank you, JM.

Hello,

I'm looking for a MP3 player for my kid, on which I can download his Spotify Playlist.

I have Spotify Premium Family.

Does any MP3 Player with Spotify App allows offline listening?

Or do I need a specific one?

I already know I have to go online each 30 days.

Best regards

Gui

Can I download music from Spotify to a MP3 player

Can I download music from Spotify to a MP3 player that has a Spotify app

Re: how do you download music on to an mp3 player

Joan — Mon, 14 Jul 2025 09:19:27 GMT

Hi there folks,

Thanks for the replies.

@icontesse Spotify can only be used on supported devices, but there are MP3 players out there that run on Android, so if any of those cover the minimum requirements, this should be exactly what you're looking for. Provided you use Premium, you will have all the benefits including offline listening.

@mshonnie Files cannot be extracted from Spotify and transferred. Provided the device you're using supports the Spotify app, you can download the music there to be able to listen to it offline.

Hope this clears things up.

make an option to download the songs file

SeeTears — Thu, 26 Mar 2026 22:24:45 GMT

Make a button to download the file of the song, im always finding a need of mp3 files of songs that just take forever to get, making this an option for us would give us creative access to music and sampling

Copying playlists on USB key into wav files.

Denis57 — Sat, 11 Apr 2026 23:02:19 GMT

I realy want to listen my favorite play list in my car. There are application like MuConver that can do the job in copying into wav files. I know it's not authorized to do so according to your policies of using Spotify. My suggestion would be to pay a certain amount of money at every copying of play list so the artists can be paid for its rights. Do you think it could be possible that some days you allowed user like me with no Smartphone to copy its favorites playlist by paying extra money just like we use to do when CDs were avalable and could be played everywhere.

Thanks for your attention.

Well when you don't own a smart phone your solution is not working for me. And MP3 is not the best quality of sound, I don't want to loose any quality of sound so your suggestion with MP3 again is not working for me. I want a better solution and apparently you can't provide onde that works for me.

Downloading Music To Earbuds With Internal Music Storage

JOE193 — Tue, 21 Apr 2026 23:15:56 GMT

I have Nank Runner Diver2 Pro bone conduction earbuds. It has internal music storage. The BIG question, is now do you download playable music to any pair of earbuds with internal storage without using some sort of converter software since not streaming music service offers a format such as MP3, etc.
