My Question or Issue

I downloaded a local File on my Samsung S9 (via desktop pc, local file, sync etc.) and it works! But i can´t play this file on network devices, only smartphone and laptop. Why is it not possible to share this file to a wlan device?

Hey @tombones.

Thanks for reaching out on the Community, and sorry for the late response! We'll be glad to you out in case you still aren't able to find an answer to your question 🙂

Could you clarify what you mean by network devices? In any case, you have to make sure that you are logged into your own Spotify account on whichever device you want to play the local file on, and that the deivce is connected to the same network as the PC where the original music files are stored.

Hope that clears things up! Let us know if you have any further questions - we'll be right here.
