iPhone in Devices

CraigFairlie — Mon, 30 Mar 2015 18:35:49 GMT

I've got a bit of a problem with my iPhone. When i plug it in to the laptop, the iPhone won't show in devices? The iPhone shows up in iTunes and as a removable device, but not in spotify. My iPhone is connected to the same wi-fi as my laptop but it's not showing up in Spotify.

Is there a way to fix this?

Many Thanks

Craig

The devices section will be coming back in a future update.

In the meantime:
You won't be able to see an indication in the desktop client that the device is paired with the desktop client. But as long as they both are on the same WiFi network you should be able to trigger the local files sync by toggling the offline toggle on the playlist on your device. Just make sure that the local files are in a playlist of their own so that this will work.

Fantastic. Thank you.

Is there a way to search for local files, there's not a search bar?
