SD card on new phone, music not recognized by Spotify

SD card on new phone, music not recognized by Spotify

I got a replacement Galaxy Note 3 and thought that since all my downloaded playlists were on my SD card, it would logically follow that if I put that card in the new phone and installed Spotify, it would see them. Not so. It acts like I have no downloaded playlists when I have an SD card full of them. I hope, I sincerely hope, there is a solution that won't involve me re-downloading dozens of gigs of data.... thanks for any input.

Unfortunately not that I am aware off. Each Spotify app maintains its own uniquely encrypted cache of tracks which prevents you moving data from one app to another.

Oh, that's a shame. Doesn't make it easy to change to a new phone. Thanks for your reply.
