Please Help - Dragging Songs from offline folders to Spotify Playlists

Hi Guys, 

 

Been with Spotify for around 3 years now, love the service.

 

However there seems to have been a recent update that is no longer letting me drag offline files to a playlist in spotify.

 

As I'm a DJ, i have many edits of songs that spotify doesn't have and I'm trying to sort it out so i can listen to them too, it's only just started happening and when i go to the playlists I've made offline on my phone a while ago, none of the tracks are there. So im assuming it's an update.

 

I suppose i could use the offline files tab in Spotify but as i have my personal music organised monthly, the drag option would be much easier and was.

 

If anyone could help that'd be great, thanks!

Drag and drop is currently not supported in the new version.
Spotify plans to bring some features back, but it is currently not known if the feature you mentioned will be coming back.

You can still add local files to Spotify. Go into the settings and under "Local Files" you can import the source folder that contains the local files.

After you do that, the local files will appear in the "Local Files" section.

Find the song and then drag it over to a playlist.
