My Question or Issue

How do I pause downloads on Windows 10 spotify app? I can only connect to my mobile hotspot and it is draining my data from having to download pretty much every day for no good reason.

Hey there @meetdapete!

Thanks for reaching out to the Community and sorry for the delayed reply.

The songs you've downloaded for offline listening shouldn't be redownloading every day if everything is working well with the app.

We'd recommend checking out this page for more info on how to make sure things are in order.

We'll be on the lookout for your reply. Feel free to get back to us if you have any further questions 🙂

Nothing relevant on the page, it's doing the same thing on my iPhone since day 1 of premium

Hey @meetdapete,

Thanks for getting back to us 🙂

We'd suggest you restart your phone and then to log out and log back in again. If that doesn't help, you can give these steps a go and run a clean reinstall. That way you can make sure the app is up-to-date and the cache is not causing any issues.

If you have any battery optimization or power saving apps, you can deactivate them for Spotify.

Let us know how it goes. If you have questions, you know where to find us.
