My Question or Issue

I can't seem to download any episodes of this one podcast (radiolab by WNYC) onto my phone. My dad can on his iPhone. I tried deleting the cache and deleting the app. 

I can tap download but it just pops up with a circle with a "!" In the middle. I can still  download and listen to my music and other podcasts! Help please!!

Hey there @Zkitch,

 

Thanks for reaching out about this in the Community!

 

Could you send us a link to the Podcast in question? 

 

Also, try enabling the setting "Download Audio only" and let us know if the episodes download then?

 

Looking forward to your reply.

I am having the same issue, but it hasn't resolved even after multiple deletions and uploads of the app and restarting the phone. 

Hi there @Stmizzou,

 

Thanks for reaching out and welcome to the Spotify Community!

 

First, can you tell us more about the issue:

  • are you unable to download episodes from one specific podcast?
  • were you able to before?
  • do you see the download button and do you happen to get any errors?
  • it'd be really helpful if you can share a link to the affected podcast.

It's also worth checking with another device or ask a friend or relative to test with their own account to see if it's an issue with the podcast itself.

 

In case it's only happening on one device, we recommend using a different network to rule out any connectivity issues. When testing with mobile data, make sure to temporarily enable Downloads over cellular in the app's settings -> Data-saving and offline first.

 

Let us know how it goes.
