My Question or Issue

So I have a files for a local file song and it works perfectly on PC. In order to get it to my phone I uploaded it to Google Drive and then downlaod on my phone. Usually when it downloads on my phone it works but for some reason it isnt working for this one song from an album of 3 songs. Ive tried editing thw source file, unisntall from phone, reset phone, change the name and nothing works

Hey there, welcome to the Spotify Community!

 

Did you try transferring the files using a data transfer (USB) cable? Let me know if that works and you can play the tracks using the local files feature in the mobile app. Else you can follow these steps as well:

 

  • Enable local files on your desktop app
  • Download the playlist with the local songs on your mobile app
  • If your desktop and mobile apps are on the same network (WiFi, Cellular, etc. the local files would be synced to your mobile app
  • Then you can play them without transferring them using other ways

Keep us posted!
