Who Me Too'd this topic

I’ve recently bought a Moto G (3rd Gen) android phone which has 8gb internal storage and 32gb SD card.

When downloading playlists/albums to Spotify, initially it saves the files to my SD card and plays the files back fine. After a few hours (I think after I’ve charged the phone again), on opening Spotify all my playlists have un-downloaded and Spotify starts automatically downloading them again to the internal storage.

Weirdly all the original files on my SD card still seem to be there when looking at the file manager – so I end up with 2 copies of everything.

I have tried every solution that I can (having looked at all the ideas people have suggested here), e.g:

• Completely removing Spotify (including all folders and cache etc) and reinstalling – three times I’ve done this
• I’ve swapped the SD card with a different one completely
• I’ve wiped and unmounted and reinstalled the same SD card a few times

Any ideas? Obviously my phone’s internal storage is tiny so I need to be able to download and use music via SD – otherwise I’ll have to cancel my Spotify contract and go with Google…

Thanks!
