Android Spotify SD Card. Tried searching, please help :)

Android Spotify SD Card. Tried searching, please help :)

Hey guys. Im having a hard time with my new phone. Its a Huaweii, so i dont expect much of it xD haha, but im really hoping to get spotify to work with it. Its a Y8 if that matters

Anyways. Ive googled about this and i see that a lot of people have had the same problem, with different phones. Making the offline playlist save on the SD card.

Spotify say:
- Go to System Settings
- Go to "Apps"
- Find Spotify there
- On Spotify's page, first, tap "Force Close"
- Then tap "Clear cache" if it's not greyed out.
- Then tap "Unninstall" and remove the app.
- After uninnstalling, power off your device.
- If you can, remove the battery now. Power back on.
- Using a file manager on your phone or with your USB cable and your computer, go to Internal Storage > Android > Data and delete a folder called com.spotify.mobile.android.ui
- Reinstall Spotify from Google Play

I have done this and i have also cleared cache from settings in spotify. Spotify will still download to internal storage (even if its 95% full). I tested the SD card by downloading music to it and playing it from my phone, which works fine. I have also tried to format it from my phone

I cant find the spotify folder, but heres the strange thing... when i have synched spotify so that the 2gb of free space is gone... i cant find out where the data is stored.
When i enter the phone from my PC, i can see that there is 2gb less than before, but when i enter the "internal storage" and select all folders, it says that its only 500mb (450 which is simpsons tapped out xD), so... the spotify folder is hidden or something? I have marked "see hidden files", so its weird that it doesnt show up

Help is appreciated! 😄
