I have downloaded my playlists, does Spotify still use data if listen to them with 4G activated?

I have downloaded my playlists, does Spotify still use data if listen to them with 4G activated?

Basically do downloaded Playlist still consume data if I listen to them while I'm in online mode?

In theory no. If you want to be certain enable Offline Mode. The reason I say in theory is that it can grab stuff like album art and lyrics plus it will still occasionally redownload stuff you've already got. When it does this you will see it is downloading with the little arrow top left. So in theory it's no need to use data playing a downloaded song but just go Offline Mode to be sure. I think...

The thing is I didnt want to put Spotify on offline because sometimes I
change songs to some I don't have in my playlists, but yeah it seems like
Spotify is consuming less since I downloaded the playlists so your theory
is probably correct
