Missing the SD card option for storage

Solved!

Missing the SD card option for storage

Hi all, i was looking through my phone the other day when i noticed my used storage had increased by a lot, even though i just cleared alot of it. Then i noticed that all my spotify music was moved from my SD card back to my phone, and the option to move it back isnt there anymore in the settings.
Any help??

Hey @sulley00

 

I found this post:

https://community.spotify.com/t5/Android/How-to-store-offline-music-on-the-external-SD-card-on-andri...

 

"Just make sure you have an Android/data/com.spotify.music folder on your external SD card. Once this folder exists, a new option Storage is available on Spotify Settings. There you can swith to SD Card. Worked for me on Adroid 5.0."

 

Someone else said to just go to that location and create a folder titled that.

 

I also found another post:

They said:

 

1. delete downloaded songs

 

2. go to device storage/android/data -> move com.spotify.music to SD memory card /android/data (It might already be there i'd just overwrite it, donno if it matter or not)

 

3. download songs

 

Hopefully that helps! I had the same problem and I can't remember what I did, but I think I just did the second one which is to move the folder to the SD card.
