Song is broken because of deleting mp3 on mobile

Song is broken because of deleting mp3 on mobile

So my problem is: My phone informed me about that I've got like 20 tracks downloaded on my phone as MP3 from my playlists. I just thought "Why do I need those? I can save some MB." but I wasn't sure what was going to happen when I'd delete them.
So at least I tried to delete just 1 song first - switched back into my Spotify-app and wanted to see if the song can still be played. But then the shock: I couldn't stream it anymore. I tried to download it again, save it again - nothing worked. The song seems to be fully broken or something - bc when I try to play the song from like the mid it directly jumps back at the beginning and tries to "play" again but you can't hear anything.
I still can play the song on my computer as well as on my tablet but on my phone it doesn't work at all..

So hopefully some of you guys can help me so that I can hear my song on my phone again.

Thank you so much in advance !!

Hey @Julius_21,

 

What would that song be? Look for it in the online Spotify library, and if it's available, save it to your playlist so it replaces your imported mp3. Doing that will make Spotify stream it from the cloud instead of looking for the local file.

 

Hope it helps. 🙂

Hey @osornios,

 

thank you for your response!

I'm sure that your advise is also very helpful, but I recently just found my solution in the Spotify FAQ to just uninstall and then re-install the Spotify-App - and it worked!

 

I just had to download my playlists once again and all my songs could be streamed again.

 

But thanks for your answering mate 🙂 Much appreciate !!
