Spotify deleting downloaded Playists from iTunes

[italoarcos]

Hey!

I'm trying to download to my SD some playlists from my iTunes to my device to listen them offline, but the Spotiy on my device insists to delete the playlits that I have already downloaded 5 minutes ago. So, I have to download the playlist again, and again the Spotify delete it. 

Thanks!

Can you explain exactly what you are doing? I'm not sure whether you added itunes music as local files then synced them to mobile or something completely different.

Details of your device, android version and spotify version would be helpful.

I'm trying to sync with my itunes playlist local files over wifi. 

My device is Samsung Galaxy S8+, Android 7.0, Spotify app 8.4.23.784 armV7.

Thanks.

Do the files sync OK? It's just that you said spotify was deleting your playlists?

The files sync fine, but I always have to download the playlists again, because the app "undownload" them. Then I have to push the download button on the playlist and start syncing again.

Ah OK so it's just downloaded music undownloading which is happening to many other people. The closest I've seen to a solution is not to store the spotify cache on an SD card but you may want to contact Spotify support here.
