Hi @ajmjrm2017,

 

Welcome to the Spotify Community!

 

Could you let us know if the option to "Move to SD" does show up within the app or is it giving you any error messages? Also, is your SD configured as internal or external storage?

 

Let's try the following:

  1. Remove the SD card from your phone.
  2. Reinstall Spotify but don't open it yet.
  3. Place SD card back into your phone (preferably, after formatting)
  4. Open Spotify.
Let us know if this works for you.

Click on move to SD and your playlist should be transferred 

Then how do i open the music file (play list) on the SD card, to play on my
phone? Sorry I'm illiterate (blonde) Thanks

How do I format the SD?

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:

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

 

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.
