Downloading Playlists to Computer

Downloading Playlists to Computer

Hi everyone!!

I have been expierencing some trouble downloading playlists to my chrombook (laptop) You see, I have just joined premium and I have sucessfully downloaded my playlist to my phone however I would like to have it on my computer as well. I have seen this webpage https://support.spotify.com/us/listen_everywhere/on_phone_tablet_desktop/listen-offline/

and I understand the directions given, but I cannot find a download button as shown in the picture on that link ANYWHERE!!! If anyone has been expierencing the same problem or knows the solution, PLEASE let me know, thanks! 🙂

Also, as you can see from the file I have attached, my sceen does not look like the screen from the website!

From what it looks like, I think u might be streaming Spotify through an internet browser? Let me know because Im not 100% sure but that's what it looks like.

If thats the case, I recommend downloading the actual spotify application, it is much faster and has many more features such as downloading music to listen to offline. 

Hope this helps!

I'm not sure if this is the web browser or not I am pretty sure it is tho - wish I could be of more help! How would I download the app? I tried clicking the download button on the right hand of my screen at the bottom and then I select chrome book because that's what I have and it just brings me to the same website!

Sorry for all the trouble! I have been reading some other spotify community member's post that seemed to have a very similar problem, all of which use chrome books. Pretty sure that the problem and you cannot download the app with a chromebook. I think spotify needs to try and find a way to change this because I am getting premium and cant get it on all my devices! Not to mention a large handful of people have chromebooks and would like to be able to listen to music offline on here because I have storage issues on my phone.

Hello again!

I looked into it again and you are correct. For some reason ,using a chromebook only allows the use of Spotify through using the web player. We will start suggesting a change to this so chrome book users have access to all the features that Spotify provides.

Have a nice day!
