"Downloads" option disappeared from app!

[t_fanthorpe]

Hi there,

I recentlly upgrade my phone (5c to SE) and reinstalled the Spotify app. However, the 'downloads' option on the 'your library' tab is missing (screenshot attached).

I have tried reainstalling, with no luck, was wondering if anyone could help? The downloads section is much easier when offline than scrolling through my whole saved artist/albums library...

Cheers!

This was driving me nuts too, as I had downloaded a bunch of albums for a roadtrip, & then couldn’t find the downloads section under “Your Library” anymore.

After some poking around, it would appear that Spotify changed how this is done, without telling a soul. Bad form, but completely par for the course with Spotify, it would seem.

The following instructions apply to iOS:

Go to “Your Library”, & instead of expecting the “Downloads” section, select “Albums”. On the Albums screen, pull down while at the top of your list, & a Filter bar will appear, as well as a hamburger button in the top-right corner.

Select the hamburger button.

From here, you’ll get the option to filter your album list by the albums that you’ve downloaded.

Select “Downloads”, & the Albums list will now only display your offline albums.

Remove the filter in order to return to your full list of saved albums.

Hope this helps!!

Unfortunately this section has been discontinued from the app.

You can also choose to list only Downloads in Your Library:

1. Tap Your Library  in the menu at the bottom of the screen.
2. Tap Playlists, Songs, Albums, or Artists.
3. Pull down and release to display  at the top. Tap it.
4. Under Filter by, tap Downloads or Imported Music.
   Note: Filter options may vary depending on the list you’re filtering.
5. To return to the original list, repeat these steps and tap the selected filter again.
