My Question or Issue
So I'm having the weirdest issue with Spotify on my phone. Everything used to work perfectly fine up until a few days ago, when I noticed that some tracks in my downloaded playlists didn't play right. I'm talking completely distorted/jumbled/glitchy audio. It's hard to explain but basically it seems like the files got corrupted. So I tried everything from clearing the cache to reinstalling the app, nothing changed. Every time I download them again, it's the same story. And it's always the same specific songs.
So I did some digging in my phone's files and found all the songs that didn't work in the LocalSync folder (full path in attached screenshot). Weird thing is, if I try to play those on my computer, they play just fine. I also tried deleting those specifically but when I download them again it's still the same jumbled up mess on spotify
I really don't know what's happening here, I've never seen any thing like this.. I hope someone here knows how to fix this
Edit: as for the first screenshot, the glitching songs are the ones that don't have the "downloaded" arrow next to them even though they clearly are downloaded. But I do feel like they always take a lot less time to download than the rest so maybe there's something to this
