There’s a good chance you subscribe to Spotify. It’s the biggestย music streaming serviceย in the world, with more than double the market share of Apple Music. You may feel like you know the ins and outs but Spotify frequently adds new, advanced features. Here are a dozen to turn you into a Spotify power user.
1. Manage downloads
The best perks of being a Spotify Premium subscriber include being able to download tracks, albums and podcasts directly to your device so you can listen to them offline. This is ideal for people on a capped cellular plan or know theyโre traveling to a place without service.
The problem is that keeping tabs on your downloads โ especially if you download things across different categories, like albums, playlists and tracks โ is the opposite of intuitive. Even though Spotify doesnโt make it easy, you can still delete all your downloaded music.
Open the app, go to โYour Libraryโ and select the big โMusicโ tab at the top of your screen. Then select either Playlists or Albums, whichever you want to manage, and then youโll have to swipe up so that a search bar appears.
Select the Filters button, then select Downloads from the drop-down menu. From here, you can see all your downloaded playlists and albums, and then remove them one by one.
