How I Stopped Spotify From Constantly Deleting My Downloaded Music
1 min read
Summary
For Spotify users who download music and podcasts for offline listening, it is vital to ensure songs are not deleted, as offline content is erased if the app is not used for over 30 days, meaning the account is inactive.
The account login should also be avoided, as this clears the downloaded songs; Spotify wipes the cache to protect the data when logging out, and the downloads are removed.
Spotify has a download limit, with a maximum of 10,000 songs per device and a maximum of five devices, and users can encounter issues such as silent removals if they do not stay organized.
It is best to avoid reinstalling the app unless absolutely necessary, as this deletes all previous downloads.
Instead, users could clear the app’s cache on Android devices or restart the app on iOS, and select the Repair option in the app settings on Windows.
For Android users, try clearing the app’s cache or force-stopping Spotify. On iOS, try restarting the app or device. And on Windows, try the Repair option in the app settings.
