Is There A Spotify Portable App

/ Comments off

Use the app to play music files stored on your device, which we call local files.

Note: Files or downloads from illegal sources are not permitted.

The Spotify app will sync on your Portable Chrome installation. Now go to work, plug in the flashdrive and launch the Google Chrome Portable. Wait a few minutes for all of the apps & extensions to sync. Once they are done, click the spotify app in Chrome-Portable and voila, you have a Portable Spotify. You can listen to Spotify on your speaker and sound system by using the Spotify app on your phone and tablet as a remote. Also compatible with Chromecast Audio, and Apple AirPlay! For more information, check out Spotify Connect. The Spotify app is currently supported on 6 Samsung smartwatches. Supported devices are Gear S2 and S3, Gear Sport, and Gear Fit 2 and Fit 2 Pro and the Galaxy Watch. You will need a Spotify Premium account to use the offline Spotify features on your smartwatch. First, you will need to install the Spotify app on the watch.

For: Premium

  1. On desktop, import your local files (with the 'Desktop' steps).
  2. Add the files to a new playlist.
  3. Log in on your mobile or tablet using the same WiFi as your desktop.
  4. Go to Settings > Local Files and switch on Local audio files.
    Note: You need to allow Spotify to find devices in the prompt that shows.
  5. Download the playlist with your local files.

Music from that folder is now in Local Files in the menu on the left.

Supported file types

Note: Some of your files may be protected in restricted formats. Install QuickTime on your computer to allow most of these tracks to be played on Spotify.

  • .mp3
  • .m4p (unless it contains video)
  • .mp4 (if QuickTime is installed on your computer)

The iTunes lossless format (M4A) isn't supported.

If your file isn’t supported, we do our best to match it with songs from the Spotify catalog. The version we match with might differ from the original.
