如果您是Spotify 高级版(Spotify premium)的新手,或者您从未真正使用过离线收听功能(listening feature),在本文中,您将了解如何在Spotify上下载音乐以进行离线收听。我们将介绍如何在桌面应用程序(desktop app)和移动应用程序中执行此操作。

当您选择下载图标(download icon)时,Spotify 应用程序(Spotify app)将开始将该专辑或播放列表(album or playlist)中的每首曲目下载到您的设备。
当您看到曲目标题(track title)下方出现相同的箭头图标时,您就会知道这些曲目何时可用于离线收听。
如果您看到此图标,您可以随时选择并收听该曲目,即使您没有互联网连接也是如此。
如果您正在使用笔记本电脑和旅行(laptop and traveling),无论您身在何处,这都是欣赏您喜爱的音乐的好方法。此功能最常见的用途是即使在飞行时也能收听整个播放列表。而且您无需购买互联网访问权限即可。
下载个人音乐曲目(Download Individual Music Tracks)
如果您不想在Spotify上下载整个(Spotify)音乐播放列表(music playlist),而是想收集单独的音乐曲目以供离线收听(offline listening),该怎么办?

当您找到要离线收听的曲目时,只需右键单击该曲目,选择添加到播放列表(Add to playlist),然后选择现有播放列表或选择(playlist or select) 添加到新播放列表(Add to new playlist)以创建新播放列表。

打开您的媒体库,然后从菜单中选择播放列表。(Playlists)您将在播放列表上看到可供离线收听的下载图标。
在您疯狂下载Spotify上的许多播放列表之前,请记住,您下载的每个播放列表都会占用计算机硬盘驱动器上的空间。

(Download Music)使用移动应用(Mobile App)在Spotify上(Spotify)下载音乐
您可以下载适用于 Android(Spotify for Android)或iOS 设备(iOS devices)的 Spotify 。通过移动应用程序离线收听提供了最大的灵活性,因为无论您走到哪里,您都将拥有所有您喜爱的音乐。(music right)

How to Download Music on Spotify for Offline Listening
Spotify is оne of the most popular music streaming serνices in use today. If yoυ have a free Spotify account you can enjoy lots of great musical content, but you also need to have an internet connection available. With a premіum Spotify aсcоunt, you сan download as mυch musіc aѕ your device can hold and listen to it all offline.
If you’re new to Spotify premium, or you’ve never actually used the offline listening feature, in this article you’ll learn how to download music on Spotify for offline listening. We’ll cover how to do it in both the desktop app and the mobile app.
Download Music on Spotify With the Desktop App
You can download Spotify for Mac, Windows, or Linux. The desktop version includes the offline listening feature if you have a premium Spotify account.
Downloading Entire Playlists
To use this feature, just search for and select any playlist or album on Spotify. Look for a small down arrow icon next to the green “like” heart icon.
When you select the download icon, the Spotify app will start downloading every track in that album or playlist to your device.
You’ll know when those tracks are available for offline listening when you see the same arrow icon appear under the track title.
If you see this icon, you can select and listen to that track any time, even if you don’t have an internet connection.
If you’re using a laptop and traveling, this is a great way to enjoy your favorite music no matter where you are. The most common use of this feature is to listen to entire playlists even when you’re flying. And you won’t have to purchase internet access to do it.
Download Individual Music Tracks
What if you don’t want to download an entire music playlist on Spotify, but instead you’d like to collect individual music tracks for offline listening?
Individual tracks in the desktop app don’t include a download icon, and at first glance it looks like this might be impossible. However, there’s a workaround to make this possible.
When you find a track that you’d like to listen to offline, just right-click the track, select Add to playlist, and either select an existing playlist or select Add to new playlist to create a new one.
Once you have all of the individual tracks you want to download collected into your own custom playlist, open the playlist.
You’ll see the same down arrow icon under the playlist title, just like the one that was available in any of the existing Spotify playlists or albums.
Once all of the tracks inside that playlist are downloaded, you can play any of them offline. You’ll know when a playlist is available offline when you view the playlist in your library.
Open your library, and select Playlists from the menu. You’ll see the downloaded icon on the playlist that’s available for offline listening.
Before you go crazy downloading many playlists on Spotify, just remember that every playlist you download will consume space on your computer’s hard drive.
Most modern computers have very large hard drives and plenty of expendable space. However, if you’ve already consumed that space with large games or a photography collection, your available space for these music downloads may be limited.
Download Music on Spotify With the Mobile App
You can download Spotify for Android or for iOS devices. Offline listening via the mobile app offers the most flexibility because you’ll have all your favorite music right in your hand no matter where you go.
This is great if you go hiking, camping, or otherwise travel “off the grid” often. You’ll never have to worry about being without your favorite tunes.
Downloading Entire Episodes
You’ll find a number of options in the mobile app to download content for offline listening. From the main page, if you see podcasts or episodes you’d like to listen to offline, just open them.
With the episode open, you’ll see the down arrow icon to the right of the share icon next to the Play button.
You can also download the episode or podcast from the menu. If you tap the three dots menu at the top of the episode window, you’ll see the Download option listed at the top of the menu.
Downloading Entire Playlists
To download music in Spotify playlists, like the desktop app, you need to download the entire playlist. To do this, open the playlist and you’ll see a toggle switch under the Shuffle Play button.
Turn this on to download the playlist.
When you view your playlists in your library, you can identify the playlists you’ve downloaded by the green down arrow icon underneath the playlist title.
Select these playlists to listen to them any time, even if you have no internet connection. These are the only playlists that will work when you’re offline.
Downloading Individual Tracks
Just like with the desktop app, you can also download individual tracks in the mobile app by adding those tracks to your own custom playlists.
Just open the menu of the track you want to download and select Add to Playlist. Either select an existing playlist, or select New Playlist to add it to a new one.
Once your playlist is ready with all of the tracks you want to download, just open the playlist and enable the toggle to the right of Download. This will download every track in the playlist for offline listening.
Filtering Downloads and Download Settings
There are a couple of other things you’ll need to know if you want to optimize your use of offline Spotify content.
When viewing your playlists in the library, tap the Filters button to open the Filter menu. Select Downloads to see only the playlists that are available for offline listening.
There are also a couple of settings in the Spotify settings menu that let you customize downloads.
Access Spotify settings by tapping the gear icon at the upper right of the main Spotify window. In the Settings window, scroll down until you see the download settings. The following settings are available:
- Download Quality: You can adjust the quality of your downloads from Normal to Very High. Keep the lowest quality setting (Normal) for your downloaded tracks to use the least amount of space on your device.
- Download using cellular: If you have a cellular plan with limited data, you’ll want to turn off this setting. This will limit downloading playlists and tracks to only when your device is connected to a Wi-Fi network with an internet connection.
