No service? Spotify's 'offline backup' saves your tunes for a rainy day

No need to take up even more of your phone's storage for your Spotify playlists.

Offline Backup is a playlist on your "Home" tab that collects your music data from your recently played to give you tunes if your signal drops. As detailed in a Newsroom post, mobile users are beginning to receive "Offline Backup," a feature that compiles your music into a playlist ready to go without cell service. Users can toss in details like a specific genre, decade, mood, favorite artist, and more to create a unique, personal playlist.
