How to Download a Spotify Playlist (Song by Song)

You've got the perfect playlist — the one for running, the one from your trip, the one that sums up your year — and you want to take it offline outside Spotify. Let's be honest here: there's no magic button that downloads an entire Spotify list as a ZIP. What you can do, and what actually works, is save its songs one by one as MP3 with PullVid. In this guide we walk you through that real method, no smoke and mirrors.

Why there's no bulk download (and who promises it anyway)

Spotify's audio is protected with DRM and can't be extracted directly. PullVid gets each song by looking up that same track on YouTube using its artist and title, and it does so one at a time. Any site that promises to "download your entire Spotify playlist with one click" or a ZIP file with everything inside either doesn't work or is bait to serve you ads. The honest approach is what we do: song by song, with full control over what you save.

How to download the songs in a playlist

1. Open the playlist in Spotify: in the app or on the website, go into the list you want to save.
2. Copy the first song's link: tap its three dots → Share → Copy Song Link.
3. Paste it into PullVid: in the search field, and choose MP3.
4. Download and repeat: tap Download, go back to the playlist, and do the same with the next song.

A trick to keep your place

If the list is long, keep track of where you are. Open the playlist in one tab and PullVid in another: copy a link, paste it, download, and go back to the list for the next one. Going song by song has the advantage of only downloading the ones you truly want, without filling your phone with tracks you might never listen to. Each file arrives clean, with no watermark.

What quality will the songs be

Each MP3 will have the quality of the audio available on YouTube for that track; we don't make up numbers or promise "320 kbps" for the whole list. For listening to the playlist on your phone, in the car, or with regular headphones, the result is more than enough.

Start with your first song

The method is simple, if manual: copy, paste, download, repeat. Open PullVid, start with the first track on your list, and keep going. Remember to keep it personal — listening to the music yourself — and keep supporting the artists on Spotify. If it's just a single song, check the dedicated guide on downloading a Spotify song.
