How do you get a song from a Premium Spotify account into an iTunes library?

The Spotify app on Windows Phone is disgracefully slow and unresponsive, want to transfer your Spotify Music to Windows Phone and play them without Spotify app? In the post, we will show you a great alternative solution to play Spotify Music on Windows Phone.

The last version of Spotify on Windows Phone is around 1 year old. The app users currently use in Windows 11 Mobile is the Windows Phone 8.1 app. The essential functionality like "Spotify Connect" is still missing, and till now, it seems that there is no plan for a Windows Phone 10 app with adding this feature. Worse, the performance of Spotify app on Windows Phone is awful as feedback:

-- "App crashes all the time, won't load playlists, stops playing music if you switch apps and go back to Spotify. Missing loads of features such as casting music to other devices."

-- "Damn slow to load. Doesn't seem to want to run searches and gets stuck. Not the most enjoyable app to use. iPad version is so much better. Why not rework it and improve it?"

-- "Repeatedly refuses to accept, I have a Premium account and takes all my downloaded playlists off. Sometimes won't open at all and often stops working mid song..."

With the decline of the Windows Phone's consumer base, Spotify is also dropping support for its Windows Phone app. That's really a bad news for some windows Phone's users. So in order to avoid problems caused by Spotify suddenly cancels support for its Windows Phone App one day, an easy and stable alternative solution is needed.
