This article will specifically explain to you the methods and specific steps to delete Spotify account on Android, Mac and other systems. I believe this will definitely help you.

Part 1: What Should You Know If You Want to Delete Spotify?

Before deleting a Spotify account, you must understand the following points, otherwise you may not be able to delete the Spotify account or you may encounter some troubles after you delete the Spotify account.
1. About Spotify premium subscription

Because users need to pay to get Spotify's Premium subscription, Spotify does not allow accounts with Premium subscriptions to be deleted. Therefore, if you have a Spotify Premium subscription, then you cannot delete your Spotify account directly. Before deleting your Spotify account, you must cancel the subscription. If you don't know how to cancel Spotify Premium, you can check out How to Cancel Spotify Premium on Android? or How to Cancel Spotify Premium on iPhone? After Spotify confirms that your account belongs to the free version, you can refer to the method I introduced above to delete your Spotify account.

2. About music you downloaded from Spotify

After deleting your Spotify account, the playlists in your Spotify account will also be deleted. Therefore, you can download and save your favorite music from Spotify before deleting your Spotify account. However, if you uninstall Spotify and delete your Spotify account, you will not be able to play these music files. Due to various reasons such as copyright and security, Spotify add DRM protection to all its music files. After Spotify adds DRM protection, these music files will only be recognized and played by Spotify. Therefore, even if you download music from Spotify, due to the protection of DRM, you will not be able to use music playback software other than Spotify to play these music files.
