You cannot play offline music stored in your device or SD card. That's a big turn off if you don't have data to stream or play music

yes you can play music stored on your phone or sdcard.. try exploring the app a bit and you'll find it..besides this days streaming is the better option than hoarding a truck load of songs you don't listen to often...you stream what you feel like listening or make a playlist online..easy

you can

Click on songs instead of downloads or maybe it's for premium users so incase that's true which I doubt

Or reinstall the app and don't register it for online usage

i don't know why but I like it and I use it

And I used to play my offline songs through the app

It separated my premium songs from my offline songs


I could listen to the both offline unlike apple Music which I'll have to stream

Just finally installed YouTube music. And yes, it doesn't load local music...totally.
I have 1000+ careful curated music and it didn't load any.
I trimmed it down to 20 or so and it loaded.

Well, I guess it's actually not worthwhile.
BlackPlayer has been my default and will remain to be so.
IMO, nothing really beats playing music locally especially if you make interstate movements or network is very inconsistent.

YouTube music is actually a very good player.... I have been using it for like 3 months now, its my main player, it plays local music.... For those complaining of music not being stored on device.... Netflix isn't saving on ur devices also, Boom player also stopped saving on device, so I see no ish about that.... Its actually the best audio app if you pay for the service.. I pay 1600 month because I do family plan...

Exit your Google Play Music app, go to settings=apps=play music= clear cache. Then off your internet, open the play music again, you can now use your old playmusic.

NB: whenever you want to open playmusic, always off your internet

I rather use deezer to scream than YouTube music.

They should they should better bring back Google play music, perhaps in the nearest futures, they'll change Google photos to YouTube, infact all Google apps will soon be YouTube's

and why is that, is it because they don't allow people to listen to songs once they leave the app except on premium?

That is even better than deezers method of going through random sings before getting to the song you want to to listen to, that would on my make sense if you like most of the songs of an artist

I've tried most of the major music players and Spotify stands on top but since we in this region don't have access to it

YouTube music is the next in line to me

The reason why majority abroad use Spotify is because you can listen to songs outside the app and without skipping much like deezer which for some reason gives you 6skips per hour not that you'll end up getting to the song you want for free only that you'll experience ads

I don't think you've used Deezer.

Re: Google Play Music Discontinued : How To Install It Back by Flytime: 12:28pm On Nov 11, 2020

I'm guessing you're on premium

I've used deezer non premium and it's not worth it

Right now except Spotify I can only see myself paying for YT music premium

you can't play music on YouTube music when you're out of the app. You need to be in the ap before it plays or you purchase the premium version

I didn't argue that fact

That's their way of making you get premium
