How to download music from Spotify and similar apps
The first thing we are going to have to do is download from this same link the installation apk of the application that responds to the name Syncios Audio Recorder. Once downloaded and installed in the usual way, remember to have enabled from Settings/Security the option that allows us to install applications from unknown sources, we can literally record or download music directly from Spotify, the radio or any music player application for Android. Ah! And rest assured that the notification sounds of our Android, as well as the ringtones or sounds collected by the integrated microphone itself, will not be recorded by the application.
Once installed we will look for it in the application box of our Android and we will run it for the first time by clicking on it. When it asks you for Superuser permissions, remember to click on always remember.
It will show us a floating and persistent balloon or icon like the one I show you just above these lines. By clicking on it we will have access to its only four functions which are the following:
The first icon in the form of a double circle that is to start the audio recording and end it, a second icon from which we will have access to the application settings to change the download directory of the recorded music, enable the application, seconds of wait to start the recording, an audio encoder to select the audio encoding that at the moment only allows us the mp3 option and finally the audio bitrate option to select qualities from 64 kps to 256 kbps.
We will still have two icons to comment, the third in the form of a list with a musical note that will take us directly to the download directory of the recorded files, and the last of all in the form of an X from which by double-clicking it allows us to close by complete the application.
To use the application and start recording or downloading music from Spotify, Apple Music, Google Play Music and many other streaming music playback apps, we just have to open the desired application, for example, Spotify, hit the record button in the floating icon of the app, that is to say the first of all, and then select from Spotify or similar the song or theme to listen to so that the Syncios Audio Recorder app does its magic and begins to record and download the music played in mp3 format via selected audio streaming app.
In the end, with the installation of this free application for Android, as I mentioned at the beginning of the post, we will manage to feel, especially those of us who are from the fabulous era of double-deck equipment and gas station cassettes, feel like children recording and looking for those songs to download them just as we did not so long ago.
