Listening to Spotify without ads on PC, Android and iOS

Tired of the endless ad interruptions on Spotify Free? Ads can really dampen the enjoyment of music. Fortunately, there are effective methods to enjoy Spotify without ads! Whether through upgrading to Spotify Premium, recording with specialized tools like Audials One, or using VPNs and ad blockers – we show you all the options and evaluate which solution best suits you.

Good to know: No protection circumvented
Using the right tools, only unencrypted data is recorded from Spotify. US law tells that consumers won’t face legal action when recording.
To avoid that Spotify may possibly suspend accounts, it is better to use secure recording tools which are invisible to Spotify.

Listening to Spotify without ads is easy

The Best Ways to Listen to Spotify Without Ads

1. Upgrade to Spotify Premium

An obvious option is to upgrade to Spotify Premium. With Premium, you can listen to unlimited music without ad interruptions, skip tracks at will, and listen to music offline.
Cost: Spotify Premium currently costs $11.99 per month for individuals, $16.99 for a Duo account, and $19.99 for families.

However:

  • The monthly costs add up quickly.
  • You lose your music if you cancel your subscription.
  • Content availability remains dependent on Spotify’s licensing agreements.

If you want to permanently enjoy your favorite music or are looking for a more flexible alternative, there are other solutions.

2. Record Spotify on PC and Listen Without Ads

An excellent alternative to Spotify Premium is recording and converting Spotify tracks. Here we introduce you to the best tools with which you can enjoy Spotify without ads:

2.1 Audials One

With Audials One, you can record Spotify songs in the highest quality and automatically save them as individual, cleanly tagged files. This software allows you to permanently save songs locally and play them on any device. This way, you get your music from Spotify without ads.

Advantages

2.2 NoteBurner Spotify Music Converter

NoteBurner converts Spotify songs into different formats such as MP3, AAC, or WAV. It is easy to use and allows you to listen to your songs offline. However, it lacks a music manager and is slower than Audials One.

2.3 Sidify Spotify Music Converter

Sidify is another option to convert Spotify tracks at high speed. It supports multiple formats and retains the metadata of the songs. However, it does not reach the speed of Audials One.

2.4 MuConvert Spotify Music Converter

With MuConvert, you can convert Spotify songs into MP3 formats. User-friendly and focused on conversions, but less comprehensive for the permanent building of a music collection.

2.5 ViWizard Spotify Music Converter

ViWizard offers user-friendly features for converting and using Spotify content offline but does not support fast recording.

2.6 TunePat Spotify Music Converter

TunePat is a reliable converter for MP3 files. It is a good option for simple needs but records slower than Audials One.

3. VPN for PC and Mobile Devices

A VPN (Virtual Private Network) can be another method to block ads on Spotify. By encrypting your IP address, it prevents Spotify from recognizing that you are in a region where ads are active.

Disadvantages

VPNs offer a fast solution, but the long-term disadvantages make them less attractive for passionate music lovers. 

4. Ad Blockers 

Ad blockers are another way to block Spotify ads. They prevent ads from being displayed on websites or players.

Key deployments:

  • PC: Use browser add-ons like Adblock Plus.
  • Android: Install specific ad blocker apps from the Play Store.
  • iOS: Ad blocker apps can be integrated via Safari and other supported browsers.

Disadvantages

Ad blockers are useful for casual listeners, but they are not a long-term or comprehensive solution to listen to Spotify without ads.

Conclusion

If you want to enjoy Spotify without ads, there are many ways. An upgrade to Premium is convenient but costly and restrictive. VPNs and ad blockers offer limited reach and come with disadvantages.

The best option? Audials One. It offers you the freedom to permanently enjoy your favorite music, ad-free, in the highest quality. Save time and money while you build your perfect music collection.

Please note

If you register or subscribe to Spotify, you will agree to the Spotify terms of use. We recommend to read them carefully and to adhere to them.

According to the Copyright Law of the United States, “No action may be brought under this title [copyright law] alleging infringement of copyright […] based on noncommercial use by a consumer of [a digital audio recording device]”.

The Spotify music stream that Audials is able to record is not protected by effective copy-protection measures. Audials just records the unencrypted signal which is outputted to the system sound device.

Besides the background recording in realtime (1x speed), recording in high-speed (up to 30x) is available in Audials. When you start recording in high-speed, Audials communicates with the Spotify servers. When you record in 1x, Audials One does not communicate with Spotify servers.

The Spotify app could check your PC whether it is prepared for recording. So currently, you’d better only consider “secure” recording methods that protect your usage data by only recording music at realtime (1x) speed and that do not communicate directly with the Spotify servers. In Audials, this will be ensured if you use the recording from the Spotify website, not from the Spotify app.
