Spotify is great as long as you don’t hit a bump with some sync problem. Oh, there’s the issue of your premium account not getting activated (or recognized in mobile), but that’s often just a server glitch.

If local files from your Mac or PC don’t get synced with Spotify and instead, Spotify shows you ‘similar’ tracks that you can download instead, that’s going to be one big headache. This usually happens when you have music tracks with metadata that’s way too similar to the ones Spotify has on its server.

I have this issue as well. I have the Spotify app on my Apple Watch. I turn on my wireless headphones and everything else from Apple Watch plays through my headphones (Apple music, Nike Run Club etc.). But when I go to use Spotify it plays through my phone. When I try to change the device Spotify plays through, my headphones aren't an option. To do this, head to the “Preferences” menu. On Windows, click Edit Preferences. Mac users will need to head to the menu bar and press Spotify Preferences instead. For Android users, press the settings gear icon on the “Home” tab. By default, Spotify’s volume normalization setting is enabled. User Configuration/ Administrative Templates/ Start Menu and Taskbar/ Notifications Now, look for an entry present at the right side of the screen named “ Turn off toast notifications on the lock screen ”. Double click it to change its settings. Once in the settings, set the policy as Not Configured or Disabled. Your Mac asks you to enter the name and password of an administrator account when it needs to verify that you have permission to make changes. For example, you must authenticate as an administrator when you click the lock in System Preferences, enter certain commands in Terminal, or set a firmware password. The password of the administrator account should not be blank. If not, head to the Spotify Settings Show Advanced Settings Proxy, and make sure it's set to 'No' before trying again. If that doesn't do the trick, try reinstalling Spotify to see if it helps. As a last resource, you can try downloading the Spotify installer here.
Why does this happen? The issue crops up mostly when you’ve got fan-versions of a popular song, or remixes and other modifications that leave pretty much of the metadata intact. This makes Spotify think that you’re trying to upload a song that’s already up there and so, it prevents sync and offers to let you grab the cloud versions.
Too bad, eh. But there’s a quick fix.
This is what you should try if Spotify not syncing Local Files to iPhone:

Step 7. That’s about it.
When you add more songs to this playlist, they get synced. Make sure you don’t turn off the offline sync feature.
Note that there’s a limit to the number of offline songs you can have on your device (each).
That’s all folks!
