SpotiFlyer APK — Open-Source Music Downloader

The description of SpotiFlyer APK — Open-Source Music Downloader

The SpotiFlyer APK is a free, open-source music downloader that pulls tracks, albums and whole playlists from Spotify, YouTube Music and a few other services, then saves them as MP3 you can play offline. No sign-up, no ads, no fiddling with API keys. Our editors tested it on real devices before writing this page. One honest note up front: SpotiFlyer was never on Google Play, so you get it from GitHub or F-Droid, or the button here. Every file we host is scanned for malware and installed on a real Android device by our editors before publishing, we have done this since 2018.

What is SpotiFlyer?

SpotiFlyer is a Kotlin Multiplatform app built by developer Shabinder Singh. You paste a link and it fetches the audio for you. It covers a wide range of sources, so most of your library is in reach.

• Supports Spotify, YouTube Music, Gaana, JioSaavn and SoundCloud.
• Grabs single tracks, full albums and whole playlists.
• 100% open source under the GPL-3.0 license, with no ads.
• No manual API-key setup — you just paste a link and go.
• Runs on desktop too (Windows, macOS and Linux), not only Android.

The Android package name is com.shabinder.spotiflyer. That is the name you should see if you ever check the file details.

How it works

The flow is simple. You copy a link to a track or a playlist and paste it into SpotiFlyer. The app then finds a matching version from a source like YouTube and saves the audio as an MP3 at the quality you pick.

Here is the honest part. SpotiFlyer does not crack or break Spotify's protected audio, and no downloader really can. It cannot pull the original DRM-locked file. Instead it matches the same song from an open source and downloads that. The result is usually close, but it is a match, not a direct copy of the Spotify stream.

Offline playback and sharing

Once a song is on your phone, the internet stops mattering.

• Saved tracks play without any connection, in any music player you already use.
• This helps a lot on trips, on the metro, or on a weak network where streaming stalls.
• The files are plain MP3s, so sharing one or moving it to another device is simple.
• No streaming subscription is needed to replay what you have already downloaded.

Is SpotiFlyer legal and safe?

Let's be straight with you. This is a grey area. SpotiFlyer is licensed under GPL-3.0 and is described by its developer as being for educational purposes. The app itself is open source, so anyone can read the code, and the file we host has been scanned before going live.

The catch is the content. Saving copyright-protected songs may be against the law where you live, and it can break the terms of service of Spotify, YouTube and the other platforms. The tool is legal; how you use it may not be. Use it responsibly and stick to music you have the right to keep.

Is SpotiFlyer discontinued?

Yes, and it is only fair to know that before you install. The project is no longer being updated. The developer has moved his focus to a newer app called Soundbound, so no fresh SpotiFlyer builds are planned. The version you find here is one of the final releases. It still runs, but do not expect new features or bug fixes going forward.

How to download and install SpotiFlyer APK

The official sources are GitHub releases and F-Droid, never Google Play, since Play does not allow this type of app. You can also use the Download button on this page, which serves the same latest version (around 8.1 MB, Android 5.0 and up).

1. Tap the green Download APK button at the top of this page, or grab it from the project's GitHub releases or F-Droid.
2. In your phone settings, allow installs from unknown sources for your browser or file manager (Settings → Security).
3. Open the downloaded file and confirm the install. SpotiFlyer needs Android 5.0 or newer.
4. Launch the app, paste a Spotify or YouTube link, pick your quality and save your first track.
