Amazon Music offers millions of songs, but playing them offline in the Samsung Music app isn't always straightforward — especially if the tracks are protected by DRM. Samsung Music only supports local audio files like MP3 and FLAC, while most Amazon Music streams and downloads are encrypted and can't be transferred directly.
If you're wondering how to move Amazon Music to a Samsung phone or tablet and enjoy it offline without restrictions, you're in the right place. In this guide, we'll walk you through checking Amazon Music DRM protection, downloading or converting tracks to compatible formats, and transferring them to your Samsung device step by step. Let's dive in to play Amazon Music smoothly in the Samsung Music app.

Amazon Music is not compatible with Samsung Music, meaning you can't directly add Amazon Music songs to Samsung Music for Amazon Music's DRM protection. So, before transferring Amazon Music to Samsung Music, it's important to understand which Amazon Music files can be moved and which cannot.
- Purchased Amazon Music: Songs purchased from the Amazon Music Store are usually DRM-free and can be downloaded as MP3 files directly.
- Amazon Music Unlimited Downloads: These tracks are DRM-protected and stored as encrypted cache files. They can only be played inside the Amazon Music app and cannot be transferred to Samsung Music unless DRM is removed.
