How to Upload Spotify Songs to Google Drive [the Ultimate Guide]

Step 1. Convert Spotify Music to MP3 for Google Drive

Converting music is the key to getting digital tracks like Spotify onto Google Drive, and a tool like ViWizard Spotify Music Converter makes it easy. It can remove DRM restrictions from your tracks and turn them into audio formats supported by Google Drive, including MP3, FLAC, and WAV. Once converted, you can back up your music safely on Google Drive and access it anywhere, anytime. It's all about freedom and convenience.

What You Need: ViWizard Music Coneverter

Which content you can download and convert with ViWizard depends on your account type and what you want to save. If you're a free user, most songs, playlists, and podcasts are available to convert. Some audiobooks or Premium-only content might require a pre-purchase or Premium access. Most of the time, you don't need a full subscription for your music library.

For music management, ViWizard ensures lossless output and preserves full ID3 tags, both of which are important for a good listening experience once your files are uploaded to Google Drive or used elsewhere, like in a Slides presentation. Your tracks also stay organized according to how you customize them in the program. Once converted, your music becomes part of your personal library that you can manage however you like.

Step 1Install ViWizard Spotify Music Converter

To start, download and install ViWizard Spotify Music Converter on your Windows or Mac computer. Once installed, open the program and log in to your Spotify account. ViWizard works with both free and Premium accounts, and its built-in Spotify player makes it easy to browse playlists, albums, and individual tracks directly within the app without switching back to Spotify.

Step 2Select the Spotify Playlists or Tracks You Want

Next, select the music you want to save. Use the search bar to find your favorite playlists, albums, or specific songs, or paste a Spotify link to add particular tracks. Click the + button to add them to your download list. Whether it's a single track, an entire album, or a full playlist, you can choose exactly what you want to convert.

Step 3Choose MP3 as Your Output Format

Before converting, go to Preferences > Convert and select MP3 as the output format. MP3 files are widely compatible and ideal for uploading to Google Drive. You can also adjust audio quality, bit rate, or sample rate, and organize files by artist, album, or playlist to keep your music library tidy and easy to navigate.

Step 4Convert and Save Your Music

Finally, click the Convert button to start. ViWizard will remove Spotify's DRM protection and save the selected tracks as MP3 files on your computer. When the conversion is complete, click the folder icon to open the saved files. These MP3s are now ready to be uploaded to Google Drive, allowing you to safely store, play, and share your Spotify music from any device.

Step 2. Upload Spotify Songs to Google Drive

After converting your music, uploading it to Google Drive is simple. You can use the web interface or the Google Drive app on your computer or phone. Both drag-and-drop and the built-in upload feature work. Google Drive gives you 15GB of free storage for all your files, so if you already store photos, videos, or documents, check your remaining space to see if it's enough for your converted audio files. For more space, you can sign up for Google One, which starts at $2 per month for 100GB of storage and additional perks. With everything in Drive, your Spotify music is safe and easy to access anytime.

1. On your computer, go to drive.google.com and sign in to your account.
2. Create a new folder for your Spotify music or navigate to an existing folder. To create a folder, click New > Folder, name it, and click Create.



3. Open the folder. Click File upload or Folder upload, then locate your converted Spotify music on your computer. You can also drag and drop the files directly into the folder.



4. Wait for the upload to complete. You'll see a progress bar showing the upload status.
5. Once uploaded, your music is safely stored in Google Drive and accessible from any device with internet access.

Step 3. Play Spotify Music Stored in Google Drive

Want to preview your uploaded audio files? Google Drive supports playback for common formats like MP3, FLAC, and WAV. Just click on a file in Drive to start listening.

1. Open Google Drive on your computer or mobile device.
2. Navigate to the folder containing your uploaded Spotify music.
3. Click on a song (MP3, FLAC, or WAV) to play it. Google Drive will open its built-in audio player.
4. Use the playback controls to play, pause, skip, or repeat tracks. You can listen without downloading the files.
5. To listen offline, right-click the file and select Download to save it on your device.

Step 4. Access Spotify Music on Google Drive Across Devices

One major advantage of storing music on Google Drive is access across multiple devices. Phones, tablets, and computers can all play your files as long as you're signed into your Drive account. This means your playlists are always available, whether you're at home, on the go, or visiting a friend.

1. Sign in to your Google account on any device (phone, tablet, or computer).
2. Open Google Drive and navigate to the folder containing your Spotify music.
3. Click a file to play it, or tap Download to save it locally for offline use.
4. Your music is now accessible wherever you are, without needing the Spotify app installed.

Step 5. Share Spotify Music from Google Drive

Sharing music is easy with Google Drive. Enter your friends' email addresses and grant the proper permissions. You can allow others to view, download, or listen to the files without affecting your originals. It's similar to sending a gift — just a few details to set, and your friends get access instantly.

1. Right-click the folder or file you want to share in Google Drive.
2. Click Share.



3. To share with specific people, enter their email addresses in the Add people and groups field. By default, they're set as Editor, which allows them to make changes. Click the dropdown to change it to Viewer or Commenter if needed.
4. Add a message if you want, then click Send. The recipients will get an email with a link to access the music.



5. To create a shareable link, right-click the file or folder and click Get link. The default is Restricted, meaning only people you shared with can open it. Click the dropdown to select Anyone with the link. Then choose whether they can View, Comment, or Edit, and click Copy link.

Step 6. Add Spotify Music from Google Drive to Google Slides

If you're creating a Slides presentation, you can pull your converted music from Drive to add background tracks. This helps set the mood or highlight key points. Use the Insert > Audio option in Slides, and your files will play seamlessly across devices during your presentation.

1. Open your Google Slides presentation.
2. Click Insert > Audio.
3. Select the audio file from your Google Drive folder containing the converted Spotify music.
4. Use the playback options to adjust start time, looping, or volume as needed.
5. Your music will play during your presentation on any device.

Pro Tip: Import Google Drive Audio Files Back into Spotify

To use Drive-stored music in Spotify, first download the files to your device. Then enable Local Files in Spotify and add the tracks to your playlists. Once set up, you can mix your converted music with streaming tracks and create offline playlists easily.

1. Download the audio files from Google Drive to your computer.



2. Open Spotify on desktop, click your Profile icon, then select Settings.
3. Scroll to Local Files and click Add a Source.



4. Navigate to the folder with your downloaded Drive music, select it, and click Open.



5. Turn on the toggle for that source.
6. Go to Your Library > Local Files. Your Google Drive music is now available to play or add to playlists.
