Server Version#: 1.43.5.11079-720011079  
Player Version#: v4.50.21-beta 13

I’m not actually sure if it was ever there but I note that I can’t currently view my downloads ‘offline’ mode on my android tablet in the same way I can on my android phone … the ‘offline’ option selector just isn’t there above the library selector.

Currently on v4.50.21-beta 13 on both devices.

Do you have the option on the Downloads tab?

OK, I’m admitting it … I’m officially an idiot 🤦🏻‍♂️

I had removed all of the legacy downloads from my tablet and planned to refresh following the creation of the offline mode given how cool it is.

Now I see that the app is clever enough to not offer the offline mode when there are no downloads 🙄

I’ve just downloaded some albums and and guess what? Yip, the option appears 😬

All good … apologies for the confusion!
