Tidal/Spotify offline playback has been discussed many times in this thread, without clear answers. Neither Tidal nor Spotify support offline tracks on remote storage. Therefore it is not possible to use the SDXC card on the Poly for offline storage – you'll need to save offline tracks locally on the phone. The next question is how to play an offline track and send the audio stream to Poly. For iOS, it appears that it might be possible by using Poly as an AirPlay device. For Android it is not so clear, but there are AirPlay emulator apps that might work. All of this has been speculation by thread participants, and Chord has not stepped in with answers.
Thanks, I read through the thread but never saw the part about no support for remote storage.
And that puts me and a lot of people out of the Poly. To me, it is useless if I can't play TIDAL lossless files on the SDXC card. It would be much easier to leave the Mojo attached to the phone. But I have a Google Nexus 5X, which doesn't have a card slot, so that option doesn't work for me either.
So now I need to decide if I resurrect an old phone (if I can find one), or buy a new one, to plug in to the Mojo, OR buy a standalone DAP.
