Tidal is a music streaming service allowing users to download Tidal music to mobile phones for offline listening. When you download a song from Tidal, it’s saved as an encoded file limited to be opened with the Tidal app. Even if you locate the downloaded file and transfer it to your USB, it couldn’t be used for normal playback.
