A Guide on Transferring a Spotify Playlist to Apple Music
Hey there! Today, I want to share with you a simple method to move your favorite Spotify playlist over to Apple Music. Whether you’ve found a killer playlist on Spotify and want to enjoy it on Apple Music, or you’re switching streaming platforms altogether, I’ve got you covered.
First things first, I’m going to assume you have both Spotify and Apple Music accounts, and that you’re using a computer.
Alright, let’s begin! Here’s how you can copy a Spotify playlist to Apple Music:
Step 1: Exporting the Spotify Playlist
Open up your Spotify desktop app and locate the playlist you wish to transfer. Once you’ve found it, right-click on the playlist and select the “Copy Playlist Link” option.
Now, open your web browser and paste the playlist link into the address bar. Press Enter and you’ll be directed to the Spotify web player. Make sure you’re logged in to your Spotify account.
On the right-hand side of the playlist page, you’ll see a button that says “…” Click on it and select “Copy Embed Code” from the menu.
Step 2: Converting the Playlist
Great! Now that you have the playlist’s embed code copied, head over to the Soundiiz website (soundiiz.com). Soundiiz is an awesome tool that lets you seamlessly transfer playlists between different music platforms.
Once you’re on the Soundiiz website, you’ll notice a big search bar. Paste the Spotify playlist’s embed code into that search bar, and hit the search button. Soundiiz will recognize the link and begin processing your playlist.
After a few moments, you’ll see a list of music platforms appear. Look for and click on the Apple Music icon. This will ensure that you transfer the playlist to Apple Music correctly.
Step 3: Transferring the Playlist to Apple Music
Almost there! You’re doing great. On the next page, you’ll be prompted to log in to your Apple Music account. Enter your login credentials, and then grant Soundiiz permission to access your Apple Music account. Don’t worry, this step is completely safe and secure.
Once you’ve completed the login process, you’ll see a screen displaying your Spotify playlist. Verify that the playlist is accurate and all the songs are there.
Finally, click the “Confirm” button to initiate the transfer. Soundiiz will work its magic and begin copying all your songs from Spotify to your Apple Music account. Depending on the size of the playlist, this might take a few moments, so be patient.
And voila! You’ve successfully copied your Spotify playlist to Apple Music. Now you can enjoy your favorite tunes on a different platform without any hassle.
I hope this guide has been helpful to you. Remember, technology is amazing, and with tools like Soundiiz, we can seamlessly transfer our favorite music between platforms. Give it a try and enjoy the flexibility to listen to your favorite songs wherever you are!
Take care, and happy playlist transferring!
I have a feeling that your combined Spotify playlist is too big and sentimental for you to let go of at this point. But what do you do if you just got a new iPhone or Mac and you’re loving what Apple Music has to offer? How can you migrate from Spotify to Apple Music without going through the trouble of creating your favorite playlists all over again? Well, I’m here to guide you through the process of easily copying a Spotify playlist to Apple Music.
How to Copy a Spotify Playlist to Apple Music
Unfortunately, Spotify and Apple Music don’t provide a tool that allows you to directly copy playlists to other services. So, we’ll have to use a third-party app for this task. The good news is that there are plenty of options available, and in this guide, we’ll be using an app called SongShift. You can find it on the App Store, and the best part is that it’s free!
- First, open the SongShift App on your iPhone.
- Next, connect your Apple Music and Spotify accounts from the list of available services. You can do this by selecting the respective options in the app. If you’re unsure how to do this, there will be instructions provided within the app itself. It’s a simple process, don’t worry!
- Once you’ve connected both accounts, tap the Continue button and then select Get Started to begin the playlist copying process.
- Now, at the top right corner of the screen, you’ll see a plus icon. Tap on it.
- Under the Spotify section, you’ll find an option labeled Playlist. Select it.
- You’ll see a list of your Spotify playlists. Find the one you want to transfer, tap the circle next to it, and then tap Confirm once you’re done.
- Now it’s time to select Apple Music.
- Review the transfer details, and once you’re satisfied, tap Start Shifts. Now all you have to do is wait for the matching process to be completed.
- After the matching process is finished, go back to the app’s main menu and tap on your playlist.
- Review the songs and tap Confirm Matches when you’re ready to proceed.
- Once everything is done, you’ll be able to see your Spotify playlist in your Apple Music account. How cool is that?
Remember, although SongShift is free, the free account allows you to transfer only one playlist at a time. If you’re planning on copying multiple Spotify playlists to Apple Music simultaneously, you’ll need a premium account, which starts at just $4.99 per month. On another note, you can also use SongShift to transfer your Spotify playlists to YouTube Music if that’s something you’re interested in.
How to Enable Sync Library on Apple Music
Sometimes, when using SongShift, you might encounter an error where the app can’t connect to your Apple Music account. This is most likely because the Sync Library setting is disabled. Don’t worry, I’ll show you how to enable it! Just follow these steps:
- I’ll walk you through opening the Settings app on your iPhone.
- Next, tap on Music.
- Make sure you have Sync Library enabled.
Once you’ve made the switch to Apple Music, it’s important to cancel your Spotify login to avoid any charges for the premium account.
Bringing Your Music to Apple Music
We’re hoping that both Spotify and Apple Music will find a way to make transferring playlists easier. While there are apps available that can help you with the transfer, it would be even better if the apps themselves had this feature. Now that you’re using Apple’s music streaming service, we have a guide to help you download all the songs in your Apple Music library.
