While Spotify’s recommendations and catalog are top-notch, the absence of Hi-Res and Lossless audio is probably making the ever-growing audiophile in you feel excessively limited. So, it’s understandable if you’re thinking about shifting over to Apple Music, which brings all those features to the table. But, starting all over again from scratch on a different service can be annoying. In that case, you can easily transfer your Spotify playlists to Apple Music and resume your listening. To help you out, we have listed the simplest ways to do that, so let’s take a look!
Sadly, Spotify and Apple Music don’t have a native functionality to let you transfer playlists. So, that leaves you at the mercy of third-party tools. While there are a lot of such third-party apps and tools out there that let you transfer your Spotify playlists to Apple Music, Tune My Music and Playlisty worked the best for me.
1. Using Tune My Music
The best thing about Tune My Music is that you don’t need an app to execute the transfer of your Spotify playlists to Apple Music. Instead, you can head over to your PC or mobile’s desired browser and access the web version. So, we used Microsoft Edge on a Windows PC to outline the steps. Take a look:
Note:if you have selected your Favorite Artists too from Spotify who are not available on Apple Music, TuneMyMusic will let you know that“Artists are not transferable to Apple Music”.
And, that’s it. You can simply head over to your Apple Music to find the transferred Spotify playlists. Note that during the transfer process, you will see some tracks being “missing”. This indicates that those tracks are missing in Apple Music’s catalog itself.
While music streaming services these days mostly share the same catalog, a lot of underrated tracks will still not be available across all of them. Also, TuneMyMusic’s free version lets you transfer 500 tracks. To transfer more, you will need to grab the premium which starts at $2 per month, billed annually. The monthly plan will set you at $4.5.
While users across the different platforms can use Tune My Music to transfer their Spotify playlists to Apple Music, iOS users can make use of another handy tool called Playlisty (Download, free). To use this iOS-only app, follow these steps:
Note:
Now, the free version of Playlisty allows you to save the first 20 tracks from all playlists. To save all of them, you will need to get the Pro paid tier.
With that, you should now be able to easily transfer your Spotify playlists to Apple Music, hassle-free. While I personally liked these tools, you can explore and see which suits you best. We also have a dedicated guide on how totransfer your Spotify playlists to YouTube Music, in case that’s what you’re looking for too. While you are switching to Apple Music, also check out otherSpotify alternatives.
That brings us to the end of this guide. But, do drop your related queries in the comments down below and I’ll get right back to you. While you’re at it, if you know of any other such cool tools, do let me know of them too.
