Spotify has introduced a built-in playlist importer that lets users transfer playlists directly from other streaming services into Spotify — without relying on external tools or websites. Powered by TuneMyMusic technology, the new importer reduces the biggest point of friction when switching streaming platforms and makes it easier than ever to organise your music in one place.
Spotify’s new in‑App playlist importer
Spotify now lets you import playlists directly from the mobile app using TuneMyMusic technology. This is the first time playlist migration has been fully supported inside Spotify, removing the need for external tools.
How it works
- Open Spotify on iOS or Android and go to Your Library.
- Scroll to the bottom and tap Import your music.
- Choose the source service (Apple Music, YouTube Music, Amazon Music, Deezer, TIDAL, etc.).
- Select the playlists you want to transfer.
- Imported playlists appear in your Spotify Library — the originals remain untouched.
Although useful, Spotify is arriving slightly later to this feature than some of its competitors. Deezer, Apple Music, and other platforms introduced playlist importers earlier in 2025, reflecting a wider industry push toward easier service switching. Spotify’s update now brings it in line with that trend and removes one of the biggest barriers to consolidating playlists in one place.
Why this update matters
For listeners considering a switch from another streaming platform, losing years of playlists has been one of the biggest obstacles. Spotify’s new importer removes that barrier and lets users keep their original playlists in place while adding them to Spotify.
For playlist creators and curators, the update also improves creativity and control. With transitions, filters, custom covers, and better recommendations, Spotify continues to refine its tools for building and sharing playlists.
Summary
Spotify’s playlist importer removes one of the biggest hurdles to adopting or returning to the platform. Combined with new playlist editing and personalisation features, this update gives listeners both convenience and more expressive control over how they organise and enjoy their music.
