How to Transfer Playlists from Spotify to YouTube Music

I recently moved my music from Spotify to YouTube Music. I think that YouTube Premium offers more bang for the buck. You get ad-free YouTube plus every song and every remix in the world on YouTube Music for just two more dollars when compared to other streaming giants.

Trying new music streaming services is easy, transferring playlists from one to another, easier! I know what you are thinking — how did I manage to transfer all my playlists and other music preferences from Spotify to YouTube Music?

If you came here looking for a solution, I am sharing some services and apps that will let you transfer playlists from Spotify to YouTube Music within minutes.

Let’s begin.

1. Playlist Buddy App

Playlist Buddy is a free, ad-supported web service. These are no popup ads though. You will just notice banners at the time of transferring your playlist from Spotify to YouTube Music. The whole site was built to do only one thing. No other music streaming site is supported at the moment! Visit the website and sign in to your Spotify.

Once the process is complete, you will see your Spotify playlist on YouTube Music.

Free and easy to use with a UI that is too bland.

2. SongShift

Songshift offers an iOS app but no web or Android versions. That makes it a little limited when it comes to platforms, but the app is really good. When you launch the app for the first time, you will be asked to Connect Your Music. Tap on it to sign in to Spotify.

3. TuneMyMusic

TuneMyMusic supports many music streaming services and has a dedicated page for each combination. Well, that is a time saver. It is a web app and doesn’t offer any dedicated apps for mobile platforms at the moment. Thankfully, it is completely free to use. Click on the link below to open the required selection and select Let’s Start.

Soundiiz probably supports the maximum number of music streaming services and that’s why it is my favorite. Again, there are no mobile apps available. Just the web version which works well.

Click on Start now button to begin the process which you should be familiar with by now. You need to create an account or sign in using a social media profile like Google.

The transfer will take a few moments after which you can view and listen to it on YouTube Music.

Useful if you and your spouse use different apps but listen to the same playlist.
