Spotify move songs from one playlist to another
Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority If youre an avid Spotify user who listens to a lot of music, theres a very good chance you use playlists to organize your favorite songs. As such, you may be wondering about how to combine playlists on Spotify. QUICK ANSWER In the iOS or Android Spotify app, you must move songs one-by-one from one playlist to another. On the desktop app, you can select all songs in one playlistCtrl+A on Windows and Command+A on Macthen right-click. One of the options will be Add to playlist, from which you will select the playlist you want to add these songs to. In Spotify, there is no button to simply select one playlist and combine it with another. However, you can select all the songs from two separate playlists and create an entirely new one. This is difficult to do on the Spotify mobile app for iOS and Android or through the Spotify web app, so we are going to recommend you start by opening up Spotify on your desktop. How to combine Spotify playlists on the desktop app (recommended method)1. Open the Spotify desktop application The first thing you are going to want to do when combining Spotify playlists is to download the Spotify app for desktop. The easiest way to do this is to head over to the Spotify download page in your browser. After the download has finished, open the Spotify desktop app. 2. Locate both playlists you want to combine Curtis Joe / Android Authority In the desktop app, find the two playlists that you would like to combine. For the sake of this exercise, I will be combining The Going Quantum Playlist and CuJos Current Picks. The songs from both of these playlists will be going into a new combined playlist called New Playlist (AA). Playlists are located on the leftmost side of the desktop app, underneath Home, Search, and Your Library. 3. Select all songs from one playlist Curtis Joe / Android Authority Using the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+A on Windows or Command+A on Mac, select all songs from the first playlist. From here on out, you will have two options:
For the sake of this how-to guide, we will be demonstrating option 1. 4. Add those selected songs to a new playlist Curtis Joe / Android Authority After you have selected all the songs from the first playlistin this case, The Going Quantum Playlistright-click on the highlighted songs. There will be an option at the top that says Add to new playlist. Select this, as it will create a new playlist where you can store all of the songs from both playlists. For the sake of todays exercise, our new playlist will be called New Playlist (AA). 5. Add the songs from the second playlist to the new playlist Curtis Joe / Android Authority The final step is to go to your second playlist, select all of the songs from it (using Ctrl+A or Command+A), and then add them to your new playlist. The final product will be an entirely new playlist that features all of the songs from both playlists. In this case, New playlist (AA) is a brand new playlist that combines both The Going Quantum Playlist and CuJos Current Picks. Alternatively, as mentioned before, you could simply add all of the songs from one playlist to the other. For example, at Step 4, we could have simply added all of the songs from The Going Quantum Playlist directly into CuJos Current Picks.
