TL;DR Spotify has officially launched playlist-import support via TuneMyMusic, allowing mobile users to transfer large libraries directly from other streaming services.
Premium users will also soon see new features, including ‘SongDNA’ and ‘About the song’, offering deeper insights into track creators and musical connections.
Thanks to the ever-increasing prices of music streaming services and the occasional introduction of new features, many people are interested in switching between services like Spotify, YouTube Music, and Apple Music. Users have had to resort to third-party tools to migrate between services, but lately, these platforms have made it easier for users to hop on and bring their playlists along. The latest addition to the pack is Spotify, which now allows users to transfer their playlists from other popular music apps easily.

Mobile users will soon see a new “Import your music” section at the bottom of the “Your Library” tab. Tap on this option and follow the prompts to connect your source music service to TuneMyMusic. You will then be able to select the playlists that you’d like to import to Spotify.
