If you've decided to give Amazon Music a try , you'll be happy to know that transferring your playlists from your current service to the new one is incredibly easy. So easy, in fact, that if that was holding you back, you'll now have no more excuses not to switch.
Not without my playlists
It must be acknowledged that playlists have become essential for many users and for all current music streaming services. Whether you create them manually, automatically select them, or find them online, they're all great ways to enjoy your favorite music or discover new tracks.
Well, one of the reasons why some users certainly haven't just made the leap from one streaming music service to another is because of the charts themselves. And not because it's not possible to use them in the new one, but because they don't know how I could import them to the new platform so that the change is as smooth as possible since having to remake them manually is a tedious process.
The truth is that this ceased to be a real problem a long time ago, although currently there are those who do not know what alternatives they have to export old playlists and then re-import them this time on the new platform.
If by some chance you are one of them, don't worry because there is a solution and it is very easy to use. Basically you will have to run an application capable of reading data from one service and taking it to another. In our case, we will do it with two applications called SongShift and TuneMyMusic that allow, among many other things, to import playlists from different music services to Amazon, regardless of whether you have the free payment plan or not.
How to import playlists from a music service to Amazon Music
As we have already told you, importing all your playlists or those that you decide on to a new streaming music platform is as simple as opening a small application or utility, then selecting the source and destination service so that in a matter of minutes you already have all your music on the new platform.
Nevertheless, let's see step by step how to import playlists into Amazon Music . This way, you can enjoy all the music you love on the company's smart speakers:
- The obvious first step is download SongShift or TuneMyMusic. The difference between the two is that the first is an app for iOS devices and the second is a web app. The truth is that we recommend TuneMyMusic, even if you have an iPhone
- Once you have it, start the process by selecting the source service of the playlists or playlists that you want to take from one to another
- Now you only have to follow the respective instructions to be able to select the lists that you want to export and then import into the new service
- Once the process is finished, you will find the lists within the Amazon Music platform in the Playlists section
Done, now you can continue enjoying your favorite music and all those compilations that you have been making yourself during all this time or adding after seeing them shared by other users or through the recommendation system of each platform.
Amazon Music? Why not Spotify or others?
On Amazon Echo devices and other Alexa-compatible devices, Amazon Music isn't the only option for listening to music . Unlike Apple and its HomePod, the company's smart speaker allows you to use and configure other services.
For example, you can use Spotify and all you have to do is the following:
- Open the Alexa app
- Then enter the configuration section and then go to the Music section
- When you touch the screen to access it, you will see that different services appear that may vary depending on the area where you are living, although generally the most important ones will be there (Spotify, Apple Music, TuneIn and deezer).
- You just have to select the one you want to use by default every time you ask Alexa for music and log in to enjoy the advantages that, for example, the paid version of Spotify offers
However, you may be more interested in the Amazon option for reasons as varied as some promotions they carry out to be able to access the Unlimited catalog for three months for 1 euros or similar.
Furthermore, one of the advantages of Amazon Music Unlimited is its option to listen to lossless HD music , ideal for audiophiles. So being able to bring your playlists here is even more important, because enjoying your favorite music in the highest quality is always appealing.
And if you want, you can maintain several services, only when you ask for music without specifying which service you want to play it on, it will pull the one you have by default or Amazon Music if it doesn't exist.
Playlists between platforms
Everything that we have told you above to take the playlists from Spotify, Apple Music or other services to Amazon Music is also valid on the contrary. That is, to take the ones you have on the Amazon platform to other services or between different services that have nothing to do with Amazon.
In addition, this is also interesting if a friend, family member or acquaintance has a playlist that you like. Instead of asking for the full song list, you can ask for the playlist and convert it to take it to your used service. And also on the contrary, you provide them with a list compatible with their platform in a matter of minutes.
So nothing, enjoy the music on the service and device of your choice. Although if you have Prime you are interested, as well as if you are tired of paying for other services that no longer convince you equally.
