Apple Music Playlists Can Now Be Transferred to YouTube Music: See Transfer Process Supported Playlists

Apple Music has just offered a lifeboat to playlist refugees! Tired of being musically marooned? Auto-disasters that otherwise would have been avoided won’t certainly be seen on YouTube Music when users can allow for the painstaking transfer of their curated playlists out of Apple’s walled garden. While Apple discreetly mentions transferring them to “another service,” YouTube Music is actually theonlyescape route available now. There’s a catch: only playlists you have either created yourself or collaborated on with others can be moved. The sad part is that your entire music library and folder structure remain trapped behind these digital walls.

Apple Music Playlists Can Be Transferred to YouTube Music

Apple Music users rejoice! Tired of being chained to one music platform? Apple has very recently dropped an amazing cherry on top-the ever elusive playlist portability. Another support page, just unearthed, holds the key to unlocking your tightly guarded Apple Music playlists. The other sonic masterpieces can be directly shipped from the “Data and Privacy” page to YouTube Music. Your vibes are really no longer trapped-unleash them!

Cross-platform playlisting? Here are a few bits of information: Active Apple Music or iTunes Match subscriptions must be set up, and a YouTube Music account must be available to receive tunes. The transfer, though, takes a matter of minutes. However, and this is a big “however,” Apple’s own documentation speaks of playlists migrating over hours when dealing with an enormous quantity of playlists or large libraries. So, go ahead; get yourself a coffee, maybe binge-watch an episode or two; your music will eventually make it over.

With Apple Music, you cansomeof the playlists, mainly the playlists you created yourself, within which you and a few friends curate jams together. But hold on; don’t get your hopes up: the shared playlists you don’t own, the cool mixes provided by Apple, or the individual song files won’t be moving with you. And those well-organized playlist folders? Also staying behind. It would be like taking your prized plants but leaving the garden bed behind, after all.

Transfer of your song migration is nearing completion, heads-up! Here is a small reminder that only the tracks available on YouTube Music will be transferred. Exclusive content, podcasts, and audiobooks are left behind. The good news? Your Apple Music library is unaffected; no playlist dies in the conversion!
