The world of music streaming services is expanding every day as more and more people are adapting to the ‘always online’ era. Gone are the days of buying physical copies of albums, as there are plenty of music streaming services out there giving you access to millions of tracks for a small fee each month.
Now, services such as Spotify, Saavn, Youtube Music are among the most popular music streaming services available for the Android users, but Apple Music is the best choice for those who are used to the Apple ecosystem. Though Apple Music is also available for Android devices.
Apple Music offers over 50 million music tracks that users can access, and while that isn’t any different compared to Spotify, Amazon Music or other services, you definitely won’t be missing out on any of your favorite tunes. Apple also gives you the option to listen to any songs that you’ve purchased via iTunes.
Suppose you want to try out Apple Music on your iOS/Android device, but you don’t want to waste time to add all of your curated playlists, favorite albums and tracks from Spotify all over again.
Luckily, you won’t have to painstakingly remake and or re-find all of the playlists, songs, artists, and albums, as we have compiled a step-by-step guide on how to transfer your Spotify playlists to Apple Music. Just follow these steps mentioned below.
How to Transfer your Spotify Playlists to Apple Music

Alternatives
If you are having problems with Songshift or Soundiiz, we have two more alternatives for you to transfer your Spotify playlists to Apple Music.
Transfer your Spotify Playlists using STAMP
Stamp is available on iOS, Android, Windows, macOS, and even the Linux platform. So it is possible to use it wherever you want.
