FAQ

Q: How do I sort the Liked Songs playlist?

A: The same way you'd sort any other playlist that you own. The only difference is that there is no custom sorting for Liked Songs, only pre-defined ones.

Q: What about Made for You playlists (Discover Weekly, Release Radar, Daily Mix)?

A: It’s currently not possible to reorder songs in Made for You playlists, since these are updated on a regular basis according to your listening preferences.

Tip: A workaround for this is to copy the songs from one of the above playlists to a new playlist created by you, but you’ll have to do this on the desktop version of the app.
