Hello everyone,
I love the Smart Shuffle option, so much that I want it with those playlists that naturally don't have it, those playlists that only seem to have plain shuffle.

Is there a way to do so?
Thank you for your help!
Regards

Hi @tardegard

Thanks for posting in the Spotify Community, and Welcome!

I understand you'd like to use Smart Shuffle on playlists where it currently isn't available. While this isn’t directly possible, there is a handy workaround you can try:

Open the playlist that doesn’t support Smart Shuffle
Click the dots at the top near the description.
Use the “Add to other playlist” option to move them into a new playlist
Once you’ve created the new playlist, Smart Shuffle should be available there

This lets you enjoy the Smart Shuffle experience with the tracks you love.

Let me know if you have any questions or need a hand with any of the steps. Happy listening! 🎶
