My Question or Issue

How do I share on social networks like Facebook and Twitter my own Local Files? Also, how do I add to my playlists my own Local Files all together all at once, not individually?

Hey there @anvipanoie093o,

thanks for posting in the community !

As local files are located on your individual device and aren't checked and got not be checked for their legality, Spotify will not have them shared across social networks or any other platforms.

If you wish to read more about the "Local Files" feature you can always check this article which contains some FAQ's as well as official info.

Hope this answers your question.

Let me know if you need further help 😃

Hey there @anvipanoie093o,

thanks for the reply.

When using a PC and the desktop app you can use keyboard short cuts like Ctrl+A to choose all the songs in a particualr playlist or a local files folder and then Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V to paste them wherever you wish to.

Same goes for all playlists and other features of the Spotify app.

All keyboard shortcuts we use are available on the desktop app as well.

Hope this help.

Let me know if you need anything else 😃

With my local files open, I keystroked Ctrl+A, but then no files had become highlighted as selected. How do I select all of my local files all at once?
