[Playlists] Merge / Add a Playlist to another Playlist

It would be great to combine playlists together. With the option to avoid multiples of the same track(s) along with a prompt to confirm the addition of one playlist to another. 

Updated on 2023-05-04

Hey folks,

 

Thanks for coming to the Spotify Idea Exchange and voting to make this happen.

 

We're happy to announce that this feature is now available on Android, iOS and Desktop.

 

You just need to select the playlist, then choose the option  "Add to other playlist" > and add it to the desired playlist.

 

Once again, thanks for helping us make Spotify better, by participating here on the Community.

Yes, WillemThe Wheel, it is indeed a mystery.  Makes you wonder if Spotify folks even pay attention to what is written here.  One of the greatest functions of Spotify is the Playlists, but there is no function dedicated to working with the playlists we create, only the music within them.  It's like having a computer operating system that allows you to move and manipulate files but not the folders that contain the files.  How long do you think that operating system would survive?  Spotify has been ignoring this for way to many years and companies that do that go out of business.  Bizarre.

Please consider allowing for the merging of playlists on android. Some of us do not have access to a pc!  It is an unfortunate shortcoming that makes Spotify less pleasant to use.  I am also finding that Spotify does not operate well when I am using Chrome on android.  It cuts out frequently (like just now). I have followed the advice given previously and it made no difference.  I pay full price for a Premium subscription and expect it should work well across all platforms.  Thanks for your consideration.

 Desperately need to combine playlists into one to have multiple playlists converted into one. So that songs would play from each playlists together combined but still keeping the playlists separate as individuals almost like you do on Pandora with the stations

This would be great when you can temporarily create a playlist for example on a party or in wich mood your are.

It seems like adding a "merge playlist with another" option would be simple and really convenient for users. Please consider!

This would be great.  I often would like to make a playlist from other playlists, while on the go. Based on the traffic here, I don't like our chances though. 😞

I wrote a Spotify app that will let you choose 2 or more of your playlists then merge them into a new playlist with the tracks mixed up randomly, duplicates ignored. Great for combining playlists for a party for example. Please try it out: https://playlist.management

Being able to merge playlists is a no brainer. It seems that making playlists a communal thing is more important than being able to manage them.

 

A 6th grader should be able to have that programmed by the end of the weekend!

Are you saying the Spotifyengineers must not have 6th grade educations
since they haven’t fixed the issue in years?

Thanks, MCCarths. Nice App. Works great.
