Transferring Tesla free account playlist to Spotify premium

Transferring Tesla free account playlist to Spotify premium

Tesla have just announced they are discontinuing the Spotify account included with the car.  So I am going to sign up for a premium Spotify account in my own name.  Currently the car has its own Tesla sub account which cannot be opened from anywhere but the car.   Is there any way to transfer this car playlist to a separate Spotify premium account on a phone or laptop so I can then share it back to the car's new premium account when I sign up for it?   I am  in New Zealand, but this appears to be a global issue

Hey @Waimarie,


Thanks for coming to the Community.

 

If you haven’t already, you should have received a prompt within the Spotify app in your Tesla to add an email in order to keep the vehicle Spotify account.

 

If you don’t see this prompt, make sure your Tesla is updated to software version 2024.32.4 or higher.

 

Here’s an alternative way to keep the vehicle account:

  1. Open the Spotify app from the bottom bar of your vehicle’s screen.
  2. Tap on the Account tab.
  3. Update your vehicle’s account information.

If you keep this account, it will transition to Spotify’s free service in December, but your liked songs and followed playlists will stay intact. This means you’ll also be able to access your music from other devices—just reset the password to log in with the email address you added. Plus, you can re-subscribe to Premium whenever you’re ready.

 

If you already have a Premium account, you could also consider upgrading to Premium Family to share Spotify Premium with family members. You can then add the Tesla account as a member of the Family plan. This way, you can keep the car’s music and profile separate from your own while still enjoying all the Premium benefits.

 

Let me know how it goes! 🙂
