How to move your library and playlists from Spotify to Apple Music

There are plenty of reasons you might want to use Apple Music as your subscription service of I choice over Spotify. Perhaps recent controversies have you rethinking where you want to send your money, or maybe you're an Apple One subscriber (fave.co/3EFtF9p) and don't want to pay for two music services. Perhaps the integration with Apple's operating systems and services suits your life better. Or maybe you want your favorite artists to get paid more per stream, as Apple claims it does.

Whatever your reason, switching from Spotify to Apple Music is simple-just subscribe, log in, and stream away. Moving your content from Spotify to Apple Music is much more difficult! There's no straightforward way to copy your playlists, saved music, likes and dislikes, or other data from Spotify Fortunately, there are services that can log into both your Spotify and Apple Music accounts and more or less get you up to speed. If you want to transfer music from Spotify to Apple Music, here are some services to consider.

FREE YOUR MUSIC

FreeYourMusic (fave.co/3Kyvqs 7) is a robust service that lets you transfer your saved music and playlists from one service to another (including Spotify and Apple Music), but it's not cheap. The free version is limited to 100 tracks and one playlist. If you want to transfer everything, you'll have to pony up $14.99 for the basic version.
