If you are thinking of switching to SpotifyBut you’re too lazy to lose all your playlistsyou’re lucky. The platform in question has finally added an official method to import playlists from other services, without strange apps or complicated tutorials.

- Do it all from the Spotify app itselfwithout leaving them (although an internal browser is open to work).
This is worth clarifying the functionality will be implemented progressively. If it still doesn’t show up, it shouldn’t take long. Likewise, it is essential to update the Spotify app to the latest version.
