You can now transfer your playlists from Apple Music to YouTube Music and back | Infinium-tech

You can now transfer playlists between Apple Music and YouTube Music in an official way. Apple has published two help documents (linked as sources below) that explain what you need to do to switch from one service to the other.

Before you ask – no, there is no official way to go from Apple Music to Spotify or Spotify to Apple Music. For now, it’s only an option to go from Apple Music to YouTube Music or YouTube Music to Apple Music.

Keep in mind that only playlists you create (including collaborative playlists you own) are transferred. Music files, non-collaborative shared playlists and curated playlists, and the folders in which you organize your Apple Music playlists are not transferred.

If the Apple Music playlist you want to transfer contains podcasts, audiobooks, or user-uploaded audio files, they won’t play and only the songs in the playlist will play. If the service you’re transferring to doesn’t have a specific song, obviously they won’t transfer.

The whole process, regardless of direction, usually takes a few minutes, but can take several hours depending on the number of playlists you are transferring. Full instructions on how to transfer can be found at the link below.
