Two things people mean by "Spotify to YouTube"

Some people want to hear a Spotify playlist on YouTube right now. Others want a permanent copy saved in their YouTube account. Transfer services such as TuneMyMusic and Soundiiz do the second job well, but they need you to sign in to both services and wait while the copy runs.

PlaylistSearchr does the first job instantly and gets you most of the way on the second.

How to copy a Spotify link

  • On a phone: open the playlist, tap the three dots, then Share, then Copy link.
  • On a computer: right-click the playlist in the sidebar, choose Share, then Copy link to playlist.
  • From a message: links that start with spotify.link work too. We follow them to the real playlist.

How the songs get matched

We read each song title and artist from Spotify's public page and search YouTube for an upload of that exact track. Audio uploads are preferred over music videos, for two reasons: music videos often start with a long intro, and many of them are blocked from playing outside youtube.com. If the first match won't play, the player quietly tries the next one.

If it says the playlist is empty

The playlist is probably private. Spotify only shows public playlists to anyone outside your account. In the Spotify app, open the playlist, tap the three dots and choose Add to profile, then paste the link again.

Questions people ask

Does this copy my Spotify playlist into my YouTube account?

Not on its own, because we never ask you to log in. The player plays the playlist straight away. If you want a copy on YouTube, press "open it on YouTube" and YouTube opens the first 50 matched songs as one list, which you can save from there.

Do I need Spotify Premium or a YouTube account?

Neither. Spotify's public page gives us the song names, and YouTube's embedded player plays them. You don't sign in to either.

Does it work with a playlist someone else made?

Yes, as long as it's public. That includes Spotify's own playlists like Today's Top Hits, and any playlist a friend shares with you.

What happens with very long playlists?

We play every song Spotify lists on its public page. For very long playlists that page can be shorter than the full list, so the last songs may not appear.

Can I listen on my phone?

Yes, in Safari or Chrome. Keep the screen on, because phones pause embedded YouTube videos when you lock them. SkipVids can keep playing in the background.
