"It's been almost two years since I switched from Spotify Premium to an Apple Music subscription. At the time, I was seeking Apple's lossless audio for wired listening, its Dolby Atmos catalog, and I'll admit: I'm a sucker for Apple's user interface. Two years ago, replicating eight years' worth of saved music from the Spotify catalog to Apple Music was an incredibly daunting and even more time-consuming task."
"After scouring Reddit for the best solution, I came across SongShift, an app made specifically for transferring your music library from one streaming service to another. On SongShift's free tier, I was limited to playlists with under 200 songs, and full library transfers required a paid subscription. With iOS 26, Apple introduced an official partnership with SongShift, integrating its technology into the Apple Music app, a partnership that's been in testing for over a year. Now, users can import their entire Spotify, Deezer, Tidal, Amazon Music, or YouTube Music catalog to Apple Music from their iOS device's settings."
Apple Music includes a built-in library import feature powered by SongShift that enables subscribers to transfer complete catalogs from competing services. The integration supports Spotify, Deezer, Tidal, Amazon Music, and YouTube Music and was introduced with iOS 26 after over a year of testing. Transfers can be started from iPhone or iPad settings, and the feature is also available on Android with the latest Apple Music app and via Apple Music on the web. Users must provide login credentials for the previous streaming service and maintain an active Apple Music subscription to use the free transfer tool. Third-party transfer apps previously limited free transfers or required paid subscriptions for full-library moves.
