This unreleased Apple Music feature might help you ditch Spotify for good


Apple Music is full of good features following the iOS 17 update, but soon, the music service might help you transfer your Spotify library at no cost and with ease. According to the findings of a Reddit user, the beta version of Apple Music on Android has now a “Transfer Music from Other Services” feature.

Apparently, Apple is testing this major change in partnership with SongShift, one of the best music library transfer apps. In addition, MacRumors found references to this change in the APK of the app, although it doesn’t seem to be available to all beta testers at this moment.

If the testing goes well, this would be a major advantage for Apple Music. Spotify, Deezer, Tidal, and YouTube Music users could easily transfer all their songs, albums, and playlists to Apple Music for free with minimal effort.

Currently, years’ worth of curated playlists and albums often keep users from ditching a streaming service, in addition to the algorithm tailored to their taste. Also, third-party music transfer services aren’t flawless. While most of them limit the number of songs you can transfer in a free version, they’re also known to make mistakes.

One of the services I enjoy the most, FreeYourMusic, has issues when transferring Beatles songs from Apple Music to Spotify. Also, for whatever reason, it always converts these songs to band covers, which I find very odd.
