How to add YouTube songs to Spotify mobile

Here are the simple methods you need to follow to quickly and easily import all of your playlists and favourites from YouTube Music into Spotify on your mobile device.

Method 1: Download playlist with your local files

  • Step 1: Fire up the Spotify app.

Get the Spotify app going and sign in.

  • Step 2:  Select “Edit” and then “Preferences.”

Either Edit or the three dots in the top right will take you to the Preferences menu. To do this action immediately, press Control and P simultaneously.

  • Step 3: Choose “Local Files”

To find the “Local Files” area, you’ll need to scroll down in the resulting settings menu. The next step is to save the music you’ve selected to your device.

  • Step 4: Select “Add a Source”

Then, towards the bottom of the window, pick the directory where your music is kept by clicking the “Add a Source” button.

By selecting Local Files from the menu on the left side of the screen, you will have access to the music that is saved there. When you are finished selecting files, click the okay button.

After that, you’ll be able to listen to your music in the area devoted to local files. You are now able to add it to a playlist on your device.

  • Step 5: Navigate to the Playlists section.

When it appears in your local files, you can add it to a playlist by selecting the three dots. To create a playlist, navigate to the Library’s Playlists section.

After including something in a playlist, you’re good to go. You need to do one more step to get it to work with your mobile device.

  • Step 6: Activate Windows Defender

Windows Defender Firewall may be found by entering its name into the search box on your mobile device, which is where you’ll need to go in order to begin the synchronisation process.

If you want to enable or disable Windows Defender’s firewall, you can do it from the left side of the new window that opens. You double-check to make sure that Options 2 and 4 are both disabled.

This is merely a function of the devices’ ability to communicate with one another in a loud sounds and sync up with one another. Check the boxes and hit the “OK” button. Hopefully, they’re showing up red now.

After this is complete, assuming the tunes were successfully located, your playlists will be accessible on Spotify.


  • Step 7: Visit your Spotify mobile account

Go to your Spotify app after you’ve double-checked the aforementioned choices. Enter your credentials and navigate to your playlist.

If you have Premium, a green slider will appear at the top of the page, and if you don’t, “Download” will appear in the upper left corner, directly above your music list.

It’s important to remember that after the download, both the platforms on the network must be using the same Wi-Fi. Spotify won’t let you save a playlist if you’re connected to more than one network at once.

Check your internet connection and then click the tiny slider next to the word “Download” to begin downloading the music.

You can now listen to the song on Spotify after importing it from YouTube Music. If you wish to add more music, just repeat these instructions.

Note: Keep in mind that your device’s security relies on the Windows Defender Firewall, which you must re-enable. To restore the green colour, please turn on the aforementioned features by clicking their respective toggle switches.
