Free Your Music moves your playlists, your liked songs, the playlists you follow, and your saved albums and artists, all free. It does not move podcasts, audio files or playlists that belong to the music service itself.
What moves
Playlists
Every playlist you made moves, on every supported service. When you choose what to move, the "Made by you" filter shows them.
Liked songs
Your liked or favourite songs move where the source lets apps read them and the destination lets apps add them. When you choose what to move, they are "Liked songs" under "Your collections".
Playlists you follow
Playlists made by other people that you follow or saved are listed under "Followed playlists". Free Your Music copies them into playlists you own on the destination, along with your own playlists.
Albums and artists
Your saved albums and followed artists move free, where both services support them.
What never moves
- Podcasts. No music service lets apps transfer them.
- Playlists owned by the service, such as the editorial playlists made by Spotify. They cannot be transferred.
- Top songs lists that a service makes for you. These cannot be transferred.
- Audio files. Free Your Music moves the information about your music, not the music itself. The new service plays the songs from its own catalogue.
- Play counts and listening history. Your new service starts its own.
Want to keep a service-made playlist? Add its songs to a playlist of your own on the old service, then move that playlist.
What each service supports
Playlists work on every service. Liked songs, albums and artists depend on the service. "Liked songs (read)" means the service can be the source, and "Liked songs (write)" means it can be the destination. A transfer works only when the source can read and the destination can write.

"Not confirmed" means we have not checked that part for the service, so do not count on it. The service guides explain the details for each service.

Yes, where the source lets apps read liked songs and the destination lets apps add them. Check the table above for your two services.
Can I transfer albums and followed artists?
Yes, free, where both services support albums and artists.
Can I transfer podcasts?
No. Music services do not let apps transfer podcasts, so Free Your Music cannot move them.
