How to transfer playlists from Deezer to Apple Music
Four steps. The same on iPhone, Android, Mac, Windows and Linux.
Quick answer
To transfer Deezer to Apple Music, install FreeYourMusic, select Deezer as the source and Apple Music as the destination, choose the playlists you want, and start the transfer. The app finds each song on Apple Music and lists any track it could not match.
- 1
Connect Deezer as the source
Open FreeYourMusic, tap the Deezer tile on the "Select source" screen and sign in on the Deezer sign-in page. FreeYourMusic does not store your Deezer password.
- 2
Choose Apple Music as the destination
On the "Select destination" screen, tap Apple Music and sign in. FreeYourMusic needs access to your Apple Music library to create the playlists there.
- 3
Select what to move
Tick the playlists you want on Apple Music. Use the filters and the search field to find them, or select everything to move your whole Deezer library at once.
- 4
Start the transfer and check the results
Tap "Begin transfer". FreeYourMusic matches every song on Apple Music, keeps the playlist names and the song order, and shows a confidence score for each match. Use Rematch to fix any song it could not find.
Good to know before you move Deezer to Apple Music
Deezer as the source
Playlists, saved albums and followed artists can move from Deezer.
Read the Deezer guide →Apple Music as the destination
Apple Music needs an active subscription to add music. Apple does not let apps remove or reorder songs in a playlist, so sync only adds new songs there.
Read the Apple Music guide →Apple Music has a built-in import. Here is how FreeYourMusic is different.
Apple Music can import playlists from Deezer in Settings → Apps → Music → Transfer Music from Other Music Services, or at music.apple.com. It is a one-time import into Apple Music, and Apple does not offer it in every country.
| Built-in Apple Music import | FreeYourMusic | |
|---|---|---|
| Where your music can go | Apple Music only | Apple Music and 15 other services |
| Move between two Apple Music accounts | No | Yes |
| Keep playlists in sync after the move | No, one-time import | Yes, with Auto-Sync (Premium) |
| Back up your library | No | Yes, with Cloud Backup (Premium) |
| Move away from Apple Music later | No | Yes, in any direction |
For a quick one-time move, the built-in import can be enough. Use FreeYourMusic to keep services in sync, move between accounts, back up your library, or leave Apple Music later.
What transfers from Deezer to Apple Music
On every device
Move, convert or import: one transfer from Deezer to Apple Music
Whatever you call it, it is the same job. You can move your Deezer playlists to Apple Music, convert a Deezer playlist into a Apple Music playlist, or import your Deezer library into Apple Music. FreeYourMusic does all three in one transfer, for one playlist or for a library of thousands of songs.

Moving from Deezer to Apple Music, explained
Moving from Deezer to Apple Music keeps you in lossless territory while adding Spatial Audio and deep integration with your Apple devices. FreeYourMusic reads your Deezer library through Deezer’s official sign-in and recreates it inside Apple Music — playlists and saved albums.
This guide explains what transfers, what cannot, how songs are matched, how long it takes, and how the two services really differ. If you just want to begin, install FreeYourMusic, connect both accounts and pick what to move — the detail is below.
What transfers to Apple Music, and what does not
Your playlists move with names and order preserved, and saved albums come across. Favourites and followed artists do not carry over. Move everything or choose playlists individually, with counts shown before you commit.
A couple of things stay behind. Deezer’s Flow is unique to Deezer, and any MP3s you uploaded to Deezer are your own files, not catalogue tracks, so they cannot be matched. Podcasts live in a separate Apple app and do not cross over.
How FreeYourMusic matches your tracks
Each Deezer track is matched to the same recording in Apple Music, preferring the ISRC code assigned to every recording and falling back to title, artist, album and duration otherwise. Both catalogues are large, so match rates are usually high.
The occasional regional exclusive or unusual edition may lack a perfect counterpart. FreeYourMusic never silently drops a track — anything uncertain is flagged for one-tap Rematch, so you stay in control of every substitution.
How long does a Deezer to Apple Music transfer take?
Most transfers finish in minutes. With both accounts connected, around 1,000 tracks usually completes in under ten minutes. Larger libraries take longer, but the transfer runs on its own — start it and step away.
FreeYourMusic runs natively on iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac, Windows and Linux, so the move is not tied to one device. Start it on your laptop and check progress on your phone; it is the same account and the same transfer.
Deezer vs Apple Music: what actually changes
Both offer lossless — Deezer with HiFi in FLAC, Apple Music with hi-res lossless plus Spatial Audio with Dolby Atmos — so the audio gap is small. Deezer’s signature is Flow and strong regional coverage; Apple Music’s is device integration and Replay.
What you give up is Flow and Deezer’s platform-agnostic flexibility; what you gain is Siri, HomePod and seamless handoff across Apple devices, plus Spatial Audio. If you live in the Apple world, Apple Music is the natural home.
Do you need to keep Deezer while you transfer?
Yes — keep Deezer active until the transfer is finished and checked. FreeYourMusic reads your Deezer library while copying it into Apple Music, and keeping both live means you never lose access mid-move.
Deezer has a free tier, but Apple Music has no permanent free tier, so you will need an Apple Music trial or subscription to receive the transfer. Both connect through their own official sign-in, and your password is never shared with FreeYourMusic.
Tips for a clean migration
Tidy your Deezer playlists first so you carry only what you actually play. Transfer a couple of playlists and check them in Apple Music before moving the rest — it is the quickest way to trust the match quality. Note any uploaded MP3s that will not follow.
When the transfer finishes, resolve any flagged tracks in the Rematch list, then turn on lossless and Spatial Audio in Apple Music’s settings and download your key playlists for offline listening.
Keeping Deezer and Apple Music in sync afterwards
A one-time move is not your only option. If you keep Deezer and Apple Music side by side, FreeYourMusic’s Auto-Sync mirrors the two libraries on a schedule so a playlist addition on one turns up on the other.
And the transfer runs the other way too, from Apple Music back to Deezer, if you change your mind. Your library stays portable. Download FreeYourMusic, connect Deezer and Apple Music, and see how much comes across — the free tier lets you try first.
