Moving from Apple Music to Deezer, explained

Deezer pairs a genuinely global catalogue with strong regional coverage, its Flow personalised mix, lossless HiFi in FLAC and dependable synced lyrics. Moving from Apple Music keeps your collection while giving you those extras. FreeYourMusic reads your Apple Music library through Apple’s official sign-in and rebuilds your playlists, liked songs and saved albums inside Deezer.

This guide runs through what transfers, what cannot, how songs are matched, how long it takes, and how the two services really differ. If you just want to start, install FreeYourMusic, connect both accounts and pick what to move — the detail is below.

What transfers to Deezer, and what does not

Your playlists move with names and order preserved, liked songs arrive as favourites and saved albums come across. Followed artists do not carry over. Move everything or choose playlists individually, with counts shown before you commit.

Some things cannot follow. Apple’s editorial mixes and Replay are unique to Apple Music; Deezer’s own Flow is a separate feature you build up over time on the other side. Podcasts stay in Apple’s separate app, and local iTunes files have no streaming equivalent to match into Deezer.

How FreeYourMusic matches your tracks

Each Apple Music song is matched to the same recording in Deezer, preferring the ISRC code assigned to every recording and falling back to title, artist, album and duration otherwise. Deezer’s catalogue is large and broadly comparable, so match rates tend to be high.

No two catalogues are identical, so 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 with suggestions, so you keep control over every substitution.

How long does an Apple Music to Deezer 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 get on with your day.

FreeYourMusic runs natively on iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac, Windows and Linux, so the move is not tied to one machine. Start it on your Mac and follow progress on your phone; it is the same account and the same transfer.

Apple Music vs Deezer: what actually changes

Both offer lossless — Apple Music with hi-res and Spatial Audio, Deezer with HiFi in FLAC — so the audio gap is small. Deezer’s signature is Flow, an endless personalised mix, along with strong regional coverage in many markets and reliable synced lyrics.

What shifts is the ecosystem. Apple Music is woven into Siri, HomePod and the Apple world, with Replay each year. Deezer is platform-agnostic and leans on Flow for discovery. If you want comparable breadth and audio without being tied to Apple hardware, Deezer is an easy landing spot.

Do you need to keep Apple Music while you transfer?

Yes — keep Apple Music active until the transfer is finished and checked. FreeYourMusic reads your Apple Music library while copying it into Deezer, and keeping both live means you never lose access mid-move. Cancel Apple Music only once you are satisfied.

Deezer has a free tier, so you can receive a transfer without paying, while its HiFi tier unlocks lossless FLAC. Both services connect through their own official sign-in, and your password is never shared with FreeYourMusic.

Tips for a clean migration

Tidy your Apple Music playlists first so you carry only what you actually play. Because the catalogues are broadly similar, match quality is usually strong, but transferring a couple of playlists first and checking them in Deezer still builds confidence quickly.

When the transfer finishes, resolve any flagged tracks in the Rematch list, then let Flow learn your taste by playing it for a while. Turn on HiFi in settings for lossless, and download your key playlists for offline listening.

Keeping Apple Music and Deezer in sync afterwards

A one-time move is not your only option. If you are trialling Deezer while keeping Apple Music, FreeYourMusic’s Auto-Sync mirrors the two libraries on a schedule so a song you like on one appears on the other without effort.

And the transfer runs the other way too, from Deezer back to Apple Music, if you change your mind. Your library stays portable. Download FreeYourMusic, connect Apple Music and Deezer, and see how much comes across — the free tier lets you try before you upgrade.
