How to transfer playlists from Amazon Music to YouTube
Four steps. The same on iPhone, Android, Mac, Windows and Linux.
Quick answer
To transfer Amazon Music to YouTube, install FreeYourMusic, select Amazon Music as the source and YouTube as the destination, choose the playlists you want, and start the transfer. The app finds each song on YouTube and lists any track it could not match.
- 1
Connect Amazon Music as the source
Open FreeYourMusic, tap the Amazon Music tile on the "Select source" screen and sign in on the Amazon Music sign-in page. FreeYourMusic does not store your Amazon Music password.
- 2
Choose YouTube as the destination
On the "Select destination" screen, tap YouTube and sign in. FreeYourMusic needs access to your YouTube library to create the playlists there.
- 3
Select what to move
Tick the playlists you want on YouTube. Use the filters and the search field to find them, or select everything to move your whole Amazon Music library at once.
- 4
Start the transfer and check the results
Tap "Begin transfer". FreeYourMusic matches every song on YouTube, 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.

Move, convert or import: one transfer from Amazon Music to YouTube
Whatever you call it, it is the same job. You can move your Amazon Music playlists to YouTube, convert a Amazon Music playlist into a YouTube playlist, or import your Amazon Music library into YouTube. FreeYourMusic does all three in one transfer, for one playlist or for a library of thousands of songs.

Moving from Amazon Music to YouTube, explained
Moving from Amazon Music to YouTube turns your audio collection into something you can watch as well as hear — YouTube is a video platform first, so your library arrives as playlists of music videos, official uploads and live performances. FreeYourMusic reads your Amazon Music library through Amazon’s official sign-in and recreates your playlists on YouTube.
This guide explains what transfers, what cannot, how each song is matched, how long it takes, and how the two platforms really differ. If you just want to begin, install FreeYourMusic, connect both accounts and choose what to move — the detail is below.
What transfers to YouTube, and what does not
Your Amazon Music playlists become YouTube playlists, keeping their names and order. Liked songs do not transfer to YouTube. Move all your playlists or pick playlists individually, with counts shown before you commit.
Some things do not translate. Amazon’s auto-generated stations and Alexa routines are Amazon features, purchased or uploaded MP3s have no streaming equivalent, and podcasts do not cross over. Because YouTube is video-first, some audio-only tracks appear as official art-track videos rather than traditional songs.
How FreeYourMusic matches your tracks
For each Amazon Music song, FreeYourMusic finds the closest corresponding video or track on YouTube, preferring the ISRC recording code where possible and otherwise comparing title, artist, album and duration. That is how your playlists arrive pointing at the right songs rather than unrelated clips.
YouTube is vast and sometimes messy — the same song can exist as an official video, a lyric video, a live take and a fan upload. FreeYourMusic favours official sources and flags anything ambiguous for one-tap Rematch, so you can swap in the exact video you had in mind.
How long does an Amazon Music to YouTube 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 device. Start it on your laptop and check progress on your phone; it is the same account and the same transfer.
Amazon Music vs YouTube: what actually changes
This is a shift from a dedicated music service to a video platform. On YouTube your playlists play as music videos, live performances and official uploads, all free with ads. For people who like to watch as much as listen — or who want live footage the studio services skip — that is the appeal.
What you give up is Amazon Music’s Ultra HD lossless, its Alexa and Echo integration and clean offline audio. YouTube’s recommendations pull from everything you watch, not just music, so it feels broader and less focused. Many people convert Amazon Music playlists into YouTube libraries precisely for that video and live side.
Do you need to keep Amazon Music while you transfer?
Yes — keep Amazon Music active until the transfer is finished and checked. FreeYourMusic reads your Amazon Music library while building your YouTube playlists, and keeping both live means you never lose access mid-move. Cancel only once you are satisfied.
YouTube itself is free, so no subscription is needed to receive the transfer, though YouTube Premium removes ads and adds background play. Both services connect through their own official sign-in, and your password is never shared with FreeYourMusic.
Tips for a clean migration
Trim your Amazon Music playlists first so you are not converting dead ones into YouTube clutter. Move a couple of playlists to start and check them on YouTube — because it is video-first, confirm the matched entries are the official songs you wanted rather than covers or clips.
When it is done, run through the Rematch list and swap out any wrong videos. If you plan to use YouTube for background listening on mobile, consider Premium so playback continues with the screen off, and save your key playlists for offline viewing.
Keeping Amazon Music and YouTube in sync afterwards
A one-time move is not your only option. If you want both, FreeYourMusic’s Auto-Sync mirrors the libraries on a schedule so a track you add to an Amazon Music playlist becomes a new entry in your YouTube playlists automatically.
And the transfer runs the other way too, from YouTube back to Amazon Music, if you change your mind. Your collection stays portable. Download FreeYourMusic, connect Amazon Music and YouTube, and see how much comes across — the free tier lets you try first.
