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

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

Moving from Apple Music to Amazon Music, explained
If your home has drifted toward Alexa and Echo speakers, moving your music to Amazon Music makes everything answer to the same voice. FreeYourMusic reads your Apple Music library through Apple’s official sign-in and rebuilds it inside Amazon Music — playlists and liked songs — so you do not retype a single track.
This guide explains what transfers, what cannot, how songs are matched, how long it takes, and how the two services genuinely differ. If you just want to begin, install FreeYourMusic, connect both accounts and choose what to move — the detail is below for when you want it.
What transfers to Amazon Music, and what does not
Your playlists move with names and order preserved, and liked songs arrive as saved tracks. Saved albums and followed artists do not transfer to Amazon Music. Move everything at once or pick playlists individually, with track counts shown before you commit.
A few things stay behind. Local files or uploaded iTunes tracks are not part of the streaming catalogue and cannot be matched. Apple’s editorial mixes and Replay are unique to Apple Music, and podcasts sit in a separate Apple app, so none of those cross into Amazon Music.
How FreeYourMusic matches your tracks
Each Apple Music song is matched to the same recording in Amazon Music, preferring the ISRC code assigned to every recording and falling back to title, artist, album and duration otherwise. That precision keeps your matched library pointing at the right versions.
No two catalogues are identical, so the occasional regional release or odd remaster may lack a perfect counterpart. FreeYourMusic never silently drops a track — anything uncertain is flagged for one-tap Rematch with suggestions, so you stay in control of every substitution.
How long does an Apple Music to Amazon 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 Mac and check progress on your phone; it is the same account and the same transfer.
Apple Music vs Amazon Music: what actually changes
On sound, these two are closer than most pairings — Apple Music offers lossless, hi-res and Spatial Audio at no extra cost, and Amazon Music Unlimited counters with HD and Ultra HD lossless. The key is landing on the right Amazon tier: the version bundled with Prime is more limited than full Unlimited, which unlocks the complete catalogue and top-tier audio.
The real difference is the ecosystem. Apple Music is built around Siri and Apple devices; Amazon Music is built around Alexa and Echo. If your daily listening happens by asking a speaker to play something across the house, Amazon’s voice integration is where it feels most at home.
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 Amazon Music, and keeping both live means you never lose access mid-move. Cancel Apple Music only once you are satisfied.
On the destination side, choose the tier that fits: the Prime-bundled version limits full on-demand play of a large library, so Amazon Music Unlimited is the better home for a big transferred collection. 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 listen to. Transfer a couple of favourites and check them in Amazon Music before moving everything — it is the quickest way to trust the match quality.
When the transfer finishes, resolve any flagged tracks in the Rematch list. If you will listen mostly through Alexa, set up your voice shortcuts, and download your key playlists for offline listening so your commute is covered from day one.
Keeping Apple Music and Amazon Music in sync afterwards
A one-time move is not your only option. If your household straddles both services, FreeYourMusic’s Auto-Sync mirrors the two libraries, pushing new saves across on a schedule so a song added on Apple Music quietly appears in Amazon Music too.
And the transfer runs the other way as well, from Amazon Music back to Apple Music, if you change your mind. Your collection stays portable. Download FreeYourMusic, connect Apple Music and Amazon Music, and see how much comes across — the free tier lets you try first.
