How to transfer playlists from YouTube Music to Amazon Music
Four steps. The same on iPhone, Android, Mac, Windows and Linux.
Quick answer
To transfer YouTube Music to Amazon Music, install FreeYourMusic, select YouTube 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 YouTube Music as the source
Open FreeYourMusic, tap the YouTube Music tile on the "Select source" screen and sign in on the YouTube Music sign-in page. FreeYourMusic does not store your YouTube 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 YouTube 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.

Move, convert or import: one transfer from YouTube Music to Amazon Music
Whatever you call it, it is the same job. You can move your YouTube Music playlists to Amazon Music, convert a YouTube Music playlist into a Amazon Music playlist, or import your YouTube 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 YouTube Music to Amazon Music, explained
Moving from YouTube Music to Amazon Music trades YouTube’s sprawling catalogue for Alexa convenience and Ultra HD lossless. FreeYourMusic reads your YouTube Music library through Google’s official sign-in and rebuilds it inside Amazon Music — your playlists — with no retyping.
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 Amazon Music, and what does not
Your playlists move with names and order preserved. Liked songs, saved albums and followed artists do not transfer to Amazon Music. Move all your playlists or choose playlists individually, with counts shown before you commit.
A couple of things to flag. Personal uploads from YouTube Music are your own files, not catalogue tracks, so they cannot be matched. YouTube-only live cuts, remixes and rare uploads may lack an Amazon counterpart, and podcasts do not cross over.
How FreeYourMusic matches your tracks
Each YouTube 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 on the right versions.
Because YouTube Music holds several versions of a song, some entries map neatly and some do not. FreeYourMusic never silently drops a track — anything uncertain is flagged for one-tap Rematch, so you stay in control.
How long does a YouTube 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 laptop and check progress on your phone; it is the same account and the same transfer.
YouTube Music vs Amazon Music: what actually changes
The trade is reach for polish and voice. YouTube Music has a free tier and a catalogue reaching into live sets, remixes and rarities, plus personal uploads. Amazon Music’s best experience sits on the Unlimited tier, with HD and Ultra HD lossless and deep Alexa and Echo integration.
On experience, you swap YouTube Music’s ties to YouTube and Google for Amazon’s voice-first control across the house. If asking a speaker to play your library matters more than chasing YouTube-only versions, Amazon Music is the reason to move — just aim for Unlimited over the Prime-bundled tier.
Do you need to keep YouTube Music while you transfer?
Yes — keep YouTube Music active until the transfer is finished and checked. FreeYourMusic reads your YouTube Music library while copying it into Amazon Music, and keeping both live means you never lose access mid-move.
On the destination side, Amazon Music Unlimited is the better home for a large transferred library than the more limited Prime-bundled version. Both services connect through their own official sign-in, and your password is never shared with FreeYourMusic.
Tips for a clean migration
Tidy your YouTube Music playlists first so you carry only what you actually play. Transfer a couple of favourite playlists and check them in Amazon Music before moving the rest — it is the quickest way to trust the match quality.
When the transfer finishes, resolve the Rematch list, noting any personal uploads that could not follow. If you will listen through Alexa, set up your voice shortcuts, and download your key playlists for offline listening.
Keeping YouTube Music and Amazon Music in sync afterwards
A one-time move is not your only option. If your household straddles both, FreeYourMusic’s Auto-Sync mirrors the two libraries on a schedule so a song added on YouTube Music appears in Amazon Music without effort.
And the transfer runs the other way too, from Amazon Music back to YouTube Music, if you change your mind. Your collection stays portable. Download FreeYourMusic, connect YouTube Music and Amazon Music, and see how much comes across — the free tier lets you try first.
