What transfers from YouTube Music to Deezer
Everything FreeYourMusic moves for you in one click — no manual rebuilds.
Moving from YouTube 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. For a YouTube Music listener, it offers a more focused music-first app with better audio. FreeYourMusic reads your YouTube Music library through Google’s official sign-in and rebuilds your playlists, liked songs, saved albums and followed artists 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, saved albums come across and followed artists carry over. Move everything or choose playlists individually, with counts shown before you commit.
Some things cannot follow. Personal uploads from YouTube Music are your own files, not catalogue tracks, and YouTube-only live cuts or remixes may lack a Deezer counterpart. Deezer’s own Flow is a separate feature you build up over time, and podcasts do not cross over.
How FreeYourMusic matches your tracks
Each YouTube 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 mainstream match rates tend to be high.
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 keep control over every substitution.
How long does a YouTube 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 laptop and follow progress on your phone; it is the same account and the same transfer.
YouTube Music vs Deezer: what actually changes
The trade is reach for a cleaner music-first experience. YouTube Music has a free tier and a catalogue reaching into live and rare uploads, plus personal uploads. Deezer offers a big mainstream catalogue with Flow, strong regional coverage and lossless HiFi in FLAC.
On experience, you swap YouTube Music’s Google ties and sheer breadth for Deezer’s focus and better audio. If you want a dedicated music app with a smart recommendation engine and lossless option, Deezer is an easy landing spot.
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 Deezer, and keeping both live means you never lose access mid-move.
Both services have free tiers, so neither side needs a paid plan for the move, while Deezer’s HiFi tier unlocks lossless FLAC. Both 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. Because it holds so many versions of popular songs, transfer a couple of playlists first and confirm the matches in Deezer are the studio recordings you wanted.
When the transfer finishes, resolve any flagged tracks in the Rematch list, noting personal uploads that could not follow. Then let Flow learn your taste, turn on HiFi for lossless, and download your key playlists for offline listening.
Keeping YouTube Music and Deezer in sync afterwards
A one-time move is not your only option. If you are trialling Deezer while keeping YouTube 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 YouTube Music, if you change your mind. Your library stays portable. Download FreeYourMusic, connect YouTube Music and Deezer, and see how much comes across — the free tier lets you try first.
