Making a playlist
A playlist is your own running order — a few tracks you want back to back, for a particular time of day or a particular week. Making one takes a name; filling it happens from the player.
Signed in. Playlists belong to your account and are not shared unless you share them.
Steps
- 1
Open the Library tab and find Your playlists.
You should see · A Create tile ① sitting where your playlists will be.
What it means · Playlists live on the Library tab rather than on your profile, because they are for listening rather than for showing.
- 2
Press Create.
You should see · A sheet slides up asking for a name ①.
What it means · Nothing else is asked for. A playlist has no cover to choose and no description to write — the name is the whole thing, so make it one you will recognise at 11pm.
- 3
Type a name ① and confirm ②.
You should see · The sheet closes and the playlist appears, empty, under Your playlists.
What it means · It is created empty on purpose. You add tracks as you come across them rather than choosing everything up front.
- 4
Add tracks from the player.
You should see · The add-to-playlist action beside the track title asks which playlist to put it in.
What it means · There is no "edit playlist" screen where you pick from a list — you add a track while you are listening to it, which is when you actually know whether it belongs.
Every field explained
What the playlist is called. The only thing you choose.
Example: Wind down
How to tell it worked
- ✓The playlist appears under Your playlists on the Library tab.
- ✓Adding a track from the player offers it as a destination.
Problems
The playlist stays empty
Why · Tracks are added from the player, not from the playlist itself.
Fix · Open a track, then use the add-to-playlist action beside its title.
A playlist track will not play offline
Why · Adding to a playlist is not downloading — the two are separate.
Fix · Download each track you need from the player; Downloads is what plays with no connection.
