Moving Years of Playlists? Use This No-Regrets Transfer Checklist

1. Why this keeps happening

A successful transfer screen does not mean a perfect library. Catalogs and identifiers differ, so a studio track can become a live cut, a clean edit can replace the original, and unavailable songs can vanish quietly.

2. The shortest useful route

Catch missing tracks, wrong versions, and privacy risks before canceling the old service.

• Back up source links or screenshots and record every playlist count
• Check the destination app for a built-in transfer before granting a third party access
• Review unmatched tracks, duplicates, remasters, live cuts, and region gaps before canceling

3. Check before you commit

YouTube Music explicitly notes that future changes do not auto-sync and some songs may not match. Keep the original library until the audit is done.

Transfer one 20-track favorites list first, then use MUZPICKR to recover any official versions that failed to match.
