Spotify add multiple songs to playlist android

Spotify playlists are so versicle and fun to use to help create mood and atmosphere be it during a study session for one, a party, or a casual dinner. Many people however do not know that you can add multiple songs at a time to a playlist and cutting time on creating it that way as we usually enjoy more than one song from an album for example.

You will need to be on a computer to add multiple songs to a playlist as this is not currently possible in mobile apps. Adding multiple songs is easy on the Spotify desktop application either on windows or mac and you can do it on Chromebook if you use the android app.

Adding Multiple Songs to a Spotify Playlist

Navigate to the page where you want to copy music; this could be an album or a playlist, or your favorites, etc. Then press and hold Ctrl on Windows or Command on Mac then use your trackpad or mouse to select the songs you want.

Once you’ve selected your songs you have a number of options for what you can do;

  1. You can copy them (Crtl/command + C) to paste into another playlist (Crtl/command + V)
