So easy

The answer to moving between streaming services! Don't get locked in. So easy :)

Gives an error getting a user token when trying to connect my Apple Music

My Spotify hooked up well, but Apple Music doesn’t work for some reason. You have to fix this.

Works well but needs improvement

Took a couple of days & a lot of refreshing to get all my playlists to show up. Then once they did it took me two tries to get my playlist to actually transfer, but once it did it worked pretty well. A few of the songs were missing even though they’re available on both platforms. I don’t mind having to go in & add them myself bc it’s not many but it’d be nice if SongShift gave us a list of songs that did not successfully transfer so I don’t have to look through the entire playlist. The app does what it’s supposed to, it just takes some time to get it to work. Customer support was also not very helpful in their first reply to my email trying to get help & then never answered me back.

Excellent Developer and App

I bought the pro version so that I could transfer my Deezer playlists to Apple Music. Initially it only showed 25 of my playlists whereas I have over 100. So I sent a message to the developer and was not really expecting any response. However I received a response in less than 24 hours together with a guarantee that an update would be put through to fix this error within 24 hours. This developer updated the app the next day and I have now managed to transfer all my playlists without any problems. The app worked perfectly and the customer service from the developer was outstanding. It is so rare to get such good service and quick responses nowadays. I recommend anyone who wants to transfer playlists to use this app and spend the price of a beer on buying the pro version.

perfect

Did exactly as it say it does, no hassle, easy to use, brilliant!

Excellent app. Would just like it to be more autonomous

Very good app and the update is refreshing. I do wish it was a bit more autonomous, for example - not needing to review matches on every shift, I have around 10 playlist I’m shifting and having to review every playlist is repetitive. I wish there was an option to automate the reviewing stage to ignore fails and processes the matches, there could be an audit of previous fails for future review
- Apple Music sometimes disconnects but the only warning is unmatched songs rather than a warning saying the service has been disconnected. I assume this is an issue with Apple Music rather than the app but a warning would be helpful.

I still believe this is the best app to shift your music library and playlist and would recommend.

The devil is in the details!

Works VERY well, I can’t say it doesn’t. The UI is well put together and very easy to navigate. My only; and I mean ONLY complaint, is that sometimes the “matched” files that the app picks are incorrect matches. Only a few per each “shift” but when it is wrong, it’s way off. This could also be the fault of the music service that is receiving the transfer, the only reason I think it’s this app is because I am able to type in the same search string and the first result is the correct one.

Would recommend this app over any alternatives!

Amazing service and even better team!

What started out as a great but buggy app has grown into so much more. I got this app thinking it would fail to do what I had wanted. This was the first app I found to actually be able to help me keep concurrent music playlist between two different apps. In the beginning it would crash every once in a while so I had rated it four stars before. The team however provide constant updates and support for this app and each new update adds another cool feature and makes it more stable. I now have absolutely no problems when I use this app and couldn’t possibly recommend this more. SongShift is amazing and I’m glad I found it!

Response from developer

Thank you for the great feedback. We're glad you're enjoying SongShift.

Won’t let me import without Apple Music subscription

It won’t let me import my music to iTunes because I don’t have a iTunes subscription which is annoying me could you try fix that please?

Pretty great, some things that aren’t

The service really works well, although sometimes it takes a song from one service and puts a different song of the same name on the other service, even though the first song is available on the new service. Also, if the shift stops, and you try to just restart it, it won’t work sometimes. The service duplicates songs if they’re already on the destination playlist, which is something to keep in mind. Overall, it works the way it should, if not for some bugs.
