Reorder playlists

My Question or Issue

 

How do I reorder the playlists within the 'Your Library' section?

 

I have a lot of playlists, only a couple of which I have saved for offline use

(when abroad without wifi/data). On my laptop I have these near the top for easy access however on the Android it appears there are no controls as to where they appear. It seems totally random, not alphabetical or last updated etc...

 

I do not want to scroll through all my playlists looking for the ones I want every time I open the app. I tried searching for this problem but all the issues I found were regarding the order of songs inside a playlist not the order of playlists.

 

Thanks!

Hey @Maxwelln01,

 

Thanks for reaching out to us about this 🙂

 

On the Android app, when you go to Your Library > Playlists, if you drag the screen down you will see a bar appear with a tab to the right called Filters.

 

From there, you can choose to filter your playlists according to several criteria, including Custom order, which is the order in which you've sorted your playlists on desktop.

 

Hope that makes sense! Let us know if there's anything else we can help with 🙂

This is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you 🙂

Good looking out Fam, this was driving me bonkers!

This does not work. I can't see anything to drag or see filters 

Hey there @Tar999,


Thanks for the post!

 

On Mobile you can't drag and and re-arrange playlists in Your Library. This is possible only in the Desktop app.

 

What you can do on Mobile is Pin your top 4 playlists at the top of the section. To do this simply hold and drag to the right. You'll then see a green Pin icon.

 

Hope this info helps 🙂

 

Cheers.
