My Question or Issue

My phone has 2 playlists - Liked Songs and the one I made called Project All. I was able to sort the songs in both by artist. I have the same 2 playlists on my desktop and Chrome web apps, but cannot sort any of those. I'm thinking about deleting both lists from my desktop and Chrome web apps. I would only do this so that I can replace the deleted lists with the sorted lists from my phone. Is there a way to do this?

Hi @Agent_Underdog,

Thanks for posting in the Community and welcome.

First up, your saved content, including your playlists, sync across all the devices where you open your account. This means that if you delete the playlists from the desktop app or Web Player, this will also delete them from your phone, so we don't recommend doing that. 

Now, you can Sort your playlists by Artist from the Desktop app: 

 

However, there's no option to sort the playlists by Artist from the Web Player, but you can go to the playlist and just drag the songs in the order you prefer. You can also check out more info about how to Sort and filter your content here.

Let us know if you have any questions.
