Rearrange tracks inside playlist ON PHONE

[metteottosson]

Hi! Anyone know if there is a way to rearrange the songs in a plylist on the phone, like on a computer? For example in my Shazam playlist (that fills automatically) the newest song is in the bottom of the looong list, and it is a pain in the b*tt to scroll instead of just clicking newest date in the list menu. Please heeeelp 😉

Hey there @metteottosson,

Thanks for reaching out about this here in the Community. 

No worries, you can edit the songs' order in your playlists by opening the playlist on your phone > tapping on the 3 dots > Edit playlist. There, you'll be able to hold and drag the song to the place you'd like it to be. 

Additionally, you can sort your playlists by Recently added so that the recently added songs can be at the top. You just need to follow these steps. 

If you have any questions or need a hand with anything else, just let us know.

I cannot move songs on my playlist and I have deleted and reinstalled app. I have latest iPad and operating system. So frustrating. Paying premium without premium service.

No this is exactly the problem I have. I don’t pay for premium but this isn’t a premium feature is it? I’ve heard it’s not. It doesn’t give me the option to rearrange the songs in any of my playlists at all when I click on edit. So frustrating

Hey there @jacobtong, 

Thanks for getting in touch about this and welcome to the Community. 

Would you mind sending us a short screen recording of what exactly happens when you try editing the playlist? You can attach it to your next response by using the Insert Video option in the post editor. You can also upload it to Google Drive and share the link with us (make sure the video has the permissions for anyone to see it).

 We'll be on the lookout.

By holding down and dragging on a song you can put it anywhere in the playlist just for the neatness aspect.

Yes, so if you have 700 songs on your playlist, you can grab the 3 bars of one song and drag if to five minutes to another place.  SUCH a sophisticated APP....gad, for all the money we spend on the app, give your customers something better!!! Even the ability to reverse sort or go alphabetically.  I'm really tired of hearing the same 10 songs on my big playlist.
